Great place, lovely people
We couldn't fault the service, nothing was too much trouble. We had supper in the pub and the food was delicious, so much so that we couldn't manage a full breakfast the next day which was a pity. We will certainly be staying at the Montagu Arms again. The location was perfect

We stayed in a House Suite, which was fine. Decor a *bit* tired, but not terrible. Comfy bed, big bath. Wouldn’t say it should cost the best part of £400 a night, but we had a nice stay.

It's a fantastic hotel with bags of character. The staff are all super friendly and it is in an area that is great for walking and also handy for all that the Beaulieu estate has to offer.

We've just come back from a lovely bank holiday stay. The rooms were clean and airy with everything you could need. The bed was very comfortable and the shower had great pressure. The staff were very friendly. Our dog was very much welcomed and looked after too.
