“Biking for a bevvy”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 29 January 2012

person found this review helpful

The Turfcutters is a proper pub. I was so pleased with myself to have found a decent pub smack in the middle of my bike route. Each time I have been there you cannot fault the service, staff or offering. Whether you fancy a pint, a light lunch or hearty meal, I cannot reccommend this place enough.
At the weekends the tables tend to be reserved, a great sign, but the staff have always found room to squeeze us in. This place has not been 'gastrofied'. There are no 'jus' or 'foams' that accompany the meals. Just well created, seasonal dishes served in a cracking pub atmosphere. Think sanded chunky table tops and a roaring fire.
The pub caters for locals, tourists and even cyclists in lycra. The game casserole and curry are worth the trip alone.
The regular beers are Ringwood with seasonla guests in the spring / summer.

“Lovely stay”

Had a lovely stay, room clean, comfy, warm and had everything we needed (only comment is that a bigger/more powerful shower head would have been good) Ideal for dog owners as lovely walk behind pub and enclosed pub garden. Food in evening and breakfast excellent, welcome warm and genuine. Very good value.We will be back.

“Staying in Rabbit could become a habit!”

What a lovely, friendly place to stay! Clean, spacious rooms with the mod cons that you need and the pub has an interesting history as well. The food was excellent, the breakfast offering variations on the egg and bacon theme to suit everyone, whilst the lunch and dinner menu offered some lovely, different choices, all cooked to perfection. Service was quick and all staff really friendly and we had dogs in our party who were also treated as welcome guests. We are looking forward to another visit quite soon!

“It's fine if your a local.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 November 2011

I decided to take the family out for meal to the New forest last weekend. All was well,we ordered our drinks and meals and sat and waited for the food. My daughter in law wanted to use the facilities and had to pass through a narrow part of the bar to get to them. The five or six locals made no effort to let her through and the same thing on her way back. The food was ok but my one grip is that I ordered a rib eye steak at a cost of £14-50 and when I got it all there was on the plate was a smallish steak and chips .half the plate was salad,no peas, no mushrooms. So if there is a next time which I doubt I'll ask the weight of the steak and what comes with it.

“great place to stay”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 November 2011

Stayed, again, at the Turfcutters for a 3 day break in October. As usual the room was comfortable, the staff friendly and the food lovely, Simon and Jed always make the guests feel part of the family. The Turfcutters is a characterful pub in a peaceful setting within easy reach of lots of New Forest visitor places and good walking opportunities. Ponies visiting in the morning are a delight. We will definitely be back for another visit in 2012, hopefully in the Spring.
