Park in Southampton

“After reading some of the reviews I was hesitant to continue with my reservation, After deciding to make up my own mind we arrived for our 1 night spa experience. The location is nice with a well presented building and lots of parking. Our experience started well. We had a massage booked in for 10am and arrived in plenty of time. Reception guided us to the spa reception and we were welcomed with smiles and helpful staff. Things got a little shaky when we were laying down for our massage waiting when we were informed our "therapist" has been involved in a car accident and if we wouldn't mind to rearrange our treatment for later in the day, while disappointed due to us having arrived early specifically for that allocated time slot we were given a new time slot of 5 pm ,this allowed us to enjoy the facilities through the whole day while our room became available (3pm check in ) The spa despite reviews to the contrary was well kept, clean and all facilities were open. While it's not a brand new spa (others clearly want new whever they go) it was sufficient for our needs..I would suggest to the team at the hotel to get more loungers around the pool. ( A jacuzzi would be very welcomed by your guests) We were miss informed about lunch time facilities ( we were told only afternoon tea available, but that was just for the Winchester restaurant on site and not the gallery bar, staff could have informed us that the other bar served light lunches as we ended up in the local garden centre for lunch which was very nice btw. (Hotel lost out on our business for lunch) The afternoon check in was efficient and our room was lovely,Clean and stylish. Bathroom nice and clean with an elegant decor. Unfortunately the bed wasn't to my preference but everybody is different. We got our massage at the new time and was exactly what we needed. The "therapist's" did a great job and exceeded our expectations , well done ( not many can actually deliver a firm massage and get the knots out of my back). The food was lovely (evening meal and breakfast), The staff were friendly and attentive. So thank you to Botley park for a pleasant stay and well needed break.”

“My wife and I visited this store to look at dining tables, chairs, and sofas. Honestly, we loved the experience! The staff were so welcoming and friendly, and the store had a much better collection than other places we checked. The prices are fair — not too high and worth it for the quality you get. I’d definitely recommend this furniture shop in Hedge End to anyone setting up their home. We’ll be going back next month to buy more for our house!”

“Went here twice. Once without appointment to look at the prams and we were helped by a super friendly lady (can't remember the name but she had green contact lenses) who showed us all the different types of prams. Then the second time was our actual buy 4 baby appointment where we were helped by Janet who was also super friendly and helped us make our final decision on the pram. Overall very positive experience and we can't wait for the delivery.”

“"Best school" This is the best school in my opinion. My son has learnt good discipline and manners in addition to the key skills expected.”

“I was gifted the full-day experience for my birthday, and what an amazing gift. The couple running it exuded passion and love for the birds, and were immensely knowledgeable. They were both very friendly and from the start made it clear that they would tailor the experience to what the small group wanted, as much as possible. Want to take photos? They'll help you. Want to learn everything about falconry? They'll tell you! Just don't stroke the feathers :) The birds themselves were amazing! The little kestrel and owls were very cute with great personalities, the hawk and peregrine were amazing to 'train' and see fly in real life, and the golden eagle was just something else! I genuinely can't recommend this enough, whether you know nothing about birds or are a falconry fanatic!”

“We visited from an Airbnb in Portsmouth. It took us about an hour to get there, but it was well worth the trip! A great place to escape into nature in the picturesque New Forest. We did both the Tall trees trail and Arboretum trail in about 2 hours and this was with plenty stops for chats on the benches and little diversions walking more into the forest. It’s just be right amount of walk if you’re looking for something light but energetic. There were toilets and a van serving ice cream with a small choice of dairy-free and gluten free options too and plenty of picnic benches dotted around. We ended the trip with a coffee trip into the nearby village of Lyndhurst. Well worth the visit!”

