Pre cruise overnight stay.
Stayed overnight before starting a cruise.
Very good restaurant, service & bar. Excellent breakfast.
Staff friendly. We will definitely stay again as very handy for Southampton.
Staff was incredible, food was delicious and room was small but comfortable and like new. You can’t beat this place for an authentic English countryside experience!
Clean comfortable accommodation, converted stables adjacent to pub set in picturesque village. Great menu, selection of wines and friendly staff. Lovely stay
We really enjoyed our stay. The staff and the food were standout. In fact, food was really really good. Our room was lovely and excellent value.
We stayed for a visit to Hambledon Vineyard which was also fab.
Lovely friendly village pub with restaurant- good selection of beer and lovely garden area. Stayed the night in a comfy well appointed room.
Will definitely be back!
Stayed at the White Lion before heading to Southampton the next day. Perfect stop over before joining our cruise.
A really pleasant night, lovely meal, nice staff & a good breakfast.
We’ll certainly be staying there again.
Very comfy bed. Superb shower, luxury towels. The food in restaurant was excellent. Starter Fish platter to share a great choice and chicken Kiev very tasty. Can see why it is a popular place to eat. Staff friendly and helpful. Good well cooked produce at breakfast. Soberton is a lovey quiet village worth a walk around to see church and the views.
Wonderful one night stay prior to a cruise. Room very clean and bed extremely comfortable.
Ate dinner and breakfast, both meals were delicious and dinner prices ( and drinks) were reasonably priced.
Special thanks to Wendy and Richard for looking after us well. Will definitely book again.
Always lovely to stay here, the most amazingly friendly country pub, with wonderful food. Stay for business few times a year cant fault it. they even go the extra mile by coming in early so we can have breakfast earlier than normal due to 8am meetings. Stay wonderful, and definitely give this place a try (even if its just for food and the ambiance).
A lovely stay in really nice room. My only minor criticism is that if you are tall the ceiling is really low, but there is little the owners can do about that. The staff were wonderful and we did love the room inspite of the ceiling. Food was really good too.
Absolutely fantastic service and food. The evening meal was sorted, great home cooked food at good prices. Mark & Wendy really went the extra mile to make our stay special.
Great room excellent base for a couple of days if touristing in the area
