We stayed for two nights at this gorgeous cottage,and totally enjoyed our stay. The room was cosy,clean and full of unusual objects,which delighted us. The breakfast was perfect ,and the afternoon tea was truly delicious. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone, who appreciates a 400 year old property.. We are looking forward to our next visit there,as we... more

We read the mixed reviews of this hotel and were almost put off by some of the comments made. I am very glad that we chose to take a chance and book anyway. From the moment that we arrived we were made to feel welcome and our room (The Darjeeling) was fantastic. I can only imagine that those people who... more

Lets start with the good points. 1. Location - The cottage is situated in the heart of Brockenhurst, which is fabulous for pubs and restaurants and is conveniently situated for easy access to all of the Forest. 2. The breakfast - The included breakfast may only be "Continental" but there was plenty to eat. We received a different home made... more

The book we found the Thatched cottage in (admittedly a 2004 copy) made the cottaqe look perfect for a romantic weekend stay in the New Forest.

Considering the rates of the rooms, I was expecting a luxurious en-suite spacious room. I was appalled and totally mortified when we were shown our room. It was like something out of Fourty towers.... more

What can I say other than one year later I am still scratching. This was the filthiest place I have ever stayed in my life, even the dog has had post traumatic counselling. What is even more amazing is that I paid completely over the odds for it. We found the hotel on a 'pet friendly' website, left our twins... more

This cottage should be a lovely place to spend the weekend. The food is lovely but its unbelievably expensive. The afternoon teas are also lovely but while the cooked breakfast is very nice the kippers on offer were dry and over-cooked. However, the main problem with this hotel (and its a big one) is the owner's insistence on providing an... more

We have just returned from a one night stay at the Thatched Cottage. The room was lovely, the bed was the best we have ever slept in, it was so soft and comfortable we didn't want to get out of it! The open fire really made the room a special treat. The food was excellent, if a little on the... more
