About the Business
Epworth offers visitors an indulgent selection of delightfully quaint shops and annual local festivals including 'The Festival of the Plough' and 'The Epworth Show'. Its narrow picturesque streets are rural and diverse and the local community are friendly and accommodating. It also attracts many visitors each year as the birthplace of Charles and John Wesley and its history steeped in Methodism. The Red Lion is the place John Wesley often stayed on his own visits to the town later in his life.
In our 'Tartan Room' hangs a portrait depicting John Wesley which was plucked from the fire in 'The Rectory' in February 1709. Mentioned in the Doomsday book the Red Lion has kept many of its original features and has a charming period interior that complements its character as a traditional English country Inn. If stopping overnight, 'Ghost walks' are arranged throughout the year and sure to give you a taste of the towns paranormal past.
