Rooms at The Red Lion, Stretham come with a flat-screen TV, a writing desk and tea and coffee making facilities. Some also feature a fireplace and they all include a private bathroom fitted with a bathtub or a shower and a hairdryer.

The staff was friendly and accommodating without exception. Shower was excellent. Food delicious. We had a room that opened onto the outdoor patio, which I thought may potentially result in smoke or noise problems, but happily there were none. I enjoyed hearing the murmurs of happy conversation, and seeing the dogs that came onto the property with their owners. Ceiling fan was really appreciated during the warm spell. Well stocked convenience store just across the street. Very easy access to bus stops.

Guests can enjoy a stay in any of our 17 comfortable bedrooms which range from single and double rooms with shared bathrooms which are situated on the second floor and some rooms have restricted headroom to doubles, twins and family suites with private bathrooms and even a four-poster bed! Rooms on the first and second floor are accessed via stairs only.

My room was spotless & my bed & pillows were incredibly comfortable. There were plenty of biscuits & tea/coffee making facilities, which was lovely. And breakfast was amazing. My breakfast server was really lovely & got me everything I asked for, including extra biscuits. I was visiting my sisters & will hopefully stay there again next time.

Looking for a holiday home?

Great for families or large parties, holiday homes are privately owned accommodation, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities for self-catering, although breakfast may be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different to apartments.
