We've just stayed 3 nights here for our first visit to the New Forest. We had a lovely room (one double bed & one single) at the very top of the hotel in the converted attic. The 2 flights of stairs did not bother us, but if you have difficulties with stairs, there is no lift. The room was clean... More

Really impressed with the value, great price £59.00 per night and £55 worth of full, complete, large as you like, superb English Breakfast with black pudding to die for. Great staff, understood trhe meaning of "strong tea please". You may laugh, but 5 star operators I have frequented do not get that! Rooms very clean and modern. Furniture not the... More

Thanks for kind words. We will investigate and buy a new bed ! We need that feed back otherwise no telling - we buy good quality properly sprung beds & mattresses but they don't last forever. Seasons greetings ! More

We stayed at the Penny Farthing whilst attending a family wedding nearby. Our room was in the converted attic and was very spacious despite the sloping eves. We had a double bed, full size dressing table, built in wardrobe etc and a lovely ensuite bathroom. A full English breakfast was included, or any part thereof, as well as cereal, fruit... More

Only stayed at the hotel for the one night and literally arrived, slept and left. The hotel is located a few minutes walking distance to the main high street. Parking available free of charge. Not in the most tranquil of settings, I have to say my room did rattle when a large vehicle went past. I also found the room... More

We found this place to have very good reviews on booking.com and were somewhat disappointed at the value we got for our money. We paid 236 for 2 nights which was probably inflated because we booked last minute for a sunny English weekend (they are rare). The B&B is located on a busy road and the walls are paper thin....

Oooops we can't win em all !! It is always frustrating when guests highlight the great location ie village centre, then go on to be disappointed by a road outside - you can't have it both ways. If you wish for complete peace and tranquility a central Lyndhurst Hotel is not the place to book. The Hotel is however fully... More

We have stayed at the Penny Farthing many times over the past 13 years, and always found the hotel staff friendly and helpful but his time even more so. Nothing is too much trouble, and whilst not having a computer with us, the staff were more than happy to check online for bus timetables etc. The full English breakfast is... More
