John & Pablo are excellent hosts. Very friendly and helpful. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was very tasty. We would definitely stay again and thoroughly recommend the property.

This was a perfect place to stop in Newark. The owners welcome you so warmly and you feel like you are family whilst there. The room was so lovely and the bath was wonderful. Breakfast was cooked to perfection and the homemade marmalade was excellent. We certainly will go back there again.

From the moment we arrived and the welcome we received until our departure; John and Pablo were perfect hosts.Their attention to detail is exceptional. They have the most beautiful and tasteful home which is a privilege to experience. We enjoyed a most delicious breakfast before leaving for our onward journey . We look forward to returning for our next stay in the summer. Thank you so much. Mick and Elizabeth

Perfect hosts, very friendly and helpful. Beautiful room and excellent breakfasts.

We needed a stop on a cross country trip, and found this little gem. A lovely listed Georgian house with a very nice garden. The owner was very welcoming, the room was lovely and the breakfast delicious! We'll certainly go again.

An absolutely amazing b&b. Pablo and John are the nicest people and made us feel welcome. The house is gorgeous and the rooms are beautiful. Honestly I can’t wait to visit again.

Amazing friendly welcoming guest house

We had a great overnight stay at The Lions and John & Pablo were excellent hosts and couldn't have done more to make us feel welcome. The room was spotless; the bed incredibly comfortable and the full English breakfast was superb. We will definitely stay here on our next trip to Newark and a big thanks again to our hosts for making it such a pleasurable experience.

Wonderful little B&B run by John and Pablo. Beautiful room, huge bathroom and a very comfortable bed. Great breakfast and excellent hospitality. Short walk into Newark Town. Remains of the old castle on the river are worth a visit. Lovely river walk.

A lovely welcome and excellent care and attention for our overnight stay. A very comfortable stay in a tasteful and well cared for home. Wide choice of options for breakfast -the quality was superb and endorsed by the opportunity to enjoy it outdoors on the patio. Thank you

ten out of ten, fabulous hosts, very comfortable clean room and excellent breakfast. Will use again when travelling to newark.

Pablo and John were the perfect hosts, lovely glass of wine in the garden and insights into where to eat that evening. Immaculate room, tasty breakfast and a warm farewell.

A very clean, comfortable night’s stay. Clean, crisp white bedding, slept so well. It’s a Grade II listed Georgian building. Perfectly cooked breakfast with very personal touches. Loved the interior decor and furniture very tastefully done. Garden to the rear is stunning. Pablo and John are so hospitable and the attention to detail is very evident. Pablo, I loved talking gardening and all things interior with you. Thanks for directing us to the perfect antique shop in Newark. Manjit & Santokh
