    well equipped kitchen
    attentive staff
    spacious living area
    dirty pool area
    soft beds

    The stay was pleasant, featuring excellent heating and hot water in the luxury lodge. The kitchen area was adequately equipped, with large TVs in both bedrooms and a spacious living room. The outdoor activities provided enjoyable options for children, and the staff were attentive and helpful throughout my work visit.

    The outdoor pool area was somewhat unkempt.

    cleaning issues

    The stay was enjoyable with beautiful scenery and really friendly staff who made the experience memorable. the lodge could have been cleaner, and privacy was limited due to close quarters with other lodges. Still, the hot tub and activities available were definite highlights.

    hot tub
    welcome basket
    clean lodge
    small bathroom

    I had a great time relaxing in the Indulgent Heartwood Lodge for 4 nights! The hot tub was just perfect after a long day exploring, and the welcome basket with goodies was a lovely touch. The cleanliness of the lodge really impressed me, and I couldn’t get enough of the spacious kitchen and nice living area. I would definitely return!

    alpaca walk
    indoor play area

    We loved the alpaca walks and the variety of activities available, especially the glowing laser tag and mini archery! Our kids had a blast on the soft play and playgrounds. On one evening, we enjoyed a great meal at Aubrey's, which had recently been renovated and was very stylish inside.

    activities
    nature walks
    live performances
    seating arrangement

    We had an amazing stay with our four kids! The range of activities was fantastic. They enjoyed the entertaining shows, especially the live performances and fun games in the club room. Plus, the nature walks were a hit with the family, allowing us to connect with the beautiful environment.

    My wife says that the entertainment area needs better seating for families. It would make our evenings so much more comfortable after a long day.

    amazing views

    Family getaway, mostly worth it

    We had an amazing time just soaking in the views and enjoying the Alpaca walk, really unique and made our trip special. The staff were super helpful, checking on us almost daily to make sure we had what we needed, felt like a personal touch, ya know?

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but for what we got, I’d say it was still acceptable.

    decent kitchen
    welcome gift

    Family with children, worth a visit

    We recently took a trip to this holiday park and the little things really made a difference. The lodge we got had this decent kitchen, packed with everything we needed, even a little welcome gift for the kids!

    It wasn’t exactly a bargain, but they made up for it with solid service.

    clean accommodation

    It was a good pick for a short interlude in Fordingbridge with good value. The staff were incredibly friendly and responsive, which was a nice surprise. Arrive at Aubreys before peak hours to avoid a wait.

    woodland bunk beds
    magical hideaway

    It was just a proper fit for a mini-break over the weekend in Fordingbridge with good value for money. The woodland bunk beds made my kids feel like they were in a magical hideaway with their own TVs. Make sure to check the takeaway options at the Woodside Inn for a quick meal.

    clean caravan
    good location
    expensive shop

    pleasant stay but pricey shop items

    The 8 Berth Superior Caravan was impeccably clean, ensuring a comfortable and refreshing environment for our stay. The location was convenient, providing easy access to nearby attractions and a lovely site shop with unique items, perfect for gifts.

    The prices at the site shop were a bit high, making regular purchases feel less budget-friendly.
