Visited with friends for lunch this week. Good selection on menu, but we all knew exactly what we were going to order. Best Chicken Kiev EVER! Compliments to the chef. Very satisfied customers, thank you. Look forward to visiting again soon.

Best Chicken Kiev EVER

Room was excellent and well decorated with plenty of room the heating was easy to use and with plenty of teas and coffee the food was superb and reasonably priced and the service was excellent. 
The outside areas were clean and well maintained with a large heated area under cover 

Base for exploration 

Warmly greeted and shown to my accommodation in a building alongside the pub. Spotlessly clean and well equipped. Nice meal in the pub, slept well in a comfy bed and a great breakfast and checked out and carried on with my journey. Couldn’t fault the place and couldn’t fault the staff and will stay again.

Lovely place

Room:  Modern - newly decorated? - room in the stable block adjacent to the pub.  Room comprised a downstairs sitting room and bathroom (full size bath and separate large shower) and an upstairs bedroom.  All spottlessly clean.  Good evening meal and breakfast provided.  Parking close might be a bit of a challenge in the early evening but there is plenty of street (country lane) parking in the vicinity.

Great modern room at traditional pub

Stayed for one night - great service throughout from the staff with check-in and fitting us in for dinner. There were two rooms - a living room and a bedroom which were finished to a very high standard. The full breakfast was excellent - would definitely return

Traditional setting but modern room

After too many months shielding, we returned to our favourite hostelry. Welcomed back as "long lost friends" and thoroughly enjoyed lunch inside. As usual the food was excellent with  a great choice from the now extensive menu.  Service, quality, presentation and value all to a very high standard. Thanks to all in the team for a great lunchtime. Stay safe.

A welcome return to a very welcoming hostelry.

My first trip out after lockdown other than a trip to the village shop.  The White Lion have put customer and staff safety as a priority.  Food and drinks are ordered and paid for via their website so no need whatsoever to go inside.  Garden has plenty of tables and parasols. There is even a one way system in the garden.  Table with hand sanitiser when you arrive.  Food is served in cardboard boxes with bamboo cutlery and plastic glasses.  Food was delicious and plentiful.  The White Lion is to be congratulated.

Fabulous after lockdown lunch

Great staff, great room very clean, great food and beautiful area. Value for money excellent. Already booked for next month. Would recommend for both business or pleasure. Wifi took a little while to connect with but a minor point.

Excellent

OK, it is a long detour from the South Downs Way (5 miles) but very much worth it, and, to be fair, the landlord offered to run us back to Exton the next morning to pick up the route.  This was very kind but we declined as we wanted to walk.  
The White Lion is a very short walk from the Meon Valley disused railway walk and, I believe, on the Wayfarers way.  
The food was excellent, the beer very well kept and our rooms clean and well appointed: USB charging sockets as well as plugs, tea and coffee facilities, a good sized bathroom with hot shower, free wifi and a comfortable bed.  It's a very quiet village so we had a good nights sleep.  
I'd almost certainly plan another walk just so I could stay at the White Lion. 

Very Nice Pub and Rooms

Disappointed with our previously chosen pre-cruise hotels in Southampton, we selected a village pub with good reviews. We were well pleased with The White Lion.

The licensee emailed us in advance to warn us that Soberton Church Fete would be held on our arrival date in the field adjacent to the pub so parking might be difficult. On his advice we parked on Cutts Arch adjacent to the pub without any difficulty. Although the pub was understandably very busy we were welcomed and shown to our rooms. The rooms are in a converted stables and coach house block across the yard. Ours had a king size bed on the first floor with bath and sitting rooms below. They were tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean. The pub has Cask Marque accreditation, so beers and indeed all drinks were in excellent form and well presented. Dinner in the restaurant was of equal quality and portions were generous. Next time we shall skip the starters and go straight to the mains! After a good night’s sleep we enjoyed an excellent (and inclusive) breakfast. We had planned to buy a snack lunch. Instead we were offered and accepted free baguettes which had been prepared for the Fete and cling-filmed and stored in a fridge overnight - a pleasant surprise and easy to accept given the pub’s five star hygiene rating.

We shall certainly stay at The White Lion again.
