Stayed on a routine trip to Melton Mowbray. The White Lion was reasonably priced, warm and comfortable, with WiFi that worked well enough for me to work using Teams. The owners and their staff were friendly and helpful. The English breakfast was cooked to perfection and as it was included in the price just making it very good value. I travel every week, and it is nice to find a warm room as well as a warm welcome.

White Lion was brilliant.

Brilliant stay and food. We had our dog with us and they could not have been more dog friendly. We had an evening meal and it was excellent, best cheesecake ever!! All staff were friendly and helpful, could not recommend this pub enough.

Lovely old fashioned pub with pretty hanging baskets . Our room was large and nicely furnished . The bed was one of the most comfortable we have ever slept on and the ensuite had a bath and shower which was fantastic . We couldn't fault the fish and chips that we had in their restaurant and there were 3 choices of real ale on handpump , which made us happy. Breakfast was served between 7.30 and 9.30 and was excellent. The only downside was the road noise in the morning , but we will be happy to return.

Lovely place to stay

I had an overnight stay with my dad. We live a long distance from each other so decided to meet midway. The accommodation and food were excellent and the staff were very friendly and professional. This is a delightful place to stay. I will definitely go again.

The Pub was clean and tidy, the flower display outside was outstanding, a lot of time and effort went into the display all around the pub. The staff were very friendly and watched the football with locals in the dining area they were very very friendly as well. will say here again.10/10
