Inns in New Forest District

"WILL NOT BE RETURNING! Oh dear, well from what the pictures show and the price we paid it would seem to be regarded as somewhat a higher end hotel compared to your standard? Upon receiving our key we walked up to our room only to find the door unlocked and slightly open. We entered and LOCKED the door. The smell from the bathroom was a foul one. Constantly smelling of waste. And the decor was tired and looked rough. Oh not to mention the leak coming through one of the walls. Regardless of this we were tired and it was getting late. I woke early the next morning for work only to find the door was UNLOCKED during the night. I then reassured my partner and told her to lock the door and leave the key in the lock until I got back from work. She then rang me a few hours later to tell me someone was trying to get in. No knock, just force. She opened the door to find a woman. Who replied oh I thought my colleague was in here. No sorry nothing. DISGUSTING! My parter and daughter are in the room frightened and yet this woman did not care. For the rest of our stay we made sure we constantly locked the door. We went out for some food of course once again locked the door. Only to come back to it unlocked and our things moved. No clean sheets or anything? I went down and told the receptionist who looked at me like I was an idiot. Once again no apology. The staff seem to have no regard for the guests and I’m utterly disgusted. Got a frightened little girl and a concerned partner. Nice one"

"I really loved the suite that we had booked it had a balcony that overlooked the garden . The hotel was ok . A bit tired in places . Menu for evening was ok . Breakfast was a buffet which didn’t really suit me . I asked for an omelette which they did make but I was reminded twice that it wasn’t really on the menu ….Otherwise all was ok "

"Lovely large room at the front of the pub overlooking the road. Stayed on a Friday night and was slightly worried it would be noisy but it wasn't at all. Very peaceful. Didn't eat in the restaurant but the drinks were good value and the breakfast was first rate. Would say far much better than many farmshops we've visisted. Lovely young lady hosting breakfast."

"Great stay"

"Lovely hotel in the new forest. Close proximity to walks. restaurants and cafes. Love breakfast in the morning. Helpful staff who were very accommodating of our two children. Thank you"

"Fantastic breakfast"

"Very charming place surround by beautiful nature "

"The view was lovely and the apartment was spacious, well equipped and comfortable. The bed sheets and pillows unfortunately let the sleep down. They smelt disgusting, like bleach. The bed was full of little bits and wasn’t very clean. Other than bad sleep, it was a nice stay. "

"Very pleasantly surprised by the well presented hotel, designed to be in keeping with it's original features intact, along with more quirky elements in the decor. The lounge was very comfortable and spacious, and felt like we had stepped back in time to the nineteen twenties. The food was excellent, both as the main meal and the included breakfast, which was a broad menu. The room was very clean, the shower excellent, with pleasant little touches around the choice of teas. The bed was very comfortable. The staff were very accommodating and quietly efficient. The surroundings were lovely, with lengthy walks available in both directions along the coast. For the price we had a short but very comfortable stay. Would recommend and we will definitely be back."
