   We stayed in the huts with our 2 dogs, it was very nice and had a feel of luxury throughout. The bed was big and comfy and the facilities were modern and clean. The breakfast we had was delicious and all the staff were very friendly. Would definitely stay again and would recommend.

   My mother and I stayed here for 5 days (end of November). From the moment we arrived the staff were so helpful and friendly. We stayed in one of the shepherds huts/cabins. It was really lovely, effective heater, great shower, comfy bed plus a dog bed and bowl and treats supplied for our labradoodle Dexter. They are very very dog friendly and Dexter was allowed to come with us for breakfast and out for drinks in the evening. The location of Spot in the Woods is fantastic with brilliant walks, pubs, restaurants and shops nearby. The food was delicious and the vegan and vegetarian options are fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble and the entire stay was perfect. It was my mothers birthday on the Tuesday and she got a complimentary mimosa with breakfast. All the little touches throughout the stay made it an all round wonderful getaway.

   Great hotel, every member of staff was excellent. We had an issue when we were there but the staff did everything possible to put things right. Of particular mention Tyrone whose service is exemplary and Ellie who definitely went above and beyond to sort the issue. In fact the only shame is that Richard who we understand is the General Manager did not either meet with us or call us to discuss the issue although we had been told this would happen. We and our dogs will definitely be back for another stay.

   Loved our long weekend at Spot in the Woods. Comfortable cosy room, excellent breakfasts, really cheerful and helpful staff, and the whole hotel was beautifully curated for a relaxing stay. Lots of walking options, very dog friendly too. A lovely place to chill out and recharge our batteries

   Me, my husband and dog Billy have just had a 3 night break in a Shepherds Hut at Spot in the Woods and it was amazing!! It is in a great location for exploring the New Forest and is super dog friendly which we loved. All the staff were so friendly and couldn't do enough for us (especially Ty). The food was excellent, breakfast was incredible and set us up for the day, we can recommend the full English and Bakery on the menu, they even had a dog menu. The Shepherds Hut was perfect and very clean, the dog treats, gin and biscuits were a lovely touch. We really hope we get the chance to stay here again.

   Lovely location and really friendly staff, but the food wasn't as good as I remember it being. Came here since its dog friendly and the terrace is lovely to sit on with this warm weather. We came for breakfast, coffee was alright and there was nothing wrong with the food, but compared to other places over the forest it seemed a bit average. Still worth a visit if you are in the area, especially if you have a dog, but I wouldn't specifically go out of my way to come here.

   A great place to stay and explore this beautiful area. The hotel is lovely and set in a great location, you really do feel as if you are in the middle of the woods. We stayed in a room but the shepherd huts look really nice. We were lucky and had warm weather and made good use of the veranda for our meals. All the staff were very welcoming and eager to please. We didn’t take our dogs but the hotel is genuinely dog friendly. A large area at the side for dogs to have a run. We intend to return with our dogs. All of the guests who had dogs were very responsible and this shouldn’t put off non dog owning visitors. We are already looking forward to a return visit. Thank you for making our recent Wedding Anniversary celebration special.

   We stayed here with friends and three very excitable pugs and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome! The hotel is quirky and comfortable…our room was spotless and the friendly housekeeping staff made sure it stayed that way. One even came to find us at breakfast the first morning to ask whether we’d like another dog bed! We thoroughly enjoyed the breakfast each morning…in fact the food is so good that we dined twice in the evenings too. We were lucky enough to try a few dishes from the new menu and can’t wait to try more. The staff are fabulous, and frequently went out of their way to make sure we were looked after. All in all it was a perfect stay…we have already booked our next one and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone!

   Visited spot in the woods for our 10 year anniversary and couldn't have picked a better place. The breakfast and dinner was delicious with plenty of choice and even a great brunch menu. Also had coffee with a slice of caramel and apple pie one afternoon which was amazing. The room we had was very spacious and a very relaxing place to be, especially the large shower and bath that gave the room a luxurious feel. We also had a separate area with seating, tea and coffee facilities, dressing table, wardrobe and safe. The restaurant/bar is very welcoming with a quirky touch, but most importantly the staff create a very comfortable atmosphere with exceptional service. There is also outside seating either on the decking area or benches in the garden. We were constantly asking about recommendations for places to eat for our anniversary and the manager gave us every detail of the local restaurants. Very nice gentleman indeed. I highly recommend a stay here and will certainly be returning ourselves when we want somewhere to stay near the new forest.

   We had a lovely weekend away at this beautiful hotel with our extended family. Fiona could not do enough for us and offered us a different room when the cabin was a little tight for us with two small children. The children loved it so much so we stayed in the cabin and it was so cute, with clever storage and a real unique rustic experience. I imagine the best experience in one of the cabins would be in the summer as there was a semi private seating area to enjoy a tipple on a summers evening. There was a large shower and everything is done to a high finish. There was also some lovely gifts left for us on arrival. My Grandad's room in the hotel was lovely with a big bathroom including a stand alone bath which he loved. On our second night my Grandad had trouble with the TV and a member of staff went up to his room immediately to sort it out. The food in the restaurant was of high quality and very yummy. We will definitely be returning when we next come to the New Forest, would recommend for couples and families. Thank you Spot in the Woods!
