Perfect for our stay in the area

Pros: It was in a perfect location for us on our way to Cambridge after visiting Ely. Nice big garden. Very peaceful and good home made food. Room was comfortable and we both slept well. Good breakfast and we would stay again if ever in the area

Lovely traditional pub welcome

Pros: Very friendly welcome from staff and customers alike. The pub was better than expected. I like the local pub feel in a quiet location. From communication before arrival to information on arrival I felt valued as a patron. Very reasonable breakfast and the burger and chips was juice fresh and tasty. 😋. I would recommend as a a good on route to local places I had a meeting in Kings Lynn and this marked a great not to far off my route stop. I'd like to come again and would recommend it.

Cons: Unfortunately I couldn't stay longer! I couldn't have another burger as kitchen was closed on Friday however a takeaway van sits in the car park and they had on offer a very nice sounding Yorkshire pud wrap with brisket. Having eaten lunchtime that was more than I needed but looked good.

Overnight stay. Staff very friendly and accommodating.

Pros: We had to leave very early so didn’t have breakfast. Our room was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. The red Lion is excellent value for money and I highly recommend.
