Test Valley Vacation Packages

July 2026 - Beautiful building set in lovely grounds. Room was clean and bed comfy though it didn’t have air conditioning which we could have done with in the heatwave. Food in the restaurant was good and buffet breakfast was very good with plenty of choice

Loved the accommodations. Had air conditioning, a live saver during heat wave! Ambience was warm and inviting. Restaurant had excellent Italian food. Would definitely recommend and also stay here again!

Stuck to find somewhere in the New Forest I widened the search to this hotel which clings onto the edge of the forest. It is more of a hotel for events (two birthdays and a wedding during our two night stay), so you do get to feel a little like a gate crasher. Very basic dining options but the food and service were pleasant enough. The hotel itself fitted the English country vibe I had wanted for my overseas friends, and the location was great allowing for easy arrival not far from the motorway, but everything New Foresty no more than 30 minutes away. The hotel cannot be blamed for the unnatural heat, but given our room got the full glare of afternoon sun it was impossible to cool down by bedtime, so some thought to closing curtains and windows for arrival if this is going to be our new normal. I’d far rather enter a dark cool room on arrival than a furnace.
