The Lions

The Lions is 5 star for us. We felt so well looked after during our 2 night stay. Pablo and John pay attention to the details that matter, so welcoming, beautiful decor, fantastic breakfast, lovely garden area: a truly wonderful place to stay.

Wowsa! Beautiful house and garden. Very nice area as well.Not too far to walk into the town if you needed to. Lovely room, fantastic hosts, great breakfast! Even gave us a glass of wine at night! Hosts were super attentive! What more would you need!

Wow, what an amazing stay. The hosts John and Pablo were so welcoming. They even invited us to join them and their friends for drinks & dessert as they finished their meal. The b&b is outstanding and no attention to detail is left. Our room was out of this world, with the en-suite being bigger than the actual room! Pablo cooked us a delicious breakfast the following morning, catering for our every whim. I can't recommend The Lions enough. What a wonderful visit 💖

Lovely stay for the wife’s birthday just before Christmas. John and Pablo are the perfect hosts in this lovely hotel offering a fantastic breakfast to start your day. The hotel has plenty of character and is only 10 minutes walk from the town centre.

I was travelling for business and arrived in the dark, I was flustered as I couldn't find it and Pablo stood outside with an umbrella and looked out for me which was so nice. Nothing was too much trouble, from carrying my case, shutting my blinds, showing me how to work different elements of the room and asking what I would like for breakfast. As a woman travelling alone I look endlessly for places wuth great reviews so that I feel safe and I can honestly say I'm so glad I selected here! The reviews really don't lie! Thanks so much for accommodating me and a lovely welcome. The bedding is AMAZING, high thread count so super soft and luxurious, the room was SPOTLESSLY clean, it was nice and warm and just overall a beautiful space to relax in.

Absolutely lovely b and b well worth the 5 star rating ,warm welcome and stylish clean rooms ,walking distance to Town centre John and Pablo are superb hosts Best kippers and scrambled eggs for breakfast Highly recommended

My room was beautiful, with tasteful antique furniture, fascinating artwork and a beautiful colour palette throughout. Very comfortable bed and exceptional cleanliness. The hosts were lovely to me, and surprised me with a glass of champagne in the evening. The guest lounge is also very serene and cosy, with beautiful furniture and a lovely selection of coffee table books. I enjoyed a sumptuous bath and the perfectly fluffy towels smelled so good I kept going back to sniff them again! Breakfast was cooked perfectly (eggs and smoked salmon) and I was offered more of the lovely granary toast with homemade jam! Coffee was also very good and I was given a view of the beautiful garden. All in all - I can happily say it's the best place I've ever stayed. My only wish is that it wasn't in Newark! I was only here for business. If I'm ever here again I'll book again for sure.

I would Just like to say that we had an absolutely wonderful time staying at The Lions with John and Pablo as our amazing hosts. So welcoming, two beautiful cats, a beautiful house with everything thought of and what a breakfast. The Lions is an excellent experience not just accommodation.

This is a real five star B&B in a beautifully refurbished and furnished Georgian house within walking distance of the town centre. We stayed in the superior king sized room. It was super with a wonderfully comfortable bed and a huge bathroom with bath and shower. John and Pablo are great hosts. Breakfast was first class. There is adequate off road and street parking. If you visit Newark, stay here.
