| The Stanwell is a luscious hotel whose every surface and fabric bursts with fruity, jewelled shades of vibrant colour. Velvets and silks adorn windows and cover plump cushions. Burnished bare boards and York stone flags create stylish floors. An eclectic mix of junkshop finds prints and antiques fill the rooms with a riot of images, and even on the dreariest winter day the spirits soar.
Dining at the award winning Stanwell House is to a very high standard and local produce is used wherever possible. Dining at night is always by the light of many candles. The pretty walled gardens is sheltered and south facing for a spot of al fresco and the conservatory is a cosy year round meeting place for dining, beverages or just plain idling. The emphasis at Stanwell is on friendly, unobtrusive yet efficient service. The ambience is gentle, romantic, decadent at times, but always relaxing. There are no dress codes.
Our independent, 4-star guest accommodation is located just one mile from the edge of the New Forest within the National Park, and within easy reach of Southampton and Salisbury.
Whether you are on business or taking a break we make the ideal location. Located halfway between Southampton and Salisbury (approximately 9 miles from each), the New Forest Lodge makes the ideal base for a weekend getaway to the New Forest, Winchester, Salisbury, Southampton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth and the Isle of Wight; not to mention the many yachting and beauty spots of the neighbouring counties of Hampshire and Dorset.
For your comfort we are a non-smoking establishment. The on-site Royal Jaipur Indian restaurant and bar has been refurbished to provide a range of delicious dishes in contemporary surroundings. There is also a traditional pub, The Landford Poacher, serving a range of good food within a short walk. Please note that we have free wireless broadband access.
