My room was excellent. Very clean and fresh.
The staff are so friendly, helpful, professional and nothing is too much trouble for them.
I was staying for work but if I was to go back to Peppa Pig World, then this is the place to stay as it is right on the doorstep and definitely a great place to stay.

Hotel building is attractive and inviting. The bar area is large and comfortable. The inter a hotel spaces are a little tired, and my room was clean and functional, but the bed was very hard.

Great location to explore the New Forrest and the Dorset Coast.
Easy acess to the M27 and M3 back to London.

Everything was great. Right from parking in the spacious car park to the welcome within. Room was spotless & comfortable. My dog was with me & made welcome too. He was even provided with pack of goodies and dog toys. Above and beyond. The evening meals were also delicious, with lovely presentation. Staff were all so kind and friendly. Great spot for access to the New Forest. Will definitely stay again.
