The white Buck is beautiful with a gorgeous interior set in the heart of the New Forest and only a short ride to Burley. We stayed in Griffin room, which was a luxurious junior suite. The room has great facilities, including a Nespresso machine. We enjoyed the breakfast, both mornings of our stay. There is a great selection of food available, including a gluten-free option. We enjoyed the atmosphere of eating on the beautiful terrace on the sunny mornings. The evening meals were just as delicious. Although we didn't have a dog with us, the hotel is extremely dog friendly with a lot of thoughtful touches.

The stay wasn't long enough!

The location of the hotel was perfect and the rooms were decorated very tastefully to make them very relaxing. It was a peaceful setting yet close to all facilities. The menu range for all meals was varied and suited my needs at the time. Breakfast was included and was delicious. Julie, Evie and Sharie were great hosts and friendly to talk to. In particularly, Evie explained how to get to a location I was looking for. If I was staying longer I could envisage taking advantage of their lunch offer and sitting out in the front garden having a long lunch. A perfect place to replenish the soul.

we had an amazing stay for our first wedding anniversary. This country pub was exactly what we were after, it was in a perfect location, great interior, lots of space but still cosy. our room was a good size, very clean with some very kind touches - beer and biscuits. we were in a dog friendly room, zero issues with anything and there was a lovely little care package for our pooch. We had a fantastic meal, everything we ate was good, great service and a great selection of drinks. we ate elsewhere on our second night but wished we hadn't! breakfast each morning was very good, nice selection of hot food and also cereals etc to help yourself to. everyone we encountered (staff and guests) were friendly and chatty. we can't wait to come back again.

nothing! keep doing what you're doing!

Warm welcome on arrival. Room was larger than expected and beautifully furnished. Loved the thoughtful extras - fresh water each day, slippers and toiletries, plus fresh milk available for making tea and coffee in the room. Staff were all very friendly and helpful. Breakfast excellent and freshly cooked to order. We ate dinner in the restaurant on three of our four evenings, varied menu and food was excellent. Hotel very dog-friendly and great location with walking routes in the New Forest from the hotel doorstep. All the main visitor attractions were within a 30 minute drive.

Nothing - it was all great

Excellent breakfast freshly cooked. I had the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and it was so good to see that the eggs were freshly made rather than the rubbery kind so often served. Hubbys full English was excellent too. Staff very attentive but with a quiet manner, very relaxed atmosphere, very welcoming from the minute we arrived seeking light refreshments. Nothing was too much for them. Openly offering allergy menu alternatives and a great choice of non alcoholic drinks behind the bar. Not just dog friendly but proactively embracing your 4 legged friend with a dog washing area, treat tins & water everywhere and some goodies in the room for him/her. Lots of walks on your doorstep so no need to keep getting in the car. We would definitely return and recommend.

Nothing

Food was amazing. Had dinner for the 2 nights we stayed and breakfast for the 2 mornings. Absolutely lovely! Couldn't fault it. Staff very friendly & hard working. Grounds and hotel are stunning. Really well positioned to start walking, so you don't have to drive anywhere to get started! 20mins down a track to Burley village, which is so pretty. Very welcoming to dogs! Would absolutely stay again.

Only a few minor gripes. We weren't given our Pamper Pet package and when we said we hadn't received it the receptionist just shrugged like "oh well". Housekeeping wasn't great for the rooms. Towels weren't changed and floor not swept. We had a dog and it was muddy out, so would have appreciated a quick sweep. I would've done it myself if they'd left me a broom! But honestly, these were very minor inconveniences to the overall experience.

Everyone went above board to make an enjoyable stay. And the breakfast was excellent with very attentive staff. The location was good as there are alot of woods and heathland to walks and the main market towns were all within 1/2 hour drive.

We booked a hotel that allowed dogs, but the hotel rooms were not very clear as to which rooms were dog oriented to the point that you have to call them to check, this could be sorted out easily by a simple drop down choice of dog friendly rooms and non dog friendly rooms. Because the hotel has the same names for both types of standard (dog/non).

Very good service from some staff who were really friendly, the interior is very cute and cosy too. Really nice breakfast. The rooms are also very nice and clean. Close to walks and the countryside.

We put up the ‘please clean’ sign and it was ignored, I assume they don’t do it after a certain time. One lady on reception wasn’t the most welcoming but all other staff were lovely. We also asked about nearby walks or a leaflet and the staff member didn’t have either. I think it would be good to have some leaflets of nearby walks. Our shower was quite stiff and would drip cold water from the top.

Everything was perfect, it was the quintessential B&B to stay in a very British place surrounded with gorgeous forest. The rooms were beautiful, comfortable and cozy. The bathroom had shampoo, conditioner and soap made by a local company and really nice quality. The food was really good and their breakfast menu had all the options that you would wish for. Their yogurt was fantastic too. Thank you so much for the love and care you put into this establishment. I could see the other guests being very happy to be there and the locals coming in for their morning coffee. Beautiful decorated, worthy of a magazine spread on gorgeous English design. I can’t wait to come back to England and stay here again.

The hotel room was more than we expected , the bed was super comfy, and the whole experience was more than amazing. It was mine and my partners 9 year anniversary and we had brought our dog along and when we got to the room and saw the lil dogy hamper with bowels , towels, tennis ball, dog boscuit ans shampoo for him it made it that more for us. Breakfast and dinner were exceptional, and we couldn't have wished for anything more !! We were over the moon with the hotel and would 1000% reccomed to anyone staying, especially with dogs.

Nothing at all everything was spot on !!
