We had a really lovely stay here, the hosts are so friendly and welcoming. The room was so nice and a great breakfast. We loved the location as we could easily walk to the shops, cafes and restaurants.

A place about 5 minutes walk from the center of Lyndhurst. Right in the middle of great walking and cycling places. The folks who run this are friendly, helpful and accommodating.
Breakfast served till about 9. Everything on the menu is local.
Clean rooms. The house has history. Would've loved to know about it.

We loved our stay here in March 2020. The hosts were very friendly and warm, the rooms were nice and clean, wi-fi was fast, showers had hot water, and breakfast was as expected. We would stay again next time we are in the New Forest.

Lovely room, well spaced and a nice garden. Went at one of the warmest times of the year and the room really lacked ventilation, two of the three nights I could not sleep. Oh and bike 'shed' capacity is limited
