See more about this pub on WhatPub, CAMRA's national pub guide.

Popular Grade II listed rural pub with a good reputation for food. The Lion is a late seventeenth to early eighteenth century inn, which was known as the White Lion in the mid-nineteenth century, and marked on a map of 1833 as the 'Caerhowell Ale-House'. An inglenook fireplace takes centreplace in the bar area and makes a cosy atmosphere when lit. There is a former well located just off the bar area which was re-excavated and now has a glass cover over it. A additional feature is the faded Watney Red Barrel sign outside the pub. Conversation is king here so be prepared to be dragged into discussions with the friendly locals.
