Passford House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely quaint hotel in the New Forest but close by to Lymington. Old school charm and a little bit dated which gave it a lot of character. We went in November and it was lovely and quiet with just enough guests to make it interesting. Real open fires and plenty of comfy chairs to sink into while having a night cap. Staff are really lovely and have a genuine interest in guests. What’s not to like !!!!!!"

Luccombe Manor Country House Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed for 9 nights and had a lovely stay at Lucombe Manor. Breakfast was excellent every morning, and the hotel has plenty of character. We were lucky with the weather, and the sunshine over the building gave it a real Mediterranean feel! Our first night was disturbed by guests in the adjoining room coming and going, talking and laughing. Being an older building, you can also hear people walking past rooms at night. The manager kindly moved us the following day, which we appreciated. We weren't informed before arrival about ongoing daytime building works. We'd planned to relax in our room as well as explore, so advance notice would have been appreciated. It was frustrating but didn't ruin our break. The manager was lovely, and both reception staff were welcoming and helpful. When we mentioned leaving early, staff offered packed breakfasts, and the manager made arrangements for the coffee machine so we could take hot drinks. Really thoughtful gestures! The only negative was one older lady taking breakfast orders. Her manner was abrupt, pedantic and at times rude. She repeated my wife's breakfast adjustments sarcastically. We also asked about Yorkshire Tea on our first morning and were told they didn't have any, only to be told on our last morning that they did! We were relieved when other staff took the orders, but didn't let this spoil our stay. Overall, a genuinely enjoyable stay. Excellent breakfasts, a lovely manager and reception team, and a beautiful atmosphere."

The Q Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is well maintain and the public areas are a pleasant place to spend time. Decor/furnishing is fun and good quality. The rooms are a good size and the bed was very comfortable. The pool area is not huge, but is a pleasant place to spend some time. Parking is limited. Sadly, I had an issue with dinner and breakfast. The website had stated that their was food available in the evening during peak season, but that was not the case. The website seems to have been updated to reflect this. Breakfast is served from 8am to 10am, which I found a little limited as I was travelling for work. Sadly, the doors to the restaurant were still closed at 8.05am, so I was forced to make alternative arrangements. Small things to fix, but overall good."
