"The Golden Lion in Allendale is a fabulous hotel and pub. Situated in the centre of the village, there is ample free parking in the Market Place. We had booked a superior double room and on arrival we were advised that there was a problem...with the room, viz a broken window pane that had been boarded up. We were offered an alternative room or the one we had booked, but at a reduced rate. We elected to stay in the original room as it was very spacious and, as the boarded up window didn’t bother us at all, I advised that there was no need to discount the price although it’s very nice that the offer was made. As I’ve said, the room (number 2) was spacious, very nicely decorated and furnished, and very comfortable. The en-suite bathroom was also very smart and came with lovely big, fluffy towels. Breakfast was served in an attractive dining room and was freshly cooked to order and very good indeed. The pub is one of two in the village and is, in my opinion, the best. This view seems to be shared by the locals as it was very busy on both evenings we were there. The owner and all staff members were welcoming and friendly and the service throughout was exemplary. In short super hotel and pub in a lovely wee village. Looking forward to returning for another visit."
