Comfortable and clean hotel
We stayed at the New Forest Lodge several times this year and felt very much at home and welcomed . Clean, warm and comfortable rooms. Staff and manageress are very friendly and always helpful. We liked the very clean and functional dining area with a microwave plus coffee & tea facilities . Free and secure parking. I would recommend this hotel.
Good, affordable stat
☺ Location - we were at the back so road noise not an issue and gorgeous views over the fields. Everything was super clean. Good size bath towels and nice bed linen. The rooms are big with everything you need especially considering the excellent price.
☹ The mattress was saggy and made awful spring noises when you got up or moved. The bathroom only has one light over the sink so when you pull the shower curtain ( good quality and thick) it's really dark in the shower/bath and hard to see what you're doing. The rooms are a little dated.
Good value for money, but bring earplugs for the night
☺ Good value accommodation with decent amenities and a convenient indian restaurant meters away
☹ Quite noisy being on an A road, noisy neighbours. Shower would need to be refreshed/fixed

Pleasant and comfortable.
☺ Room very comfortable, nice having a little eating area with microwave, toaster & kettle and crockery. Hotel clean. Staff very helpful.
☹ The bathroom - lighting poor - shower area was quite dark. Water only just hot enough. Bath and shower could be better.
Convenient location for my road trip (it's on a main road and easy access). Overall, it was somewhere to stopover for the purpose of resting and sleeping. It is made clear that breakfast (and dinner) is not offered, so I prepared by shopping en route. Resting: the bathroom was clean but had a damp smell about it. My main reason for staying was to get some sleep and this was the worst part; I was kept awake by movement on the floor above due to the creaking floor. The extractor fans for the rooms either side of me were audible as was anyone walking past the room.
This place did not give good value for money and you would expect more for the price charged.
The front door is on a combination lock and there is no lighting to help you see the numbers you need to press in order to enter the property. It was raining and dark so next to impossible to see what you needed to do in order to gain access.
On leaving you are expected to leave the room key in a basket which means anyone could help themselves to whatever they wanted from the room you've just stayed in.
Very Good
☺ Basic but absolutely fine for what we needed. Great location.
☹ The room we had did have a strange smell to it. Probably just damp or old carpet. Also our fridge had a pungent smell. It didn't worry us too much.
The lodge itself was clean, cozy and inviting.
