We were warmly welcomed. We stayed in the Gardener's Lodge, the view of the pond, the gardens and the ducks were so relaxing. It was VERY clean and comfortable. Usually we end up with back aches from the beds, we were pleasantly surprised that we did not!!! Breakfast was fresh, even the toast was served hot. After 2 nights, we... More

Just spent a wonderful weekend with kingfisher retreat, The gardens are superb, the rooms are spotless(really made you feel it would be rude to keep your shoes on!) They have everything you would want, very well thought out, and all the fittings are in perfect condition. Breakfasts were superb with quality ingredients, cooked while you enjoyed cereal and juices.

Very comfortable room with everything you need including fridge, wine glasses & bottle opener (was very nice to enjoy a couple of glasses relaxing in our room after a busy day. Beautiful location with walks on the door stop... More

We stayed in the Gardeners lodge a few days ago which is detatched from the main cottage and would definitely come back. The lodge, main cottage and garden is beautiful. The whole place is full of charm and is so picturesque. If you want a beautiful retreat in the new forest this is the perfect place to go to. More

We stayed in early February and was the perfect place to go for a quiet retreat in the New Forest. The Gardeners Lodge is separate from the main building and was full of charm and an ideal place to relax after a day of adventures in the forest. There were plenty of places to eat and visit in the area... More

This is clearly an above average B&B. We stayed in the lodge which is detached from the main building, its spacious, well equipped and has a bucket load of charm. The lodge faces the duck pond in a pretty garden. Parking is provided on site and its relatively easy to get to and get around from there to other parts... More

We booked the Kingfisher retreat after finding that the 4* and 5* hotels in the area were fully booked - and we're so glad we did! The photos on the website don't do it justice, it's in an idyllic setting by a lake with easy access to decent restaurants but the most important thing is the accommodation - it really... More

I do hesitate at paying £ 80 for a B&B, but we were in very good size room, in nice location. Accommodation & food obviously provided by people who are very house proud & want to give a good service - breakfast was delicious & generous. - Fresh mixed fruit salad, cereals, toast all available alongside a very nicely cooked...
