On arrival it was dark and it looked closed, no lights on, no signs of life. We followed the signage to parking at rear and got parked. As we got out of the car someone came out and welcomed us, and saw us to our room. The room wasn't in the main building, it was in what looked like an... more

This is probably one of the worst hotels I have ever stayed in!! On the website the hotel looks idyllic but please don't be fooled. What could be a gorgeous interior has been destroyed by a cheap attempt at modernisation - horrendous romanesque painted walls!! The bedrooms are located to the rear of the building and whilst they are at... more

Meet and greet was good, shown to room all OK. Room was large but the main light fitting was suspended by its own cable , only one lamp worked and only one bedside light worked and the smoke alarm was sealed by a plastic bag. Bar area plesant but restaurant decor left a lot to be desired and despite only... more

Looks fantastic from the outside and is set in a lovely location. We drove around the back to park the car and noticed a run down building similar to a motel/flats type of accommodation and figured that this must be for staff. Imagine our horror when we found out that this was our accommodation! There were only two rooms available... more

My husband and I stayed at The Vines for one night. A couple run hotel. Friendly staff and we had a lovely 3 course evening meal and breakfast the following morning. The restaurant service was a little 'scatty' and understaffed, for example some people were served bread before their meal, and some weren't...including us. I asked for a wine menu,... more

I have not stayed at the Vines Hotel but I have eaten in the restaurant. I like the themed decor as it really is a personal taste but very apt with the restaurant name etc. Situated in a beautiful village it was nice to be in a restaurant that is different from all the rest. The food was superb -... more

Wishing to celebrate a 'significant' birthday in style and return hospitality to good friends, I chose the Vines for its ideal location and facilities. A dinner party for 20 was held in the conservatory area of the busy restaurant with guests selecting their meals from the imaginative menu of freshly cooked local produce. A delightful touch was a beautifully decorated... more

The Vines - My partner and I stayed at the Vines. We were quite excited about having a good rate of £90 for bed,breakfast and an evening meal. The owners are lovely very hospitable, but I have to say I think the interior needs to have a good revamp ( especially the toilets !!). We had our evening meal, again... more

Went away for 2 nights a bit wary of the previous bad reviews but these proved unfounded. We had DBB for £90 per room per night and it was easily the best deal in the Cotswolds and New Forest which we also investigated. . Both breakfast and dinner were perfect with a good variety to choose from. Everything was cooked... more
