We loved our stay at the Three Lions. From start to finish the service, food, peace & quiet, menu choices, cleanliness, comfort and environment were perfect. The hot tub was perfect too and we had the best weather of the year which just topped it off!
Surrounding area was wonderful really lovely surroundings staff were always very friendly and the rooms very comfy plus we had one with a hot tub so was brilliant to relax , food was amazing definitely recommend the menu
The breakfast menu was cooked on demand several choices. The hot tub was a lovely way to relax after our days out. Well maintained to an excellent standard. Room was clean the bed was comfortable plenty of tea and coffee etc in the room. Staff were very friendly polite and professional. The food in the restaurant was good.
We recently stayed at The Three Lions in Fordingbridge and had a really lovely experience. From the moment we arrived, everything felt welcoming and relaxed, making it a perfect getaway for the two of us.
One of the highlights of our stay was having our own private hot tub. It was such a great touch and made the whole trip feel extra special—ideal for unwinding and enjoying some quiet time together.
In the morning, we were treated to a delicious breakfast.
Overall, we had a fantastic stay and would happily return. It’s a charming spot with thoughtful touches that made our visit memorable.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Lovely and welcoming place with very friendly and helpful staff. Fantastic food, though baked beans could have been bit hotter as only luke warm. Room was big, lovely and bright without door space and hot tub. Only downside was slight lack of cleaning - thick dust in wardrobe & on wall mirror plus kettle needed descaling which they did when asked to do it. Would still go back despite few issues which we did raise and hopefully will address them.
We just had one night stay wishing to relax and decompress. It was perfect. Quiet, the room was lovely and warm (easy to adjust temperature to our own preference), our own hot tub to relax in, fabulous breakfast. Shower lovely and powerful, plenty of towels. Such a lovely stay. Thank you
Fabulous staff great food lovely and total bonus quiz night we will back and thanks for making us so welcome. Many thanks

Hot tub perfect
Breakfast delicious
Staff very polite
Lovely room but could do with the plug hole in the bathroom sink replacing. Very rusty, doesn’t look too pleasant. A seat cover on the outside seat would make it more comfortable
Second stay at the Three Lions. Lovely Inn - friendly and attentive staff. Dog friendly. Good menu options. There was no hot water in the wash basin - which marred an otherwise pleasant stay.
