Arrival - good. Simone looked after us well and we managed to check in early. Afternoon Tea - good. Honestly, for me I would prefer to be asked whether I wished to dial up the savoury or the sweet as this offering was too sweet for me especially the chocolate ganache Bedroom - ok. Bed linen had black mark on sheet. Bed frame had wear marks, shower glass had water marks, shower fixture was loose. We were in Room 3 - the noise from upstairs gave the impression there was a baby elephant stamping above us - not conducive to a relaxed environment. Breakfast- good. Fair selection on offer - surprised to hear Capuccino was a supplement, but ok. Bar - good. Enjoyed the music and the bar staff were helpful and sat in the tent and used heaters Pool - good. Changing facilities good too. Parking - good. No issue finding a space on site. Checkout - I do not recall going to a hotel that had a 10:30 am checkout time especially on a Sunday morning.

Nice stay

The staff were amazing, every single person we interacted with. The hotel was lovely, although the room was a little dated. We also found 2 x head hairs on the bedsheet. Pillows quite hard / lumpy. The spa was really nice and the staff there were great. The pools, both inside and out were NOT heated despite the website / booking saying they would be and the staff at check in advised us. Overall a lovely stay but a few little things would have meant a 5 star review rather than the 4 star I am giving it.

Mid week break

A lovely hotel in the beautiful New Forest. Dog friendly and seemed very popular. Decorated nicely and some modern fabric choices on furnishings. Relaxed completely in the pool and sauna and felt invigorated by the hot tub. Would stay again if I could afford it, but it is a little pricey for my budget.
