Pros:

Lovely Country Hotel & Spa in Lymington. Perfect base for exploring surrounding New Forest, Hampshire & Dorset Locations. .

Beautiful welcome and dogsitting policy for our four legged friend, Pablo (Estevez).

Cons:

The Night Manager really should have had a colleague with her / two people on Reception overnight. Late check in a bit shambolic. Also, safety cocerns for lone working overnight with very wet weather and local flooding.

Lovely place to stay for a trip into that part of the new forest
Pros:

Good quiet location, staff friendly, offered to carry bags to our room, gave us details of taxi firm, chatty

Cons:

A couple if times we were waiting at the var for a while before anyone came to serve us despite using the call bell as requested.
Also shower head dripped all night and we had to put towels in the bath to stop the noise! Room 151.
