What susannec1610 likes about The Lion Inn:
We’ve been staying in timberscombe for a few days and been into the lion inn every evening. We have felt so welcome and regulars have chatted to us each time. Malcolm is such a welcoming host. Our dogs have probably made as many friends as we have and on occasion there have been almost as many dogs as people. Such a great village pub a community hub at its best View all feedback. What Don B doesn't like about The Lion Inn:
I drank at the lion inn for a couple of years and was constantly harassed by the local idiot. One evening the local idiot threatened and attacked me as l tried to leave,, avoid this pub at all costs ! View all feedback.
