August 2017
We had a super time. There are so many lovely things to do in the vicinity (and we were lucky with the weather). A minus point: the specification details do mention the steep staircase - but as this begins immediately outside the bedroom doors, it could be dangerous for small children. A stairgate is supplied, but the stairs could be a real problem for someone with small children - or elderly people with mobility problems. On the other hand, the enclosed front and back gardens are a real plus. And the location of the cottage is superb - ten minutes' walk from the village centre and less to the heath. And a 15 minute walk to the station from where trains go every half hour to Lymington.

The cottage was lovely in a perfect location. we thoroughly enjoyed our holiday
June 2017
We had a great stay in well equipped cottage. Although décor somewhat dated, this suited us well especially with young children. We prefer to avoid gleaming white places! It was clean, comfy and homely. Kitchen well equipped. Shame the fires not working for Autumnn/winter stays. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Our third time in the New Forest and second in this lovely cottage. We had a great time but the dog had the biggest pleasure. Lots of walks, rides, drinking and eating with only one day of rain. We will be back!

Nice restaurant, very nicely decorated, good ambiance and service. We went for a dinner with our kids (3). The food kids menu, was perfect, my wife and daughter order the trout and duck both very good dishes. I ordered the rib eye, the menu says it has 35 days of maturing. The quality was bad, I would even doubt it was steak it almost looked like processed meet. My recommendation stick to the other dishes on the menu and avoid the steak selection. The rest of the experience was very positive.
May 2017
we ate twice at The Huntsman. First time in garden as we had our dog. food was lovely but service very slow. second time we ate inside with all the family. Meal was superb and service excellent and waiter was very attentive
August 2017
It was our first visit to this venue since the name change. The menu appeared a little more upmarket, unfortunately the service wasn't. They took our credit card when taking our order, but when it came to paying our bill we were told they were busy and we had to find the waiter who took it. In all it took something like 30 minutes trying to pay our bill, not the best way to finish an evening with 3 small children wanting their beds.
August 2017
Very good standard of food and pleasant, helpful staff. Thoroughly recommend!
December 2017

Great food and really good service.
February 2018
We ate on one night and went for drinks on another night Was surprisingly busy for a Tuesday evening, but we were still seated at a pleasant, albeit non official dining table We were immediately welcomed and drinks orders taken, in a friendly but efficient manner We were left to choose our food, the children’s menus selected by our two girls (aged 10) were very good and ample, they came with a squash drink and ice cream for pudding I chose the sea bream and mash which was excellent, my partner chos the chicken which was also very good Service throughout was friendly and efficient We returned two days later , just for drinks, I don’t get the feeling that drinkers are their target customers, as the are was much colder and less welcoming than the dining area, I had a real ale which was very pleasant, my partner had a cocktail which was good, the two girls had mock tails, which were nowhere near the standard of our previous visit, no orange in one and didn’t taste as good, girls were a little disappointed This could be down to barman being under training, which to be fair he did explain he was new Overall an excellent venue, we shall be returning
February 2018
This establishment came as a surprise. I took a friend there for lunch and we were much impressed by the interior and enjoyed our meal very much.
April 2018

Very enjoyable ride on the red route. Lovely views of the New Forest. We stopped at a couple of locations and had a meal in Fordingbridge. Ride on top gets a bit breezy taking a coat or jumper is a good idea.

A beautiful shingle beach with pretty painted beach huts, plenty of parking, and excellent coastal walks along Hurst spit to Hurst Castle with clear views of the Isle of Wight and needles. The superb Raft Rocks Restaurant is worth a visit with its Art deco style and roof terrace.

Fantastic sea location with goods pubs, shops etc

Great for a dog walk along the spit to Hurst Castle. Needles Eye cafe is a welcome break, quite good food but very busy and a bit basic.
December 2017
Barton on Sea
(8 miles)
A stony beach with sandy areas as the tide goes out, and a great spot to do some fossil hunting. The cliffs are subject to considerable coastal erosion and at times parts of the beach can be cordoned off. The Beachcomber Café on the cliff top is one of the most popular cafés in the region. Plenty of parking in car parks along the cliff top as well as on-road parking.
Highcliffe Beach
(8 miles)
A picturesque, tree-lined beach of shingle, and sand at low tide. Good facilities on the cliff top including an excellent tea room, award winning public toilets, baby change and a children’s play area in the Castle gardens. Plenty of parking, but there is no disabled access and quite a few steps to get down to the beach. Lifeguard cover from July to Sept. No dogs allowed.

This is one of the most scenic of New Forest beaches. Lined with some of the most picturesque and expensive beach huts in the country! There’s no parking next to the beach, as it’s a traffic-free zone, but there’s pay and display parking at Hengistbury Head from where you can catch a little train to the sandbank, and Mudeford Quay which runs a small ferry (5 mins) over to the sandbank. Can also be reached on foot and by bicycle.

Beautiful place, our favourite beach in south of England. It feels like an island, when you go over on the ferry and at times (off-season!) on sunny days it can feel like a little piece of Heaven, it's so peaceful and beautiful- bit of a sense of New England. There's a super little 'restaurant', the Beach Hut, which does great breakfasts, meals all day and some evenings. Also takeaway eg pizzas, you can eat on the beach. Very simple surroundings, with a sheltered veranda that can be uncovered in fine weather, and amazing views. Quite pricey and often very busy (and you are best to ring and check opening times and book since often weather and ferry-dependant) but the quality of the food and those stunning views make it more than worthwhile!
