Just a few things but good staff.

The staff were great but a few things not available eg red wine and draft beer. Room a little tired and very warm even with the window wide open and no heating on. Enjoyed the stay as the forest is only a few steps from the door. Would stay again and hope the niggles are straightened out.

Comfortable hotel with lovely pool

Lovely quiet hotel with friendly staff and a lovely pool, which our 4 year old really enjoyed. So nice for us at a family not being restricted to certain times to use the pool too. Great location for visiting lots of fabuloys places in the area & less than a 15 min drive to Peppa Pig World.

Lady on reception was excellent, friendly and efficient. Room was quite a good size and bed comfortable. We had water and tea making facilities but there wasn't enough toiletries for two people. Also bedside tables needed a deep clean. Our door also didnt close we had to pull it which then made a loud bang. We also heard several other doors banging loudly. Good location to walk into town and visit New Forest.

Hi, We stayed at this hotel for one night prior to going on a cruise from Southampton and being midlanders we wanted to do the lion share of the journey the day before departure so we choose this reasonably priced hotel. We had a family room which catered for 2 adults and 2 kids (11 & 9). Room ws fine. Clean and ample size. The kids beds are bunks tucked nearly in the corner. We didnt wat in the hotel or book breakfast as we were checked out early the next morning but we did eat tea at the 2 minute walk Waterloo Inn (decent pub grub). Upon our return from food we went in the pool. This is fine but there was nowhere for parents/guardians to sit and watch the kids should they not want to get wet. Seating innthe pool.area could be better. As could a repair job on the sauna and shower. All in all though this was a pleasant night stay with friendly staff and convenient to Southampton docks (20 mins)..

The hotel itself it’s nice and comfortable. Close enough to new forest show and lyndhurst is a great town.however I think we were placed in the smallest room and the hottest room. I know it was a hot few days but the fans provided were old and not good enough and the room was just too hot. We didn’t sleep properly for 3 nights which is a shame. The bed was a very small Double and one of us had to sleep On the floor because it was just too small for 2 adults . I normally stay here a lot throughout the year but not sure if I will again.
