Red Lion Inn (Finavon) food hygiene rating

Hotel/bed & breakfast/guest house · Angus

Red Lion Inn (Finavon) was told improvement was required at its most recent inspection. Under Scotland's scheme that means the inspector found the hotel fell short of the legal standard and expects it to put things right.

The rating: Improvement required

The rating dates from 6 November 2025, 8 months ago. Councils typically re-inspect higher-risk businesses every six months to two years, with well-run, low-risk places visited least often, so this is a normal gap.
