Flies in the ointment (sorry, vinegar) aside the Lion's a great place as a pub but as a B&B it's absolute crap. The one and only time I stayed there (about four years ago) our view of the outside world was a brick wall and an extracter unit that rattled all night long (or was it the bed?). The 'shower room' was a horrible dark little place with paint peeling off the walls and ceiling that reminded us of something out of Lord of the Flies. Breakfast was uninspired to say the least. The Lion's a great place to drink but stay somewhere else - try Mrs Dixon's place at the top of the hill just outside Avebury Trusloe (Tel: 06723 588). Gotta be one of the best B&B breakfasts in the country (with real coffee!) and if you can get the front bedroom you'll also get a view of Silbury.