“Simply incredible. I've been to many Japanese restaurants, but this small, cozy place has undoubtedly become my favorite. The food quality is outstanding. Everything is freshly prepared with great care. You can truly feel that each dish is made with love and a deep respect for Japanese tradition. The fish is fresh, the flavours are balanced, and the variety is impressive, especially for such an intimate restaurant. The space is calm, clean, and thoughtfully organised. It’s run by a lovely couple who are incredibly kind and welcoming, which makes the experience even more special. Their hospitality and attention to detail really stand out. My partner and I ordered the summer roll, salmon hoso maki, black tiger roll maki (my partner’s favorite), Philadelphia roll (my favorite), tuna and salmon sashimi. The prices are fair and more than worth it for the quality you receive. It’s the kind of hidden gem you stumble upon and immediately want to share with everyone. More people need to discover and try this place. ❤️”

“Fantastic service went out of there way and very friendly. The food was amazing. Really good adult and childrens menu”

“Great food and very friendly service! I had the chicken rice stone bowl, which was absolutely delicious. It was served hot (and stayed hot in the stone bowl through the whole meal), with fresh vegetables, tender chicken and had just the right amount of sauce. My wife had the beef ramen soup which was equally tasty - I had to sample it several times! Don’t miss out on this hidden gem!”

“A well hidden gem with a really laid back atmosphere and super friendly staff. Food is simple but fresh and delicious. A great place to chat and take your time. Will be back for sure.”

“A beautiful forest park, perfect for walking and enjoying nature, with breathtaking scenery including a lake and benches for resting and sitting. Along the way, there are signposts to help you find your way, and the park also features interesting historical landmarks. It’s advisable to bring your own water, as there are no shops available.”

“What a lovely place. Not recommended for elderly, pregnant, less-abled though. The walk up does have some steps, but there's a lot of slippery chalk to contend with going up or down the hill. Only been once so maybe there's others ways/paths but we went up 1 way and down another and both slippery in Autumn. Great views at the top. Nice little woods for kids to play hide and seek in. Will definitely visit again.”

“This campsite is immaculate,washing and drying facilities, you can buy tokens from the little shop on site and other supplies you may of missed,great showers, delicious food vans come in regularly, no ponies inside but a few minutes walk off site and they are everywhere”

“Amazing!! Went for the illumination Xmas trip. Absolutely amazing. Loved the flashy- oke!! Definitely put us in the christmas spirit.”

“Excellent trail, there are a lot of options and not much elevation, would say good for beginner hikers and children. In a nice day there are some small streams where you can dip your feet, take children and have a picnic, in one word wholesome. Nice horses, cows and donkeys everywhere ❤️”

“This is a large area of managed wetlands with drainage channels throughout. There is a single path, fenced off from the meadows that joins Salisbury centre to Harnham Mill. There are some good but distant views of the cathedral, and a few signs referring to Constable, who may have painted neer here.”

“I popped into their cafe as the rains opened up. Picnic table inside a shed. Great idea. I had a generous gluten free bacon sandwich and tea in the dry. I recommend here.”

“First time at the Paw Paddock and our pup absolutely loved it. Big field, loads of space, proper little paradise for doggos. Only downside - had to pick up a couple of mystery poos left by someone else’s lazy human. Bit grim, but hey, didn’t ruin the fun. Overall nice spot, we’ll definitely be back.”

“Hursley Cafe is definitely the café we’ve visited the most since moving to Southampton. With its great value for money, we find ourselves coming here almost every Sunday. This is a record of our visit two weeks ago, after our eldest daughter and her friend finished rugby practice in Eastleigh. We ordered Egg Royale, Lasagne, a Kids’ Meal, Mocha, and Hot Chocolate. The food quality was excellent, and the portions were generous. This café gets extremely busy on Sunday mornings, so we highly recommend calling ahead to make a reservation to avoid long waiting times.”

“Beautiful location with really the sweetest and most helpful staff! The bell tent was super clean. Also the showers and toilets were really clean every day! The location is superb, in the woods so you only hear the birds :)”

“Well staked shelves. Fresh produce was very fresh. Staff very helpful as they helped shopped as I was running late for my hospital appt. The young guy at check out very polite asked if found everything and if we needed help. Super customer service”

“We booked to visit this campsite the day before arriving. Like a lot of visitors, we had visited peppa pig world which is quite literally around the corner. On arrival, the campsite appeared neat, tidy and very well laid out. We were greeted at the gate and were immediately given information on the facilities and given the WiFi password. There are a few cars, bikes and scooters for the kids as well as a cabinet which contains DVDs and books. We were really impressed with our stay, and have decided that we will be staying here again in the future.”
