Pub History
The Red Lion is located in the beautiful Wiltshire countryside on the A36 from Salisbury to Warminster. We are located on the river Wyle which runs at the bottom of our 1 acre beer garden.The pub burnt down in 1954 and was then rebuilt.Stewart and i purchased the pub on 31st August 2006 with out two sons Luke and Oliver. We have been in the trade for 9 years and decided to move from a town centre pub to a village pub. We closed the Red Lion immediately for complete re-furbishment and we finally re-opened on December 1st 2006. Everything has been completly replaced including 4 letting rooms, kitchen, dining room and all the other fixtures and fittings.
Our Family
Myself and my Husband Stewart have been in the licensing trade for 9 Years in which time we have learnt from the bottom to the top.
I am the cook of the two of us and Stewart is front of house. We have two small boys aged 9 and 4 and they love living in the clean air and beautiful countryside of this wonderful village. Due to us having a small family we really wanted to encourage parent's to bring there chldren to eat day or night and enjoy the surroundings, we offer colouring to all our smaller guests and if there are residents we have a large childrens collection of DVD's for rent.
AWARDS
So far since we have opened we have been awarded 4 starts from The English Tourist Board for our Accommodation, Cask Mark for our Quality Ale and we have just been awarded Best Pub Food 2007 in our area.
