Do not come to this restaurant if you are hungry..i have never had such small portion sizes for so much money, thats unless you have the Tbone steak.. but then that will cost you £54.00 and thats with out any sides which are another £3.75 each ...my starter was a dish of macaroni with sweetbreads, this consisted of 9 pieces...

We visited as a treat for my Mum's birthday. lovely meal, nice ambience in the restaurant. I have stayed here before, hence the return trip. As a hotel guest (we stayed the first week it was open) we were made to feel special. I would say that the service was less personal as dinner guests. The food was divine, (as... More

We ate for a special occasion at the restaurant at Lime Wood. The service and ambience is perfect. The menu is selective and not vast but seasonal foods are chosen carefully. Lovely presentation and very tasty. The Monkfish for two people is delicious. Not so keen on the cost of each side dish of vegetables as they are very small... More

Came here for mid-week, two night stay and would definitely come back. The hotel building is lovely and the decor has been well thought out. The grounds are beautiful - lots of ponds, sculptures, little woodland tracks and pretty gardens. The spa is very close to the main building and is extremely well maintained. Overall, we found the staff to... More

This place has a younger, more relaxed atmoshpere than most hotels of this type. Once can actually relax. Feels like staying with friends! The staff are charming but not obsequious. Didn't have time to try the spa and all facilities but for chilling out in the (chilly) English countryside, this was great.

Faced with another birthday, this time my husbands, I was looking for somewhere special to take him for supper. having eaten at the Pig in the New Forest- which is part of the same group, we knew standards would be high at the Lime Wood. I have to say the staff where charming, how nice to be greeted with smiles... More

We stayed for the first time in November 2012 in a Generous room and then, this time, in a Spacious room. We absolutely love this hotel. The rooms are fabulous (but see below for a couple of minor glitches) and the spa is the best we have visited in the UK. Even in poor weather, the place is beautiful and... More

We found the staff wonderful, the hotel very nice but the quality of the food extremely disappointing.. We had the standard lunch menu, the starters had been changed and we had a guinea fowl pate which was extremely dry. Then we had roast beef which looked nice but had no flavour whatsoever topped by a mountain of "yorkshire pudding". It... More
