We stayed two nights while visiting the badminton horse trials and the website had seemed very impressive. However we were very disappointed when we arrived. The room smelt musty and was freezing cold and the mattress on the bed was so lumpy i didn't sleep a wink. The furnishings were old and rickety. Also our rooms were not cleaned during... more

We were a party of eleven so took up every room at the White Lion, we were made to feel very welcome, spent quite a lot of time in the bar on Friday and Saturday nights, had great breakfasts, rooms spotless, warm and comfortable, all of us would go back, no longer smoky as previous review, although for the smokers... more

My brother and I arrived at the White Lion after spending THE worst night of our trip in Oxford the evening before. The White Lion was delightful--nothing particularly fancy, but the rooms and bathroom were clean, it was comfortable for sleeping, and although the bar was a little smokey (as every bar in England was!) it had wonderful character.

A group of four of us made a trip to the Gloucestershire to see the spectacular Badminton Horse Trials. We found the 'White Lion Inn' through an internet search where it sounded to be a well run Inn who offererd 'beautiful accomodation' and a 'cosy restaurant' on their webpage. In fact, the 'cost restaurant' was a smoke filled grubby bar.... more

We booked this inn online through an online booking site after reading the reviews, you are made welcome but you soon realise that although the rooms state four posters as though this is a unique attraction the four posters are MFI not real traditional oak four posters. The weather during our stay was unnatural for the UK temperatures well into... more

Four of us attended a training course nearby and travelled up on Sunday evening for the course. We all had terrible nights sleep and checked out the following day to stay at another hotel nearby. All of the four rooms were bad but I had the worse room which was basically directly next to the pub on the same corridoor... more

I stayed at the White Lion Inn for 3 nights (weekdays). The reason for my stay in Cirencester was that I was on a training course, so the accommodation was booked by the company I work for. Overall the place was ok, but I wouldn't choose to stay there again. The room that I was staying in was located in... more
