The room was excellent, clean spacious and the beds were very comfortable. Had dinner in the main restaurant. The food and service - 5 stars. Overall our family had a wonderful time here.

"Very quaint building …. Woke up to cows right next to you …. Owner was very helpful / charming /could not fault her ….. Bed was small …… Quilt was a winter one …. Or maybe it’s just so hot ….could have done with a sheet also …breakfast excellent"

Orchard Barn Spa, exclusively for you, New Forest

10/10 Excellent

"We were both very much looking forward to this trip due to our jobs. It is definitely the place to go to if you want to find absolute peace and quiet. The barn is very clean and well presented, it has everything you need and the bonus is of course the hot tub! The stay was worth every penny and we woke up on the day of leaving not wanting to leave. Chris and his partner are lovely people and are very friendly. He has great knowledge of the area and is able to make great recommendations. We would love to come back!"

New Forest Lodges

Beautiful Tranquil Barn in 14 acres of perfect peace within New Forest district

10/10 Excellent

"Anne & Mike were lovely helpful hosts from the time of booking and kindly left us a welcome food pack. Their 3 gorgeous dogs made our stay just that little bit more special. Our party of 5 had a great stay in the lovely, well equipped and comfortable barn which was accessible for an ambulatory wheelchair user.Fishing on the beautiful shaded riverbank was the place to be for a couple of us during the heatwave, whilst the rest enjoyed the gentle breeze through the lounge. We would definitely like to return…Thank you x"

Little Barn - UKC2539

8/10 Good

"Lovely location, Lovely place. Nice walking for the dogs. Handy on site shop."

BARN COTTAGE. Delightful luxury rustic barn conversion nr New Forest/south coast

10/10 Excellent

"Barn Cottage is small but excellently equipped with quality facilities. We appreciated the Tassimo coffee machine and Dualit toaster. There is also a log burner, although we didn’t need it during our visit as the heating and hot water were more than plentiful. It is ideally suited to anyone who has mobility issues. Being all on one level, with two double bedrooms, both with ensuite wet rooms. We especially liked the personal touches of daffodils and chocolate eggs left for an Easter break. It is ideally located for visiting the New Forest and we would definitely book again if travelling down that way."
