Lovely Place to stay
Posted 25 Jun 2024 on HotelsDetails-
Lovely hotel in the new forest.
Located in Brockenhurst, which is between lyndhurst and lymington. The beach is about 15-20 drive south. The magnificent forest is a stone through away.
Purpose-
Family short break (June)
Local-
There is a petrol station near by and a tesco express around the corner in brokenhurst village. There are limited places to eat here. Lymington is much better.
General Pros-
•Cosy, clean, friendly & helpful staff, •Beautifully furnished & large bedrooms
•Generously portioned breakfast
•Good value
•Nice location
•quiet
•comfortable beds
•Free, personally assigned car parking space
Eco Pros-
•Electric car charger
•Plant-based options for breakfast
•Solar Panels
Cons-
•None really
Eco Cons-
•There is one electric car charger (as far as I can tell) which is a slow charger (240v UK plug, this equates to ~ 2.4Kw (this means ~ 20 hours for a fully charge given efficiency losses and a 10A charger). Since you can only charge over night, we were able to charge about half. This costs £10. This is similar to a motorway service station. However it is far from extortionate.
In reality the above isn’t a CON it’s a PRO. I was just giving some additional info for electric car owners.
Make sure you book the nights charging before you arrive because it’s situated I. Front of a specific assigned car parking space.
•Limited Plant Based options in their main restaurant.
Overall:
I would fully and warmly recommend this excellent little hotel.
