Welcome to the White Lion St Leonards, an 18th century pub with more than 300 years of history... And an unexpected Spanish twist.

​

Perfectly situated on the boarder of Buckinghamshire & Hertfordshire, the White Lion is reportedly the highest pub

on the Ridgeway, and the Chiltern Hills best kept secret.

​

This Grade II listed pub was rescued from years of neglect and structural decay in 2018, by local resident Mandy Grimwood.

​

After a loving & painstaking refurbishment, the White Lion reopened with a fresh lease of life in 2021, bringing together its traditional pub character with a relaxed tapas dining experience.

The Chilterns' Finest
Pub Garden

Step beyond the historic pub walls and into our beautiful garden. Often called the best pub garden in the Chilterns, it’s the perfect place to relax with a glass of sangria while enjoying sweeping views across the countryside.
