I've stayed here at least 6 times in the last 15 years & the standard of accommodation is 1st rate as are the cooked breakfasts - just the job to set up a day's walking, cycling or driving around this delightful island! Carol & Paul Hallums run The Lodge & go beyond the call of duty to make guests feel welcome & help advise on local events or attractions. Well worth a visit! There's a bus stop close by - Vectis Buses run a reliable service across the island & a week's pass that includes the open-top tour buses costs £20 each with family tickets also available.

Defoe House offers just one room in a converted garage in the tiny village of Norleywood. However, as well as the sleeping area (ideal for couples but with a sofa bed if you have kids in tow!) there is a small kitchen, bathroom and dining area. The room has recently been converted, the decor is simple and tasteful and it really does have all the facilities you could require. However, it's the homely touches and special attention paid by owner Vanessa that really makes this place stand out. Freshly picked daffodils on the table, home baked cake on arrival (the most amazing lemon cake, I should add), a selection of DVDs to watch, and the offer of help and guidance when you need it. We were loaned maps for walking, plus offered the use of wellies! Vanessa recommended walking routes and places to visit, local pubs to eat and drink, and even made the reservations on our behalf. Breakfast is served in the room. The full English is great, utilising good quality meat and eggs. Cereals are available, and home made jams to slather on toast. However, if you can't manage the whole caboodle, Vanessa will happily accommodate your desires! At £40pppn, Defoe House is good value. We really had an amazing time here, the only things that may disturb the peace and quiet are the cockerels in the morning and the Needles Lighthouse from the nearby Isle of White when the weather is bad! We will definitely be back on our next visit to the New Forrest.

I LOVED this place! First off, this bed and breakfast REALLY is in a village--the kind you see in…read morethe movies! Harts Lane is so narrow, my partner hesitated pulling our car into the lane and then really had second thoughts about pulling into the tiny parking area. I was too busy loving everything I could see to care about that! Then, we walked into the bed and breakfast, where an out-of-breath Linda Smith greeted us warmly and apologized for not being ready. We didn't mind. After all, there were TWO pubs in one TINY village! ;) When we returned from our obligatory pub visit, Linda led us upstairs and to our room. Do you know how sometimes places look clean but don't smell clean? This clean room smelled GREAT! Then, I went into the bathroom. It was completely remodeled and very modern. I was in heaven! A quaint, clean bedroom with a clean modern shower! There was even a place for me to sit down in the bedroom and put on my makeup. I decided to use it for sitting down and reading a daily devotional, but just having this wonderful space was a plus. Did I mention there was a fireplace? The next morning, Linda cooked us "whatever we wanted." My partner happily ordered sausage and eggs, and I ordered bacon and eggs. While we waited, I looked around the family dining room. There were wonderful family pictures--Linda and Ian Smith's wedding pictures, their children, etc. My partner meanwhile marveled at his freshly squeezed orange juice and some of the woodwork in the room. Then, the food came. The bacon was the size of 4 American slices stuck together but a lot thicker. Everything was delicious, but after we ate, we felt like we needed a nap! If you go to this area of England, stay here! The Smiths are very congenial people, their accommodations are clean, their food is outstanding, and the village is picturesque. You'll swear you're in a movie.

The landlady is always very friendly, helpful and efficient, providing a welcoming, peaceful and comfortable environment. Breakfast is always on time and very filling. Parking area is good. Great location for walking and exploring the surrounding area. Very good indeed and great value for money. Highly recommended. I always look forward to returning, which I will do several times later in the year.
