Proper pub! Very welcoming and excellent service. One of the few pubs in the dale to serve food on a Monday evening. The Golden Lion helped make our stay in St John’s Chapel memorable. The landlady went to great lengths to snap a great picture of us and an old friend we hadn’t seen for 28 years. If you’re in Weardale put this pub on your must do list.

Booked a last minute table and were met with a lovely reception when we arrived early . We tried to book a few places all were booked out which was very strange. so glad we came across this lovely pub . Food was delicious fish and chips all home made and piping hot . Lovely owners who made us feel very welcome . Would definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We've had a fabulous couple of nights here. Couldn't fault any part of our stay. From arrival, we were made to feel welcome. Great "local" country pub atmosphere. Excellent location & tasty breakfasts. Very Dog 🐕 friendly. We will definitely be booking again.

I recently stayed at the "Old Coach House at The Golden Lion" while travelling through the UK after completing the NC500 on my motorcycle, and it was a pleasurable experience. The location is simply spectacular, with a breathtaking ride via England's highest paved road leading to a small, quiet town. The owners can provide a barn to securely store motorcycles and bicycles overnight—a huge plus for bikers in the UK. Just ask them, and they'll gladly assist. The hospitality was beyond exceptional. Despite making a late-night reservation, the owners stayed up to welcome me warmly. The pub was already closed, but they waited, greeted me with a round of ale (which I could even take to my room), and engaged in friendly small talk, sharing insights about the area. Breakfast was simple yet honest, and the pub itself offered a great variety of food alongside excellent ale and beer. The cosy atmosphere and the owners' genuine care significantly contributed to my positive experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to every biker out there. A perfect blend of beautiful location, secure facilities for your bike, and heartwarming...

Well what can I say but FANTASTIC ! My wife & I stayed here for two nights and loved every minute. The owners Tyrone & Jennifer are both great, friendly and very helpful, nothing was too much trouble. The room was clean, with great countryside views as well as flat screen TV, a good powerful shower and the heating was very quick and efficient making it a warm and cosy place to stay, as it was quite cold & wet when we were there. As for the food - Wow ! Both the full English breakfasts and our evening meals were fantastic ! Hot, well presented, very tasty and great quality, we would not go anywhere else. Great company, we were made to feel very welcome - if you are travelling in this area then you need look no further - The Golden Lion is an excellent place to stay at a very...
