    Fantastic hotel in a quiet location. The staff were brilliant and we ate in the restaurant both evenings. The food is very good and everyone friendly. The hotel is close to the New Forest and it is a lovely area.

    Nothing to dislike, but if I was going to be picky, I’d say the skirting boards need dusting a little more often. Everything else incredibly clean.

    South Lawn is a lovely Country hotel, in a perfect location. The staff are all so very friendly & happy to go that little bit further to make your stay the best it can be. It’s very clean & welcoming from the instant you walk in with a lovely lounge area for guests. It’s super dog friendly, but also very good if you’re in a wheelchair, as it’s mostly open plan & the room we had was a good size with moveable furniture, which is ideal. No wet room, but a big enough bathroom for a walker. There is a great enclosed paddock out the back, which is very large & it was great to be able to take our dog out there & sit down with a cup of tea while he runs around & plays with other dogs. The restaurant had a simple menu, but all the food was delicious. The bar area is comfortable with a nice vibe. Perfect location with it being quite central to most places you’d want to visit in the New Forest.

    The menu is limited but has enough choices. Items are slightly pricier, but they tasted great and the quality of service was excellent!

    We could venture out into key attractions as this hotel is centrally located. On an average we sent 25 min. to each of the places of interest and therefore could visit more places than we thought. It's a dog friendly hotel which was great for my pooch. He also received a goodie bag with treats, feeding bowl and a ball which got him super excited! The food was great and the staff courteous with great attention to detail. I have pinned this hotel for any future visits and highly recommend anyone visiting New Forest to stay here.

    No pillow protectors, bed was well too firm, both suffering with bad back now. Breakfast wasn't included so on the last morning we decided to pay for breakfast, bad idea, all was undercooked and not hot,we couldn't finish it,even the coffee was only warm,waste of money. The shower mat wasn't very clean, mould underneath it, the iron had a burn mark on the iron plate, the kettle hadn't been emptied, full of bits. The rooms view was only a view of the car park and a flat roof, water pressure was a joke, expected more for the money I paid, we will not return!

    Liked the location, ideal spot, spacious room.sfaff were friendly and helpful.
