Comfortable, clean with great customer service
Pros:

Excellent location. The room was very comfortable and very clean and we were able to choose a twin-bedded room.

Cons:

The accommodation is part of a pub that serves food. Great ambience with a separate eating area from the main bar. There's a good choice of food and they're happy to cater for special dietary requirements such as GF and Df. The slight downside for me was the lack of additional vegetables as my GF fish and chips only came with peas.

Beautiful stay in peaceful surroundings on the edge of the New Forest
Pros:

Absolutely loved our stay at the Kings Head.
The large, well presented guest rooms are In a separate building with Queen Beds and are tastefully decorated
The Pub itself is warm and welcoming, very clean and everything to a very high standard. Our hosts Patrick and Nicky are so friendly and welcoming and they run a team of very happy staff. The food is delicious and way above anything we’ve ever had in a Public House before.
Everything is exceptional, we will definitely return next time we are in the area

Cons:

Nothing whatsoever

Great little place to stay staff/ management we’re all very helpful and polite! Food served in the pub was excellent!
