We stayed 3 days in the room with the private terrace and hot tub which could be enjoyed even in the middle of winter. The pub itself was very welcoming with very good lunch and evening meals and an excellent breakfast. Dogs were also made welcome with an outside area exclusively for them, but it is a shame not all dog owners apprecited this and were not responsible for cleaning up after them. If in the summertime should the pub or the very nice large public gardens get crowded all residents could take advantage of the residents garden. We hope to return with family members later in the year as it was so good. Thank you for a most enjoyable stay.

Great dog friendly room and pub to visit. We only stayed one night - it was a nice location from the new forest. Dinner was delicious, my partner said it was perhaps the best pie he’s ever had, and the included breakfast was well worth it. Only suggested improvement could be a new carpet for the room, but this is always tricky for a dog friendly room.

Really nice clean cosy room. Nice touches incl folded towels on bed with chocolates. Hot tub terrace was private and nicely laid out. Hot tub itself was really nice, warm, and clean, with cool lights! Menu and specials were varied and plentiful. Food was really nice. Staff friendly. Would definitely stay again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Lovely secluded place, own private hot tub which was lovely and clean, the room was spacious and clean. The only thing which very slightly let the place down is some parts are starting to show their age, for example the shower head holder was cracked, these were very very minor bits though. I can’t comment on the breakfast as I didn’t have any, the only other thing I would’ve liked was WiFi. Overall a very nice place to stay, I would definitely recommend staying here and I would visit again.

Great Accommodation and Pub

The room staying in and the associated pub/restaurant were all very good. Clean, well presented room with all the things you would expect, including an electric fan to use when the nights were hot! The pub had a great selection of drinks, including two real ales on draft. Due to other plans we did not eat an evening meal but were delighted with the quality and selection of the breakfasts. The staff were very attentive and did all they could to make sure our stay was great. Would highly recommend and would have no hesitation in booking again when i'm next in the area.
