Gorgeous hotel on the edge of the New Forest. The main reception rooms are set in a beautiful,…read morehistoric building - although most of the guest bedrooms seemed to be much more modern. Rooms were clean and very comfortable, if rather 'chintzy'. There's a gym etc and spa - with swimming pool, sauna, steam room and whirlpool. Breakfast is served in a room overlooking the beautifully manicured grounds and consisted of a cold continental buffet and then waiter served hot food (choice of full English, kippers, porridge etc). The hotel is very near the ferry terminal for Isle of Wight ferries and a short drive to Lymington itself. There's a nice pub though on the way to Lymington (called the Waggon and Horses?).

Brilliant family celebration We chose The Manor for my 80th…read moreBirthday Celebration, as we had stayed there before and always found it welcoming and comfortable and good value. My plan was to have a weekend with my partner, my children , grand children and sisters and their husbands (Total 31 people in all) with a lunch on the Saturday with 10 more relations who could make the journey and back in a day. As it happened the numbers were ideal as we were able to use all the bedrooms and have the hotel to ourselves for the weekend, with a few of the people staying a few extra days before and after. The atmosphere was very relaxed and every one had a fantastic time. It was a great opportunity for my grandchildren (teenage or a bit older) to get to know each other and have fun together - some live abroad and others at some distance from each other. The lunch on the Saturday went off very well with everyone very much at ease. The food was very good with a varied menu that I had agreed in advance with Tim the owner and the Dining Room suited our number very well. The next day we celebrated the 60th birthday of my son in law who had driven over with his family from Austria and we had another celebratory lunch, this time there were 17 of us and again we had a lovely meal. The hotel rooms were very comfortable and there was enough flexibility to have a few extra beds for some children. Tim and his team were very friendly and helpful and made everyone very welcome. A special mention to Helena and Angie, and Matt the chef. Highlight for me were the lunches and also the breakfasts where everyone was able to mingle very happily in a totally relaxed atmosphere. For me it was the highlight of my year and I have to thank Tim and his Team for making it such a happy and memorable time

This hotel offers so much with it being in such a great location for outdoor pursuits, however, they have their own lovely grounds if you fancy a bit of a walk. Look out for the summer when I am sure lunch and dinner will be served on the terrace.

Had some pork scratchings while waiting for my friend, they were tasty with ample apple aauce. Shared with my friend a pork roll and toastie. Both were above and beyond the stanrd.

It's like walking into Grandmas house- very comfy and cozy, displayed glassware, and wonderful smells!!! We sat at a window seat so we could people watch, and ordered the goat cheese/croutons as an appetizer, tomato soup and slaw for my lunch and hubs had the 'streaky bacon' which was a wonderfully tender ham steak with apples and roasted veggies. It was all very tasty, I had a glass of wine and hubs had a local beer. 46 pounds total. We love their farm to table meals and we'd definitely be back. Service was friendly and efficient.

This place must be absolutely hopping in the summer! The pig is a restaurant and a hotel, on a beautiful piece of land on the water. I have included several pictures of the view. This is a true farm to table restaurant. We enjoyed a long leisurely lunch that included the 'piggy and fishies' tray, homemade warm bread, cauliflower soup and fish and pork chop mains. Absolutely fantastic meal with wine pairings. We then retired to the lounge for coffee and a bit of a rest before the journey home. A+! The ambiance is 'elegant countryside' and service was top notch. I absolutely must return here with my family in short order as they would love it. PS- may have picked up a bit of a Brit accent while here!!

The hotel suggested we take a cab but we managed to pull our 24 inch luggage from the hotel. We cut through the Holiday Inn parking lot. I wouldn't recommend you walking unless you're very mobile. It took us under 15 minutes. We enjoyed the hotel. Very upbeat. We noticed a photo booth on the mezzanine and table tennis. We had a choice of 500 points or food credit $10 per person. I took the food credit as we were going to eat before leaving for the terminal the next morning. Spent about another $12 USD out of pocket. Standard breakfast food options. We also had hotel bar food for dinner the day we checked in after the two fish and chip places suggested by the hotel didn't work out. Ordered: * hubby had chicken wings * I had Mac n cheese balls * BIL had chicken curry * sis had egg rolls We each were given a free cocktail voucher. It was like a fruit punch. Also got local beer. There's a shopping center across the street. It was a Sunday so stores closed early.

The bar on the ground floor is pretty cool and I enjoyed all the decor. We were given a complementary welcome drink, which was greatly appreciated. The room was comfortable and the bathroom was nice. Unfortunately, I only had about 90 minutes of sleep due to going to bed late and needing to get up early to catch a bus back to Heathrow. The bed and pillows were lovely and there was nice lighting, even a motion sensitive light under the bed so you didn't trip over things in the dark. I wouldn't hesitate to book this hotel again. It was nicer than I anticipated and felt "cool" and "trendy." Drink were a bit pricy but there are countless options within a short walk.

The inn is in the centre of Lymington and is ideally situated for travel into the new forest. The food is decent and priced accordingly, the wine list is okay as is the service. The rooms are all named after people from lymington who went on to bigger and better things. There are four poster beds, a room that has a jacuzzi bath, however the decor is a little tired. Be warned that there is a market every Saturday morning, early start. Do not park your car on the High St. Friday night, it will get towed! Overall it is a good place to stay with decent food, a great breakfast and lots of character. Oh, I nearly forgot to mention, it is also one of the most haunted buildings in the UK. Sweet dreams.
