The Red Lion

The Red Lion is a pub with four rooms in a separate building a short walk from the back door of the pub. Our room was in excellent condition and very clean. It appears that it may recently have been completely remodeled/renovated as the carpet appeared to be brand new; and everything else was in tiptop shape. The Red Lion is very convenient to Cambridge and located in a little shopping/market area surrounded by residential housing. We arrived too late for a meal but enjoyed drinks in the pub - there is also a nice green with picnic tables out back where many were enjoying drinks. Inside, you could tell this is a neighborhood pub from the friendly conversations and banter and also because for the number of people inside and out, there weren't nearly enough cars out back for the number of people on the premises. There is also a nice bakery across the street providing fresh pastries and other options. I would definitely stay here again if I was in this area.

I stayed here while my wife was having surgery close by. I could not fault any part of it - the staff were very welcoming, the food was good, and the room was very well equipped. The location for me was absolutely perfect, and although there was not a breakfast option available, this lended well to the local cafes in the area which i enjoyed fully.

Excellent room in an annex, so very quiet, clean, plenty of wardrobe/drawer space. King size bed and walk in shower. No breakfast available but plenty of nearby cafes in Histon and a Tesco Express opposite tThree he pub. The pub staff were friendly and helpful. Pub does good pub style food. Good bus service/park and ride into Cambridge. An enjoyable stay at a reasonable price
