Somerset Pub, Restaurant, and Accommodation 

The Red Lion Inn is a stunning, thatched Somerset Inn.  Our pub, restaurant, and rooms make this the perfect location for a lunch or dinner, a weekend stay.

Our award-winning pub and restaurant is set in the heart of this idyllic Somerset village a short drive from the Bath and West Showground, open every day of the year and oozing charm with its traditional flagstone floors, open fires, cosy nooks and crannies and pretty garden.  We offer everything from great local ales, inspiring a la carte menu, hearty Sunday lunch, wood-fired pizzas in the Spring and Summer months to individually planned weddings for up to 120 people.

Bar & Restaurant 

Our comprehensive range of local ales, farm produced ciders attract locals and visitors to enjoy the leather sofa in front of the wood burner on a chilly evening in the main bar or settle in the village/locals/secret bar with its low beams, table skittles and piano.

Dining is offered in the relaxed bar or more formal restaurant, with dark wood panelling and roaring open fire, watched over by a huge lion’s head protruding above.

We are fortunate to be located in a part of the country which is rich in fresh ingredients and the Head Chef works with his team to select dishes which reflect the rich pickings of the season.  The menu is a versatile combination of gastro dishes and good pub, which change regularly.  See our sample menus.  We are proud of our Taste of the West Gold Award and consistently good reviews for the quality of our food.

Our outdoor, covered wood-fired pizza kitchen is open from Friday afternoon to Sunday during the Spring and Summer months (check for opening times) to catch a quick pizza on your way home or enjoy a snack on a lazy Sunday afternoon.
