TESTIMONIALS
"This is to say a big thank you for what you did for Sally and I today for our party, everything was great the food especially was really good. You and your staff looked after us and our guests so well no fuss but attentive when we needed things believe me that does not happen very often. You worked so hard and neither of us will ever forget you.
Been a long day so I am just getting things ready for tomorrow then I think bed is calling.
Thank you once again."
60th Birthday Party, February 2012
"Just wanted to say a massive massive massive thank you to all of your team and staff.
We had a brilliant time and the timings were perfect, in fact to be honest we anticipated that things would run over as I had given you guys quite a stringent timeline, however you made the near impossible possible and run incredibly smoothly.
We loved the service, and I have been inundated with people saying how nice it was, so thank you for making it possible. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your team, and thank you once again."

Christmas Party, December 2011
"We would like to thank you so much for making our Martial Arts ceremony awards and dinner/dance event so very special. This was a very important black tie event in our calendar and had to be perfect due to VIP guests attending from all over the World! The whole evening went so well due to Sara’s attention to detail.
Nothing is too much trouble and the personal touches make such a difference. The food was delicious and served to perfection with outstanding service. Nothing at the Golden Lion is left to chance; if you miss something Sara will pick up on it. We have hosted and been to events all over the World and the standards at this venue are the one to beat!
All the staff were professional, helpful and kind but without being imposing. We would certainly use the Golden Lion for our future events."
Black Tie Event, October 2011
"Our party at the Golden Lion was absolutely excellent in every respect. All our guests were delighted with the preparations, the setting of the room, the quality of the food and the friendly service given by Sara and all her staff. Sara’s help in selecting the menu and the wines was invaluable. We want to thank you all most sincerely for helping to make our day such a happy and memorable celebration."
Golden Wedding Anniversary Celebration, July 2011
"Thank you Sara for masterminding our dinner on Saturday. It all went without a hitch, and was enjoyed enormously by all those present. Complements to Chef and the other Staff who attended us so carefully.
Please would you also pass our thanks to Claudia, Jim, and of course Dawn, for making our event so memorable."
Dinner, May 2011
"The rooms were great, our cosy family meal on the Saturday evening delicious and the whole day on Sunday ran like clockwork thanks to the well organised, pleasant and friendly staff who couldn't’t have been more helpful.
Our very special day started with a very good “full English” breakfast and ended at about 3.30 the next morning when the last of my family eventually crawled (and I mean that literally in one case) to bed!
All the staff were very helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. Our anniversary lunch on Sunday was delicious and, without exception, all our guests were impressed with both the quality and the quantity of the food. The lady “running” the lunch was so helpful and organised us beautifully!
I would just like to single out Dawn and say a special thank you to her – she made us all feel very much at home and looked after our every need with a permanent smile – nothing phased her and my family were delighted with her “service with a smile” at breakfast on Monday morning – especially as we were all feeling a little fragile!
Thank you so much for making our 40th Anniversary such a memorable one."
40th Anniversary, April 2011
"Thank you so much for everything yourself and Staff did yesterday. Dave had a lovely day - and it remained a surprise to the last! We couldn't have asked for more. Please pass our gratitude onto all the Staff. Food and service were wonderful!"
Surprise Party, April 2011
"The Golden Lion proved to be a great venue to celebrate together with family and friends following the Christening of our Son on 20th February 2011.
The whole day was successful and it takes a good team to make this happen, The Golden Lion certainly have a brilliant team. Our initial visit was welcoming & relaxed and we were given plenty of time to discuss our arrangements.
On the actual day we arrived to find everything in place, tables looking lovely, with friendly and helpful staff who were attentive throughout the afternoon.
The hot buffet was of excellent quality and extremely generous portions, we had 95 guests which included children. We would not hesitate to recommend the Golden Lion, our thanks to all the experienced staff who worked so hard to ensure the smooth running of the afternoon.
Hats Off to the Golden Lion, great memories."
Christening, February 2011
"Just a note to say a big thanks to you and your team for last Saturday; The food was excellent, the service exemplary and the event an unqualified triumph. I think following our AGM our new chairman might be inclined to repeat the experience next year."

"Dear Claudia , Sara and all the team at The Golden Lion,
It's a week since our wonderful Golden Reunion and I'm still getting cards and email 'thank yous' from the ladies. They are all full of praise for the venue and so I want to say a big 'THANK YOU' on their behalf.
I couldn't have organised it without your support."
Reunion, October 2010
"Martin and I wanted to thank you and the the staff at The Golden Lion for the excellent service you gave us for our party yesterday.
We felt confident from the beginning that you would look after us and you did. The food was of excellent quality and quantity and served swiftly and efficiently. We also understand that you had been liaising with our daughter where your co operation was greatly appreciated.
The facilities were excellent and gave a lovely atmosphere to make our day very special.
We would recommend you to anyone."
Lunch Party, August 2010
"We both felt we had to write today to thank you and your team at the Golden Lion for organising the wonderful celebration we had for the Christening Party yesterday. The room and the tables looked pristine and every single person commented on the fabulous food which was presented so beautifully.
The starters of smoked salmon and Melon with Grand Marnier were a perfect beginning to the meal, then the succulent carvery buffet of Roast Beef and Roast Turkey with all the accompaniments and vegetables was just so tasty and hot (which is unusual these days) And what can I say about the desserts, the Chocolate truffle (which was absolutely delicious) and the sticky toffee pavlova which was also extremely popular.The service was second to none and the young man on the bar was just so pleasant.
I was also just so impressed with the way you too got stuck in to ensure everything went like clockwork. Everything was just perfect, so thank you so much to you all the team at the Golden Lion."
Christening Party, June 2010
