The Huntsman of Brockenhurst

Staff were amazing. Super helpful. We stayed for our 30th anniversary and it was made all the more special by the lovely room. Super cocktails in the evening and the breakfast was so fresh and tasty with a huge selection. Will definitely be back. Thankyou so much to all the staff at the Huntsman

My partner and I stayed here (25/5/24) as we had a wedding to attend at Carey’s manor just a 5 minute walk away. We had the ‘goose’ room which was perfect for the 1 night we were there. Just want to say thank you for a great stay. Breakfast was amazing and the quality of the food was as good as I’ve had anywhere. The breakfast waitress was busy but was brilliant, nothing was too much trouble for her. I would have no hesitation in staying again if we were in the New Forest area. Highly recommended.

A fabulous friendly place for a lovely lunch with friends. We were served by Pedro who was both friendly and professional and passionate about his guests having fun! Food and ambience were both great! ...................................................

Wonderful setting, peaceful and very comfortable. Staff are kind and courteous. Would definitely recommend this as a great venue to stay at. I will be taking my wide there for a week during summer to enjoy the woods and walk among the horses that roam freely around the area

What a lovely evening. Tasty food which delights and satisfies after a long day walking in the forest. Friendly professional staff who create a welcoming relaxing atmosphere..and have a good sense of humour! Dog friendly with treats a plenty...spot on The Huntsman! Shall definitely be coming back again.

Lovely pub, efficient and welcoming check in. Sunday lunch - roast (vegetarian option) was probably the best I’ve had. The two not so good things was 1) the room which, although beautifully located around a small Courtyard, was tired in places (bathroom) and could have been cleaner. There was thick dust on the lightbulbs in the main bedroom area, as well as on the ceiling in the bathroom. The tiled floor in the bathroom wasn’t particularly clean either. 2) breakfast the next morning was marred by the brusque member of staff who appeared harried and rushed despite our group being only one of three tables seated. We were travelling with two dogs and a baby and whilst fully appreciate ‘dog tables’ need to be away from the main restaurant, being seated at a bar height table made feeding an 8 month old baby impossible. We (politely) asked to sit at another table only to be told it was reserved for another dog family. In an attempt to resolve our predicament we were given a regular height chair so that mum could sit next to baby in high chair (even if this meant having to stand up every time a spoonful of food was needed for feeding baby!). This would have been laughable if not for the attitude of staff member, who eventually saw sense and moved us to a table round the corner (not before commenting that “she doesn’t mind running about after us”). Until we got to our room in the evening and experience at breakfast the next morning, we had anticipated a return visit but sadly we won’t be staying again, however we’d definitely be back for food and drink in a beautiful area of the New Forest.

Decided to stay here because the location is so well positioned in the new forest, and you are only a short walk away from the Train Station “ I have eaten here before and totally enjoyed the experience,, the Room we stayed in was out in the courtyard area,, it was very pleasant and comfortable, excellent standard of cleanliness and a nice selection of snacks if you so desire,, we both had breakfast ( full English) and it was outstanding. Cooked to perfection and to order! The lady who served us was excellent,, friendly and efficient,,would definitely recommend and will stay again ,

We booked two double rooms for our stay. They were lovely and spacious. Well furnished and very clean. The hotel/pub is on a busy road through the New Forest but there was no road noise and it was a peaceful place to stay. Breakfast was very good with a decent range of menu choices. Staff were charming. Would happily recommend.

As they were offering a special deal we decided to try out a stay at a Youngs Pub and stayed in lovely Brockenhurst in the New Forest. On arrival we received a nice welcome and were quickly shown to our room. The room was clean, tidy and well appointed with tea and coffee readily available and refilled as required. The room was a little cold on arrival as the heating wasn’t on. Also the blow heater in the room did not work. We raised the issue with the staff and we immediately received a replacement blow heater and shortly afterwards the central heating was working. The pub clearly caters for those who want a meal with a large restaurant area, however we had already made arrangements to eat out during our stay. There was a good selection of beer and wine available. We thought the charge of £15 per person for breakfast was high especially as other cafes close by or in Lyndhurst were much better value. The staff were really friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely consider staying at a Youngs pub again.
