Pros:

Nice dinner.

Cons:

The room I stayed in had no window in the bedroom, only the sitting area had a window on the wall where I could see only the sky and a metal sheet which was covering outside stairs.
The hotel had a very old times specific smell. Pour lights in the room. If you want to read a book it's too dark.

Lovely staff, hotel was very clean and cared for. Great location for a visit to the New Forest
Pros:

Staff friendly , welcoming and very efficient. Room well appointed. Lovely bath and shower and all very clean. We had to leave early so did not have breakfast. I hadn't realised the hotel had its own restaurant but would definitely would eat there next time as the menu was good and the food smelled delicious.

Cons:

Noise for the road was audible and I did not find the pillows comfortable but other then that it was a great stay
