Welcome

The White Lion is a beautiful, award winning friendly and inviting country pub nestled in the picturesque Village of Ash, just outside of Whitchurch. The pub has been open since the 18th century, but took on a new lease of life in 2017 when it was saved from closure by the locals, and re-opened as a community pub.

We specialise in great homemade food, real ales, and a warm friendly welcome. Our bar is fully stocked with a range of beers, wines and gins, and we have a fantastic range of non alcoholic options alongside tea & coffee. Our bar is also dog friendly!
