The Red Lion - Inn in Warwickshire
Main Street,, Long Compton, CV36 5JS, Warwickshire
England,
Reino Unido
Dogs are welcome in this ancient warren of a pub where canine sketches adorn the walls; the pub's own pup – is often around. Enter to a mouthwatering aroma of imaginative dishes from chef/co-patron Sarah Keightley. Crispy-battered cod and chips with caper berries and mushy peas are served on The Red Lion Times, and pork tenderloin comes wrapped in pancetta with apple purée and black pudding. A meltingly warm pear and ginger pudding with toffee sauce rounds it all off nicely. Easy to find, this characterful pub has benefited from a wonderful refurb and there's space for everyone, from the pool room to the restaurant to the beautiful flagged bar with fire and wood-burning stove. There are seven bedrooms too, the quietest at the back, which reflect the unfussy approach: natural colours; comfort and attention to quality make up for their size, though the King Room has an ante chamber should anyone snore! It is cheerful, hospitable, and breakfasts are worth waking up for.

- Originally built as a coaching inn in 1748, our Grade II listed free house is located in the Cotswolds, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.
- With tales of witches in the village and a nearby prehistoric stone circle (the Roll Right Stones), there is as much of interest to the historian as there is the tourist.
- The Rollright Stones is a ancient site consisting of three main elements, The Kings Men stone circle, the King Stone, and the Whispering Knights.
- Just a 15 minute drive away in Moreton in Marsh lies Batsford Arboretum - a must-visit for families and a great opportunity to take in the great outdoors!
- Nearby in beautiful Stratford upon Avon you'll find Shakespeare's Birthplace - and you can even take your dog around the gardens!
