Couldn’t highly recommend The Lion and the staff any more. My father has stayed here now twice whilst coming to the village to see me.
The rooms are beautifully done and the food is superb!!
If you are planning to come down and see the Waddesdon Manor then make your visit even better by eating here and stay in one of the rooms as you won’t regret it.
Thank you to everyone for making my dads visit great 😊

We've just had an amazing meal cooked by The Lion chef,
Scampi, just the right amount , lovely, tasty fat chips. Arrived hot, well presented even though it's in a take away box.
Beef burger meal, again well presented, cooked well, plenty of big fat tasty chips.
Three meals for £30.00 an absolute bargain, and we kept it local. Thanks for all involved.
