Enjoyed our stay with family, friends and dogs. The hotel were really helpful in accomodating us all for dinner. Food at breakfast and dinner was good with a good choice available and catering for all diets. Rooms were spacious and comfortable and modern considering the age of the property. Nearby Romsey is well worth a visit as of course is the New Forest.
