“This adults-only property caught my attention as a finalist for the Muddy Stiletto Awards, suggesting a certain level of local acclaim and charm. The location offers a balanced experience, close enough to the New Forest and Paultons Park, but with an intimate, quieter atmosphere. From what I've gathered, this place seems ideal for those wanting to explore the region without sacrificing a relaxing, peaceful stay.”
