We recently stayed at The Three Lions in Fordingbridge and had a really lovely experience. From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and relaxed, making it a perfect getaway for the two of us. One of the highlights of our stay was having our own private hot tub. It was such a great touch and made the whole trip feel extra special—ideal for unwinding and enjoying some quiet time together. In the morning, we were treated to a delicious breakfast. Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return. It’s a charming spot with thoughtful touches that made our visit memorable.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lovely and welcoming place with very friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic food, though baked beans could have been bit hotter as only luke warm. Room was big, lovely and bright without door space and hot tub. Only downside was slight lack of cleaning - thick dust in wardrobe & on wall mirror plus kettle needed descaling which they did when asked to do it. Would still go back despite few issues which we did raise and hopefully will address them.
