Wish I had found this place years ago. Great hosts. Lovely garden would have liked better weather to sit out in it. Comfortable room with own external door so easy to access. Lots of storage space. Shower room was a bit small. Nice breakfast. You can eat takeaway meals in the dining room in the evenings. large car park at the rear. Near to petrol station/Tesco and fish and chip shop. Also The Heath pub/restaurant across the road. Excellent value.

Excellent service, a nice room, fabulous breakfast and superb value. I think you would genuinely struggle to find anywhere better that this and compared to a Travelodge or Premier Inn it's really nice and peaceful.

The b&b is disgusting! Our toilet had poo stains down it, the toilet outside was really dusty! Our room hadn’t been hoovered nor had the rest of the b&b, my bed smelt mustie 😷 breakfast was nice. I know there Closing soon but they should still give a good service due to the price they charge.. it’s a shame as I’ve been here before and it was lovely?

A lovely guest house with local amenities close by. Family run everyone was so friendly. The rooms have everything you need and are very comfortable and well presented, I loved that there is a guest fridge that you can use. Breakfast was lovely and freshly cooked I’m gluten free so it was lovely to find out that it was no problem for them.

I stayed at ashdene last weekend in room 1, when I arrived I was welcomed by ian the owner who was very polite, our room was extremely clean, the bathroom smelt of fresh bleach and it was so clean with a boat toilet roll hee hee, our bed looked lovely with 2 swan towels made out of towels I didnt want to use them haha The village is about a 5 minute drive and we even visited the lovely marina and had lovely walk with an ice cream.. The shower was very powerful and the bedding was fresh and clean.. We had a couple of glasses of wine out in ashdene beautiful garden, so peaceful with beautiful flowers, lovely pond.. Our mouth watering breakfast was so tasty We will be back to this beautiful b&b and with great hosts ian and cathy.. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The B&B was lovely for the most part, if it wasn't for the milk it would definitely be 5 stars. The food is delicious, the beds are so comfy and the man Ian is very friendly. But... I had mouldy milk, it was in sachets in the room. I drank lots of it in my tea, it was so lumpy and it made me sick. The next day, I politely told the woman, in order to let her know about the 8 MONTHS out of date sachets in my room and possibly others. I understand that mistakes happen but the worst thing (other than drinking vile milk that made me sick) is that Cathy didn't even apologise and barely seemed to care. It is a shame because other than that it is such a lovely B&B. I feel bad writing this review because of how nice is it but giving out of date milk is one thing but no apologising is really unfair and unprofessional.…

Response from Ian Lee, Owner at Ashdene Guest House
Responded 4 Apr 2021
So sorry to hear of the out of date milk. We however do not stock or use sachets of milk or put them into the rooms; we use either fresh milk in a jug or in date cartoned milk; we can only guess that it must have been left in your room by the previous occupant (it does happen) and we didn't spot it when renewing the tray, our apologies for that and Cathy is sorry if you felt that she didn't care, she did and it was rectified immediately. But we are glad you enjoyed your stay other than this incident.

Cathy and Tony make you feel really welcome from the moment you arrive. Located on the edge of the New Forest, the atmosphere at Ashdene is relaxed and sets you up for a great day of sightseeing, walking, and much more. My favourite was Beaulieu - the village, museum and much more - only a short drive (or cycle ride) away, But if you want more ideas, just ask Tony, who can suggest any number of places to keep you busy.

Stayed here for just over a week while relocating to Southampton. The owners are friendly, cater for different diet needs and the rooms are cosy, clean and the area is nice and quiet. Pretty much everything I look for in a B&B with the bonus that the breakfast is filling, the coffee strong and the rooms are a good size. Would stay again and recommend to anyone.
