Room was very spacious and well equipped- all the staff we met were very friendly and helpful - we needed to get somewhere to meet friends for a celebration and they went above and beyond trying to help us navigate around the very flooded area .

The rooms, the superior rooms were not great, our friends in room 24, had to plug the kettle in on the floor, as there were no plugs by the dressing table to plug it in. In room tea & coffee supplies were sparse. No usb ports.
The staff were good though, especially at dinner. The food was great.
Breakfast is a self service buffet, this was a little on the cool side.
The staff at this hotel are fantastic, there is a good mix of ages working here and all are top notch when it comes to customer service. The food is fabulous, good quality, fresh and soooo tasty (compliments to the chef who cooked our anniversary meal, really made our night along with the service thank you 💕)
We had a fantastic 2 day stay attending our friends wedding. It was an ideal location and nothing was too much trouble for the lovely friendly staff. I would highly recommend
Perfect location to enjoy the New Forest Great for families, couples - and dogs! Friendly and efficient service - the staff are lovely. Would definitely stay here again
the hotel is tired the standard room we were given was terrible . the bar is nice and the breakfast was great again the pool needs a refit and i think its very poor that u have to pay to use the spa when your staying ..staff were friendly but wouldnt return
A lovely hotel in the beautiful New Forest. Dog friendly and seemed very popular. Decorated nicely and some modern fabric choices on furnishings. Relaxed completely in the pool and sauna and felt invigorated by the hot tub. Would stay again if I could afford it, but it is a little pricey for my budget.
Lovely friendly hotel in lovely surroundings. Great restuarant on site too. Room quite small but views brilliant. Shower not that powerful but functional. Would have been nice to have body lotion in the bathroom too.
