A Victorian house with five shepherds' huts in the back, this comfortable boutique bed-and-breakfast on the edge of the New Forest has individually designed rustic chic rooms. Some feature roll-top baths while most have either a patio or a deck. The hotel's social hub is the veranda overlooking the lawn from which you may see the New Forest's resident wild ponies or deer. A restaurant serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner with seasonal menus and housemade pizzas. Dogs are welcome in the three ground-floor rooms.
