Great hotel in the New Forest

Great boutique hotel ,staff are young but brilliant, excellent customer service,food top quality both breakfast and dinner. My only complaint is parking, very frustrating, when full you are left to sort your own parking, not good. New Forest parking discs should be made available.

If The Ivy did hotels this is what they would be like. Beautiful decor, quirky layout and lovely hidden garden. Room felt luxurious and the bed was super comfy. We ate in the garden which was very relaxed, such a pretty setting. The breakfast was superb, eggy brioche with bacon was delicious and the continental selection was very high end. Latte and Americano coffees included which we've noticed that some hotels have started charging for - not good when you are paying a premium for your stay. Excellent experience all round.

Bed was very comfortable. Very accommodating for our dog, dog bed, blanket and sausage treats provided. Bathroom shower floor needed cleaning or replaced. Bathroom wasn’t large enough for the toilet, it was squashed between the large sink and the bathroom door. Making it very uncomfortable.

Beautiful building, room, facilities and very accomodating staff, our only tiny point to raise is that there were a number of hairs on the floor in our bathroom when we arrived which was a tiny bit off putting

The hotel was lovely and very central in Lymington. The bedroom was decorated really nicely & pleased there was air conditioning in the room. The only comment, the bathroom was a bit small. The toilet was very close to the door.

Lovely hotel, fantastic staff, my only slight negative is our room was at the top of the hotel with very low ceilings and I spent most of the time in the room having to duck or be otherwise hunched over. I'd definitely stay again though, but ideally not in that room.

Wonderful property! Beautiful bedroom - very clean - premium bedding. Delightful garden - huge with amazing wisteria which all enhanced our cream tea. Staff very helpful all over. Parking and unloading not the easiest. Breakfast was disappointing - practically cleared up buffet 20 minutes before end. Overall would absolutely recommend!

Hotel was recommended by Elderflower restaurant and we would definitely agree to recommend this to anyone staying in Lymington, it was all decorated for xmas and was beautiful and festive. Room was lovely and the bed was like a cloud, we will definitely be returning in summer months.
