 Thirteen miles south of Gloucester is a great bend in the River Severn, forming a peninsula on the eastern bank. On the Western End of this peninsula lies the small village of Arlingham. The centre of the village is built around The Cross and situated here is the RED LION, a large village pub, partly dating from the 16th century, which offers Accommodation, a Friendly Atmosphere, a Warm Welcome and Excellent Food. EVERY SUNDAY THE RED LION OFFERS A GREAT BRITISH SUNDAY LUNCH Sunday Roast and Free Pudding - £7.95 Childrens Roast and Ice Cream - £5.25 Why not try one of our three real ales? - One guest ale changes each week.

Table Tennis and Pétanque (Boule) in The Red Lion are growing in popularity. Tuesday nights are 'free for all nights'. Anyone can turn up and have a try at either sport. This has proved popular and great fun. We take it in turns, have a knock about ? singles or doubles, a natter and, should the sun actually show itself, lob a few boule. It's all very informal. If you fancy it, just pop along to see what's going on, and feel free to join in. With the River Severn nearby the Red Lion is situated just off the Severn Way, the longest riverside path in Britain. Linking Wales and England, the 337km (210 miles) way marked Severn Way traces the route of the Severn, from its source at Plynlimon to the sea at Bristol, and is extremely popular with locals and visitors alike. The Arlingham Horseshoe Project is a series of 4 Walks which commence and finish at the Red Lion in Arlingham. Each walk takes around 2.5 hours and covers the wonderful countryside of Arlingham.

The Red Lion is also the starting point for the Arlingham and Overton walk, a 5.5 mile walk which is fairly flat, with magnificent views of the River Severn.
