We stayed in the converted barn part of the inn that is around the corner from the pub. It was really nice, high end, and recently renovated. There was a common room to hang out in too. We had great weather and were able to hang out in the garden but I think it would be really nice in the winter too since there is a fireplace. The pub had excellent food and the staff was great. We loved it and hope to go back.

The most enjoyable and perfect cottage that we have ever stayed in. The hosts were wonderful, the premises were pristine, historic and very comfortable, and the food and drinks were spot on. It was in a quiet village and easy to find and access. Everything was perfect and that is a rarity. We had dinner the night before at their sister hotel and restaurant. It was more lively, which was nice and the food was a nice farm to table experience.

The location was great with good parking available. The room was wonderful, clean and comfortable. The associated Inn had the most amazing menu and was beautiful and exceptional value. Staff were polite, attentive and informative both about the property and menu. They even sold us a painting off the wall as we liked it so much - "Reginald" the fox. I whole heatedly recommend 3 Millstones Inn and will not go anywhere else when back in the area!!!

Totally fantastic - I WILL be back! The Golden Lion exceeded my expectations - my room was gorgeous and the staff was terrific! Also, the location was 100% central, AND the pub/restaurant was like a meeting hub for the town - so there was plenty of action but not a lot of noise, and NO NOISE in my room - it was totally quiet!

Clitheroe is a lovely, interesting town.

Clitheroe is a lovely, interesting town. Lovely shops and eateries. The Castle is a must visit, free to look around, the museum has a charge but worth a visit. Clitheroe has events all year round so worth checking what’s on. There’s also a Boar Park which is fabulous for a day out , take your own picnic or eat there. With other places of interest near by it’s definitely a great place to visit.

Nice vibe in Settle itself with cafés, pubs and restaurants, as well as local shops. If you like walking and being in the outdoors, there are plenty of options here. Can get there by train from Leeds, Carlisle. Obviously if you have a car, you’ll have more flexibility about places to visit nearby.

Visiting a nearby event, we were very late arriving (10pm) but the manager went out of his way to enable us to still be able to check in. Even let us in 30 minutes early for breakfast too as we were leaving at 8.15am. Everything you could want for breakfast and the rooms were very well presented and very clean. Only wish we were staying longer.

We should have booked somewhere else after working out the windows didn’t lock but gave the hosts the opportunity to resolve. They didn’t bother and I doubt it’s resolved now. New windows are really needed to resolve the issues. The accommodation was lovely and clean and beds were comfortable decor lovely and kitchen fully fitted out. It’s just a shame the windows didn’t lock and it faces into a car park. View was non existent. Wouldn’t stay again, was so tired when leaving because couldn’t sleep properly.

I cannot comment on Waddington itself as we arrived around 6 pm and left around 10 the next morning so there was no time to explore. We were attending our son´s wedding the next day and had flown in from Spain so were feeling very tired on arrival. A few glasses of wine later we were soon back in the land of the living!

If they had bothered to hire a chef and breakfast staff and paid attention to their bar stock it would have been just what we were looking for. We felt deceived, they are cutting costs but if they are struggling to survive and cannot offer basic services expected from a country inn then they should not be trading. I expect at the very least a refund of the £25 paid for a breakfast we did not receive.

stayed at the pub for my wifes birthday, chose a superior room with a garden view. The rooms are very spacious and the bathrooms are of an exceptionally high standard in terms of tiling and fitments and toiletries. The pub has 9 rooms and was completely refurbished about 8 years ago I think. The food was again of the highest standard,with a good menu and choice. Extremely friendly staff, nothing too much trouble and all a credit to the pub.

Rural area. Lovely views. Settle is a short drive away which is handy for pubs, shopping and fuel top up. Well placed for Lancaster and similar. Nice pub, restaurant and cream tea on door step. Post office in the village but we didn't use it. Great for all sort of walks and peace and quiet.
