Very interesting museum. Loved the dolls houses

October 2019

We think this is the best place to visit in the whole Dorset/New Forest area! We have been here three times over the years and it gets better every time. It strikes the perfect balance of being traditional, non-commercial and unique but also hugely entertaining and absolutely loads to do for young and old!

June 2019

We visited the museum (with our dog) and enjoyed snacks at the cafe. Definitely worth visiting with an extensive collection of historic equipment and the food was very good too!

Brilliant afternoon spent at Breamore House and countryside museum. The house tour was a highlight. ? Excellent value for money and well worth a visit.

August 2021

Really interesting and excellent and informative guide.

September 2019

Breamore House is wonderful. The guides were fun and knowledgeable. They brought the history of the house and the families how have and do live there to life. The countryside museum is also fabuous.

September 2018

Really beautiful house with lots of history, the guided tour was really interesting and you can get a really close look at the furniture, paintings etc

July 2018

A great day out. Very historic and interesting tour

June 2018

Compasses Inn had friendly staff. Good food served quickly. A tad expensive for children’s menu.

August 2022

Long wait for our meal though pub wasn’t busy and food not very hot . Think whole fish should be changed to fillets .

July 2022

The Compasses has great potential, needs updating. It is currently not making the most of its location in the village had it been more comfortable it would have been my destination of choice during my stay in Damerham

We had a lovely meal at the Compass on Saturday 10th July. The chips were slightly over cooked but otherwise all the food was good quality. There were dogs inside the pub which may be an issue for some.

Would love to have tried this pub as we were within walking distance, but sadly the only Vegan/Vegetarian option was a salad ... not very inspiring for those in our party looking for options.

Did the 30 minute walk across the fields from the Chapel to this pub which is very quaint. Did not eat here, just had drinks but the pub and its garden is very nice.

Great pub. Dog and child friendly, we were made to feel very welcome. Had booked ahead and had a lovely table next to the big log fire. The food was fantastic. Even my fussy 6 year old ate pretty much all of his Mac and Cheese as it was just as he likes it and very yummy. Highly recommend the Steak and Kidney Pudding, delicious!

Lovely beach, we enjoyed our walk and we look forward to visiting again when we are next on holiday in the New Forest.

May 2023

Wonderful sandy, dog friendly beach with spectacular, far fetching views. The addition of Sobo serving fantastic coffee is great.

October 2023

Nice beach with good facilities

April 2023

Beautiful beach, lots of sand for youngsters- definitely been high on our favourites list, for more than 30 years and still is now the 'children' are nearly 30! - well worth the drive from New Forest. The Noisy Lobster is great and now has an 'outdoor upstairs' too. The Beach Cafe, half-way along, is excellent too- used to do very good carrot cake! The connecting beach towards Steamer Point is dog-friendly all year which is a bonus. Walking to the quay end, you can catch the ferry to Hengistbury Head which is beautiful beach too and often quieter (top favourite!) Even this last week (JULY 2021) the 'kids' wanted to crab-fish from Mudeford Quay!!
