Great place expensive brekkie
Great place but breakfast is massively overpriced. One option of paying £29.99. Weather you want a limited continental or just scrambled eggs in toast it’s one price. Quite archaic.

An excellent overnight stay with a very good sized room. The food was too a very high standard and a good choice from the menu.
Only issue I had was the bathroom was very hot despite the towel rail was not on and could not see how to turn the heating off , this is a minor issue but would recommend this hotel to anyone staying nearby

Nice stay
Nice stay: friendly staff, room nice but nothing too special and quite hot so wouldn’t want to stay in summer, pretty location but not walking distance to any cafes/villages etc.
Quite baffled that the breakfast was £50 (£25pp) which was more than the beef Sunday roast….?!

Excellent hotel for a short New Forest break
The hotel is lovely with horses and donkeys wandering around across the street. The staff were all lovely and very welcoming - we stayed with our cocker spaniel and could eat and drink at some nice tables near the log fire. The hotel provided dog treats and water bowls. The food was very good with a chestnut and wild mushroom gnocchi being a favourite. Room and beds very comfortable and decent Wi-Fi throughout.

Staff were brilliant. Also spa facilities and gym are nice. Turndown service did not refresh the room amenities like coffee, drinking water etc.

The property was nice and we enjoyed the beautiful garden. The location was great too in the New Forest. Staff was very friendly and allowed us to store our bikes in a closed garage.
The room we booked did not meet the requirements for a proper hotel room. It was too tiny and neither a chair nor a table would fit in. The bathroom was okay and we had warm water all the time. If you opened the window, there was a constant noise from a ventilation system which was installed right behind the window. We felt, the value for the money (average 100 pounds) we paid was not very good.

Unfortunately, a massive disappointment. Room was supposed to be a deluxe for four, could barely fit one bed in. Food & breakfast overpriced, room too warm, music playing from upstairs till late at night. One nice lady on reception; one rude with a poor attitude. TV in room didn’t work. This is a 2-star hotel really. I would expect a partial refund for what we experienced.

Constructive Feedback
The Reception of guests on arrival and during one’s stay is vital for establishing a warm welcome and stay. Both Shirley and Kayleigh are very professional and did that throughout our stay. Please pass our thanks onto both of them.
If you would like some constructive feedback please encourage and guide the younger young lady who was on reception when we first arrived early for some advice and assurance prior to our 3.00 pm arrival that afternoon to our booked room
Who greeted us with a disinterested “ Hello” and who took some time for me to extract a smile. I’m sure she has great potential.
Thomas was and is also Excellent and carried our cases to the room, managed the bar with aplomb and made us so welcome for meals and finding us the right table.
I hope the above is useful feedback and we look forward to returning again.
