Beautiful setting and I liked completely person free check-in so didn't have to worry about arriving very late. ( Did have to phone earlier for code because Expedia hadn't sent the email with the code). My economy single room had the A35 just outside - so quite noisy particularly since motorway closed for road works and lots of diverted traffic. To be fair, the details did say it was road facing I just didn’t realise quite how close the road would be.

The property is in a good location for access to the New Forest and coast, with large grounds to walk a dog. The bathroom was large with good & clean facilities, inlcuding freestanding bath and really nice shower. The room itself was enormous with a Queen(?) size bed (which was comfy enough) a wardbrobe, desk, one chair and tressle table with a kettle etc on. So much wasted space - a small fridge would have been useful, patricularly for dog food, milk etc etc, and a settee/armchairs to fill the roughly 4 metre void between the end of the bed and the wall where the TV was - to watch the TV, the only option was to sit on the bed which miles away, meaning the volume had to be turned up (probably annoying the neighbours). One wooden chair is really not enough. Biggest issue was the thin wall between rooms, and doors to rooms right next to each other, meaning you could hear the neighbours going out late at night or early morning to walk their dog, leading to 3 broken nights sleep. The room could easily lose a foot of space to accomodate the thickening and soundproofing of the wall between rooms. No reception or staff on hand. Access to building & bedroom via a code on the door - main entrance code changed and notified by text (not a great reception in the area) but inorrect code given. Room code changed halfway through our stay so couldn't get in (apparently notified by email - not received until after we left AND don't check emails on holiday). Not a Retreat!

I had a lovely stay this weekend at The Retreat. I was expecting a single room as I was a solo traveller but was pleasantly surprised that it was in fact a double bed with a very large ensuite (both a shower and bath). The room was a pleasant temperature, with only slight noise from the road (I had the window open for fresh air but at night the traffic is limited anyway so not an issue). There were tea and coffee facilities and shampoo/shower gel available. The room is accessed via a key code sent a couple of hours ahead of arrival and there is an emergency contact number for staff if needed. I had breakfast at the restaurant next door and it was very reasonably priced and excellent quality. Staff in the restaurant were very friendly and accommodating, I would recommend eating on site if you stay here. Lovely short walk around the grounds finished a very pleasant stay. Next time I will book ahead and try a treatment or class 😊

Really lovely hotel for a long weekend. It is on a main road but we had a back facing room so couldn’t hear any traffic noise. You do need to drive or take a taxi to get to the closest town for dinner options - although the on site restaurant was very nice for breakfast.

Arrived at 17.00. No staff. Main door locked. Codes for main door and room sent during the day by e.mail unknown to me. Got help from adjacent cafe. Once inside the main facilities were good. Found irons and boards in corridor. Unfortunately, the 1st iron did not get hot and the 2nd fused the main power when plugged in. No staff to report to. Could be a very dangerous situation. Never saw a member of the hotel staff at any time during our stay. We checked out at the stipulated time 10.00.
