Beautifully decorated with high quality finish. Spacious room and large bathroom
A Little way out of Cowbridge. States breakfast is included but only toast and cereal on offer from shared kitchen area. Pop up restaurant on premises had lovely food but offering very expensive - £35pp to £65ppfor a main course. Our steak was delicious but cost of meal was expensive compared to wait staff service. Both waitresses were lovely but if you are paying too dollar would expect not to have dirty dishes stacked in front or me or to have vinegar given in sarsons bottles. Need to rethink their product offering.

Beautiful pub and rooms. Very friendly and helpful check in. Beautiful rooms. Very clean and the decor was stunning. Soap, shampoo and conditioner all smelt amazing. Excellent food and drink. Very comfortable bed and pillows - slept amazing!
There wasn’t much parking so had to park out on the road. We pre rang and asked if they had an iron as going to a wedding and they said they did, however when we got there they did not. Loved the kitchen outside the room, although the pastries weren’t great where had been left over night. Nothing huge, small teething problems which could make more value for money. However overall had a great stay and would stay again.

Booked the White Lion for overnight stay ,Birthday treat for my Husband,we had booked Hensol Castle for gin making experience which is about 3.5 miles away,Oscar very kindly offered to take us to the Distillery,we’d booked dinner for 7pm at the White Lion the gin tour was a much longer experience and didn’t finish until just before 6pm…all taxi numbers we tried were not available ..we were about to cancel our restaurant booking and Oscar came up trumps and sent his partner to pick us up…we were so grateful and very impressed with the help and kindness. The at the White Lion/ Rock and Scallop exceeded our expectations, the staff were all without exception,friendly attentive even though completely rushed off their feet with service. Highly recommend for overnight stay,our room as more of a suite ,very high quality bath products,Bed linen etc ,croissants,coffee,tea,jams and yogurt with granola set on the landing with small kitchen area..Fabulous stay..many Thanks again to Oscar and his Team!

A quite exceptional 'boutique' hotel. Only two rooms so book up early if you want to experience this hotel! beautifully furnished and finished bedroom, comfortable, spacious and quiet (despite being above a thriving country 'pub'). And the food served in the restaurant (again best to book in advance) - by Rock & Scallop - was worthy of Michelin stars. Simply put - "Excellent"
Breakfast - continental style Croissants and coffees, a little disappointing at the time, but on reflection probably about right and in keeping with the hotel offering - laid up in a kitchenette with table and chairs outside the bedroom - or eaten in the bedroom - up to your personal choice. Towels could be renewed each day (chose not to) but bed was not 'made-up' - I think we disturbed the 'maid' returning from our morning walk around the neighbourhood. You will need a car and 'reserved' parking would be an improvement as the parking next to the hotel fills with pub attendees and the 'actively busy' village hall.

Fabulous welcome from Oscar, who showed us to our room. Well what can I say the Green Room is beautifully decorated and so spacious, the bed is a super king with lovely crisp bedding, my husband and I both wished that we'd booked for 2 nights. The room had a separate lounge area and a lovely large bathroom and the products in the bathroom, smelled amazing. I have totally been blown away with this accommodation and wouldn't hesitate to book again, only a 20-25 minute journey by car into Cardiff.
Breakfast was continental croissant/pastries and tea/coffee. A toaster and slices of bread would have been great, especially as there is nobody available to make breakfast.

The location was really good for us, the premises are excellent and nothing seemed to be to much trouble. Someone has put a lot of thought into making this a very pleasant place to stay.
Due to circumstances beyond their control, at the time of our visit there were no kitchen facilities for the evening meal and we had to eat elsewhere. However the local knowledge of where to go and the offer of making a reservation for us was very much appreciated. Also the room on bookings.com was advertised as having a TV, but neither room had this facility; not a big issue, but would have been better if made aware of this at the time of booking.

The White Lion is a lovely place. Officially its a pub restaurant with a few rooms which have been beautifully decorated with most generous use of space. Gorgeous comfy bed, lovely sofa and a very warm welcome from Oscar. The room had a little adjoining kitchen in which I could make coffee (Nespresso machine with lots of capsules) and enjoy a continental breakfast at my leisure (there was a little table). All in all a lovely stay with such friendly staff who seemed to appreciate the place as much as I did!

The room is exceptional and met all our requirements, fantastic location and property is of a very high standard .
Breakfast was pastry and coffee ok for us but probably a little sparse for some clients. .. The only two areas to be noted was the tap in the bathroom is loose and the rug in the kitchen/common area slips under-foot and could be a potential danger.

The room and kitchen area was beautifully decorated and spotless. Fresh flowers in the room were a nice touch. The kitchen area was lovely and the breakfast was really nice (selection of pastries, fresh fruit, overnight oats, granola and fresh orange juice). Oscar, the manager, was really friendly, had great local knowledge and made us feel very welcome.
There was no food available in the pub at the time when we visited. A little too far to walk into neighbouring Cowbridge (50 mins walk)

The whole place is very well decorated, the room we had was really nice and the bed was so comfy and very comfortable pillows The staff all very friendly and a big shout out to Mathew in the Kitchen for helping us with directions and the food is just amazing 👍😀
Actually, there was nothing that we didn't like. Although it would be great if they did do breakfast but they do leave pastry's out and you can make a coffee.
