Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers clean and practical rooms despite some noise from the road. The service was friendly and prompt throughout my stay. Perfectly situated in the heart of Lyndhurst for exploring the New Forest. The dining experience was well-organized and delicious, with only minor faults. Overall, a cozy stay worth considering.
The hotel is perfectly located in the heart of Lyndhurst, ideal for exploring the village and the beautiful New Forest area. The rooms are spacious and lovely, although lacking a bath which may not suit everyone. The dining experience offers a good variety of choices, especially enjoying the sausages for breakfast. The central location is convenient for touring this part of England, being walking distance to all the local amenities.
The hotel is ideally located in the heart of the village, making it a convenient spot to explore local attractions and enjoy nearby dining options. The rooms, though a tad small and prone to heating up, still provide a decent size with a comfortable bed. The pricing seemed a bit high for the room size, but I will definitely consider returning for the overall experience.
