Fantastic service, food and drink. Room was fabulous and well resourced. My only very slight issue was that breakfast did not start until 8am, in saying that the continental breakfast the night before for us was excellent.

Lovely hotel, great service and accomodation

The Bear at Burton is a lovely hotel, beautiful bedroom with quirky touches. Very clean and comfortable. Service was brilliant, all staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast was delicious
Juliet, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great Stay Overall

We stayed in the Goldilocks room the room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed... The bed was clean, but we could feel a couple of springs when lying down. Breakfast first morning was a 6/10 the bread looked and tasted cheap. The bacon was streaky and fatty. Second morning the bread was better quality but bacon still streaky and fatty 7/10. There is lots to do in the local area including the New Forest and a short drive to sea.

Lovely rural setting, very clean & tidy. Nice idea to offer complimentary G&T. Good food. The GM was very welcoming checking me in and showing me my room. The GM was also on duty for breakfast service and accommodated my need to leave early. Can recommend,

Always pleasant and good food.
Kristian, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good availability for parking, but car park could do with being resurfaced. Easy to check in and room was nice - very comfortable bed, a few quirks in the bathroom with a very low mirror over the sink that has you bent over to use and you can’t open the window to let out the steam. We had breakfast and dinner whilst here. Both meals were excellent- good choice and very tasty. Good selection of drinks as well. Was a good base for a visit to the area and would recommend

Perfect getaway!

Lovely stay at the Bear of Burton. We treated our sons and their partners to an evening meal and overnight stay. The whole evening was great. The atmosphere was perfect. The staff were all extremely helpful, and our rooms were delightful. I can’t fault the meal, the service, the room or the lovely breakfast. I would recommend a stay here.
