Very pleasant. And clean. Should have more cleaning staff the check is far too late.
4-night trip

6/10

The grounds are beautiful and the reception staff were lovely. Slightly disappointed with the accommodation as it was very tired and dirty. It was also in an outbuilding and not the main hotel. Again, in dire need of modernisation.
2-night trip

8/10

Difficult to know what to say. Apartment spacious, excellent amenities, very clean but unfortunately in dire need of a refurbishment. Dingy walls, yellow chipped paintwork, double glazed units blown, kitchen plinth kept falling down on my feet. If you can see by the tired look of the place you can’t beat it. Staff always friendly and helpful, great position next to ferry but too far out of town for us. Having said all this I would stay there again

Great stay
3-night trip

8/10

Location was great and loved that we had our own apartment which was good value. However, during our stay, there were a couple of prom events that we weren’t informed about. When queried, the response was an email was sent, which I never received as I booked through a third party. I would have expected a better notification for the guests staying there, such as possibly a notice at the front desk. The hotel manager, was in the lobby one evening, where his guests were staying and instead of asking the guest how their stay was, or the reason for the visit, he was only interested in the people associated with the prom. The reason for this trip was a friends birthday, which was mentioned. Booked the afternoon tea, no extra goodwill gesture was offered, such a piece of birthday cake or an extra glass of champagne. The service during the afternoon tea, was disappointing. Initial order was placed and the service took quite some time and trying to get anyone’s attention was a challenge. Appreciate there was people in the bar and staff were attending to those guests too, but maybe more staff are required. Overall was a good stay and would return, just disappointed with the lack of attention to detail.

2-night trip

6/10

Its ok. Just ok. The most unusual thing about this hotel is a 5pm check in and a 10am check out time. I travel almost weekly for work and this is the only hotel i’ve ever known with these hours. The main house is beautiful and the grounds are generally lovely although they need regular litter picking. Most of the accommodation is in “new” blocks that are run down and in need of some TLC. (see pictures). The SPA could also do with a revamp but is, at present, acceptable and as described. The rooms are fine - again a little dated. Ours had a patio area which again was in need of sprucing up and a jet wash. The Window to our room had blown and the meant we couldn’t enjoy the view. The bedding quality is not great and the pillow cover opening is in the middle which means if your pillow turns over in the night, your face is touching the actual pillow - sounds picky but it freaked me out. Elemis toiletries are a nice touch but only a tiny bottle for shampoo and shower gel for two people for two nights. No conditioner, no lotion or balm. We didn’t have our room cleaned whilst we there - not sure why but didn’t see any signs telling us otherwise etc. Location is great for Lymington to Yarmouth ferry - literally 5 minute walk. Nothing felt luxury here. It wasn’t bad but i doubt i would be back or recommend it to friends.

2 night stay. One bed apartment with kitchen. Large lounge, bedroom. Old style furnishings. Shower over bath. Quiet location at this time (November). Convenientt for IoW ferry. Lymington old town picturesque. New forest all around this property. Great value for money (November).

Enjoyable stay. Really liked this hotel and would go back again. We particularly enjoyed the self catering lodge - very convenient if you have small children. The grounds and pool were a hit! Staff friendly and helpful. However, property is a bit dated, needs a refresh. Breakfast is expensive for what it is and we were a bit disappointed.

A lovely trip to new forest. The hotel was very relaxed, good location & peaceful. The self catering suits were great size, but beds were uncomfortable & the pillows. Very clean & ideal for a long weekend trip. The SPA was very clean & relaxed. The restaurant was lovely & going above & beyond with dietry requirements. Lovely bar area & over all plesant stay.

Really pleasantly surprised with Elmers Court. The Hotel is in a great location with fantastic facilities. John (in the bar) and Sophie (reception) deserve a special mention as they were so welcoming and enthusiastic. The Spa, gum and pool were great and this enhanced our stay. The close proximity to the IOW ferry is super practical too.

Bizzare Breakfast situation and not at all worth it for the price. The hotel, room, staff in the reception and the gym spa area great. They should start serving breakfast in the main hotel building’s restaurant which serves dinner.

8/10

Lovely property in a great locations we really enjoyed our stay. However the room we had in the old Manor House was a bit small and restricted by too much furniture. The shower an old in line electric water heater was difficult to use and as usual with these water pressure was limited. It would also have helped to have a small fridge.

The room was very cold, with no heating. The staff did provide an extra duvet and a portable heater.The heating was still not on the next day. Also no fires or atmosphere in the bar and main lounge area The water temperature in the shower was tepid. No tissues or biscuits were provided in the room due to my having made the booking through the resort?!
