totally awesome stay!

accessible areas bright restaurant seating area

i really loved the accessible areas for my dog! the bright restaurant had a lovely feel. the outdoor area had so many places to sit and relax. the room included great coffee, tea, and hot chocolate options (amazing!).

the pub is located on a busy, fast road. it was a bit noisy even on the side where my room was. i wish it were a bit quieter.

Location

8/10

the location provides a handy starting point for immediate bike rides right from the doorstep of the accommodation. additionally, it is near key attractions, perfect for exploring the surrounding area. the heart of new forest is a short distance away.

Facilities

9/10

the pub offers a good beer garden, alongside a great bar. you can expect refurbished rooms that feature modern bathrooms, a great touch. it has seven rooms (i believe) and a lovely outside seating area.
