Room was lovely and clean but we found the staff quite rude in general and cooked breakfast was poor, all cooked breakfast was over done. Nice for 1 night but I don’t think we would stay again.

Fantastic service, food and drink. Room was fabulous and well resourced. My only very slight issue was that breakfast did not start until 8am, in saying that the continental breakfast the night before for us was excellent.

Great Stay Overall

We stayed in the Goldilocks room the room was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed... The bed was clean, but we could feel a couple of springs when lying down. Breakfast first morning was a 6/10 the bread looked and tasted cheap. The bacon was streaky and fatty. Second morning the bread was better quality but bacon still streaky and fatty 7/10. There is lots to do in the local area including the New Forest and a short drive to sea.

Lovely stay. The staff upgraded us to a larger room because of the extra stairs we had to climb with our luggage. They did not charge us. Dinner was delicious, and the service wonderful.

Lovely stay at the Bear of Burton. We treated our sons and their partners to an evening meal and overnight stay. The whole evening was great. The atmosphere was perfect. The staff were all extremely helpful, and our rooms were delightful. I can’t fault the meal, the service, the room or the lovely breakfast. I would recommend a stay here.
