Rhinefield House Hotel

Overall great staff and great venue.

A wonderful location and the property setting is breathtaking. The grounds are beautiful and an evening walk shouldn’t be missed. All the staff were helpful and made every effort to assist. Breakfast a little chaotic but again, staff were trying to help where they could. Our room was clean and comfortable and had all amenities we needed for a short stay. Public areas of the hotel were a little tired but those in the older part of the hotel were interesting and we could understand the wedding venue use. Our main gripe was about the poll. We had booked the hotel on the basis of the outdoor pool. We were disappointed as it is actually quite small (for the size of the hotel) and there were only three sun loungers that were immediately taken and kept by the same individuals all day. We felt pictures of the pool area provided led to incorrect assumptions about possible pool experience. No other areas were available for relaxing and sunbathing. There were wooden and rather uncomfortable tables and chairs on the patios that guests used, but these weren’t really suitable, especially as seat cushions were hard to find. Overall, a lovely venue, just in need of an uplift but not a place offering r&r round a pool.

Outstanding! An exceptional hotel, wonderful facilities, great food and most importantly incredible staff. Nothing was too much trouble to get and provide to us. Beautiful grounds well maintained and very peaceful and relaxing. Will definitely stay again.

Another pleasant stay at the Rhinefield Hotel, the staff were very helpful and friendly. The room exceeded my expectations, milk in the fridge replenished daily and complimentary bottle of wine. Great choices for breakfast and food was superb. Love the hotel setting, an ideal stay for the New Forest. Cannot fault anything and will return at a later date.
