Glasson LakeHouse
10/10 Excellent
"Our stay was perfect & exactly what we needed. The hotel is very well kept & the bedrooms were fully stocked with everything we needed. We ate here for lunch & dinner, the food was amazing & breakfast the next day had a great selection. We travelled with our son, he's 1.5 years & had asked for a cot in the room, which was put in straight away. However, the cot was very small, fit for a baby but certainly not a toddler, so we ended up having to rearrange the beds to be beside the wall so we could bedshare. Not a big deal, but we would have brought our own travel cot to avoid this. We were very disappointed that we had to pay €10 resort fee upfront to avail of the *free* amenities such as the gym (didn't use) playground (didn't use) bikes (didn't use) towels (is this a joke?!) and daily filtered water (again, are you serious?!) I didn't see this anywhere on the main website or third party & is something that should be clearly stated before booking."
Shearwater Hotel & Spa
8/10 Good
"Everything from the carpark through to the reception and bedroom were spacious, clean and comfortable. We had a meal in the bar which was both tasty and well priced. It was refreshing to hold a conversation without having to battling the 'ambient music' that so often is to loud in other establishments. We had a small query regarding the heating in the room which was dealt with immediately. The only small negative was only one lift was in operation so waiting times were longer than normal."
Gleesons Restaurant & Rooms
8/10 Good
"A nice place to say with friendly staff. I was initially worried that the fan noise in the bathroom and from a room opp mine would continue all night but it turned off around 11pm. Breakfast was nice as was shower. Food in restaurant was ok but have had better. Trying to find the car park was messy and the public car park was easier to use. Would be nice if there was a reception room for the bar as just inside the door, there's no privacy and a random guy kept interrupting our conversation."
New Forest Golf Club Apartments
8/10 Good
"Paul at the reception was very helpful and put us at ease with our stay. Peaceful destination and beautiful grounds."
