OK, place could do with a little tlc.

Rooms are at the top of an awful looking manky staircase, which didn't bode well, but the room was clean. It was small and very hot due to no a/c and warm weather. The common area/hal desperately needs refreshing. Breakfast was OK. Overall, it feels a bit like it needs some tlc.

Lovely pub and room, overall it was fantastic, the staff really make it what it is!!. If i had to moan, queen size bed was 2 tiny singles pushed together. And my side sloped down to the floor and it would be nice if the juice at breakfast was chilled. Howeverbreakfast and food in general was very good. Would definitely return

If you're looking for 5 star sterile environment this is not for you. When booking on line your'e never sure what you will walk into.As soon as we set foot through the door we knew we had made the right decision. New Forest Inn steeps in atmosphere, 18th century beautiful country pub in the heart of the New Forest, even the ponies were there outside to welcome us. The staff were amazing as was the food. Bedroom a little quirky...we loved it, extremely clean throughout. We will certainly be back, hopefully autumn to this most wonderful establishment!

Lovely place, however we stayed there in the heatwave & the fan provided sadly didn’t help. The room was very hot think having the kitchen extra fan sadly outside the window didn’t help, just like sleeping in a sauna there was hardly any breeze coming through the window .I appreciate the staff could do nothing about the very hot weather. It was cool in the bar & beautiful garden

Gorgeous New Forest Inn

This is a pub with a difference, a traditional old New Forest Inn with interesting decor. Also charming New Forest ponies visit daily and stand and watch while you have a beer. All the staff are friendly and happy and provide great service, nothing seemed too much trouble. Our room was very comfortable and well equipped with tea and coffee making facilities and toiletries. Situated in the heart of the forest just outside Lyndhurst (20 min walk away) its extremely peaceful. The food on offer is high end pub grub with a few specials thrown in and you certainly won't go hungry. The breakfast selection is very good and the New Forest Breakfast will last you all day, no matter how far you're going to walk. We stayed 2 nights and would have stayed longer if we could. Highly recommended however bear in mind this is an old pub with rooms not a swanky 5 star hotel, but the people who work there warrant that rating.

Lovely place to explore the new forest

This is a lovely place and the pub I see great. The food is very good and the garden lovely. The staff are very friendly and helpful. My only issue is that our room was over the kitchen and so was incredibly hot and stuffy. Had a fan but this didn't really do much. Overall a lovely stay just wish the room was cooler.

Like the fact that you can walk a few yards from the property and you're in the forest. Good location for walking the dog. The whole of the New Forest inn is dog friendly and staff are very welcoming towards them.Very helpful staff !

All as good as it could be in a very old building.

We enjoyed the stay but a few things stopped a great stay. Not sure the hotel could have done much about them however. Room was almost unbearably hot even with a fan going all night. Bathroom had nowhere to put anything but again the space was utilised to the max. Staff were lovely and the food was plentiful. Would stay in the cooler months again.
