林中焦點酒店(Spot in the Woods)

Couldn’t complain ! It’s our second time there

It's a definite 5 out of 5 for the team that was working during our stay. Tyrone could not have been more welcoming and helpful. Nick, Casey, Toby and the wonderful breakfast ladies made the right start to the day. The food was delicious and the service friendly and efficient. The hotel was just outside Lyndhurst in a woodland setting. The hotel was clean, tidy with nice decor. Our room was spacious, comfortable and clean with lovely toiletries. However, the room did seem a bit tired in places and could do with a little TLC. Our comments were passed on to the reception team on checking out.

I had a voucher for Spot in the Woods which I was really excited to use. However I was disappointed to discover that by the time we booked the restaurant, bar and B&B service had ended. Without these it was a very weird, unwelcoming experience. No a**osphere. The places feels uninviting and unloved. It labels itself as a self catering hut. But in reality there is not enough space or utensils (oven, microwave etc) for self catering.

The Spot in the Woods is an amazing setting within walking distance of amazing trails within the New Forest. As terms of accommdation, the property was very clean and the staff were really attentive. Every aspect of our trip was taken care of by Dan and his team, and nothing was too much trouble. I would strongly recommend a stay at this hotel. In addition to regular rooms, it also holds 5 Shepherds huts - these are located on the property but are standalone making for a niche experience.

We had a lovely 1 night stay in The Spot in the Woods, it is a beautifully quiet area and the staff were incredibly helpful. The bed was huge and very comfy and the shower was amazing. We had our own balcony which was a welcome surprise. The restaurant wasn't open for dinner but the bar was so we sat outside and had a drink before wondering down the road to the local pub The Gamekeeper. We had a wonderful breakfast in the morning and went for a lovely walk in the local woods. We would definitely stay here again!

I would just like to thank the staff at the hotel for making a surprise stay for my wife’s milestone birth a memorable one. After a busy week of organising a surprise party this was a very welcome break. I would like to thank the following people: Ellie for putting up with my initial grumpiness having discovered the evening dinner service was cancelled and organising a booking at a local pub for the birthday meal; the lady on reception for be so welcoming (sorry did not get your name); Dan for getting our firepit started (I definitely need one of those gadgets!) and Sandy for bringing us a lovely breakfast and plenty of coffee. We loved the shepherds hut and the staff definitely made our stay a comfortable one.

We had stayed here in the Hotel's previous guise - Terravina - and I am afraid left disappointed that previous experiences were not matched. On arrival we felt there were none of the friendliness and cosiness of the past. It did not help that the heating in the corridor and our room was off - meaning a literally cold welcome. Room and bathroom seemed a little tired. Breakfast was very good though.

The rooms are lovely, cosy and clean, most with a terrace which is a great touch. The staff are all so helpful and friendly as well. We visited back in 2019 and were happy to come back and will definitely come again - a lot better value for money than most new forest hotels

We hired the private function room for an afternoon tea with 20 colleagues. The afternoon tea was good quality and there was so fuch food. The staff were really helpful. Really reasonable price. Good Gluten Free options were provided too
