Unusual property, perfect location next to Marwell zoo. Staff very attentive & helpful, especially the receptionist who checked us in. Swimming pool area a little dated, with dangerously slippery floor. Used restaurant for evening meal, food overpriced for what we had, also hot offerings at breakfast were cold

Lovely people at reception and bar areas. Warm welcome etc. Room was well equipped and clean. Bed was very comfortable and a good size. Breakfast was very good, although a bit limited on fruit and yogurts etc. Would definitely stay again even though I did not visit the zoo, which was not a noisy place to stay!
