The room was modern, new, clean and of a reasonable size, shower /wc room was good with a large shower, overall very comfortable. The staff and owners were all friendly, efficient and helpful at all times. The breakfast whilst appearing to be a little limited, you could have almost whatever you wanted, very flexible. The restaurant was very good (perhaps the choice could be extended slightly) with meals of a high standard and with good service. The location whilst in a village is excellent for visiting surrounding attractions (Portsmouth, Beaulieu, Arundel, etc) Overall we had an excellent 5 night stay and will definitely consider returning
