High Corner Inn

Excellent staff, made us feel very welcome. Dog friendly and delicious food, all in a beautiful setting.

We are repeat customers. This is probably our 7th or 8th visit. Love the area...great for walks. Love how remote The High Corner Inn is. There seems to be a high staff turnover the past few years however bar and restaurant staff were excellent on this visit and couldn't have been more welcoming. Only two complaints...it has become quite expensive and the food quality is not as good. We all felt that the value for money in terms of food and drinks was not as good as in the past. In fairness, there are offers available but not every night so when service is added it can get pricey. Two of our group had fish pie yesterday and it was very bland and watery. For a proper "full English" breakfast there is a £4 surcharge per person. You can opt for the lighter version though at no extra cost but, again, it felt like a way of making a bit more money. The other gripe is the past two years running we have almost been pressured to not have our room serviced. We kind of felt obliged to say no when the cleaner asked us directly outside our rooms as she was looking flustered. The rooms get very dirty due to mud, etc, from the forest. They need to let guests just use the regular door hangers to say if we want rooms serviced or not rather than catching us straight after breakfast. Despite this, we will return as we love the area and we still love the friendly welcome, but will probsbly branch out and eat elsewhere in the future.

Room was lovely but not enough tea bags (only 2). We had to ask for the homemade goodies which were advertised as being in room. Food in restaurant was bland. No mushrooms or tomatoes for hreakfast as ran out! The best part of the hotel is its fabulous location and wonderful staff particularly Ruby and Mike.

We love this place, very comfortable. Food is amazing, however we did find our breakfast a little cold at times. Our room was very cosy but maybe could do with a deep clean in the bathroom. There was a drain odour, but that could havd been the toilet brush that was absolutely rank. Not what you expect to see when stepping out of the shower. We really had a great relax. Many thanks

Arrived to inn and was met with a power cut, was offered another site or to wait. Offered a drink and sat by open fire...nice. However, we noticed an issue with staff... fractious. Breakfast was weak, dinner was good. Very same pub menu, drink offers.

The hotel location is great if you enjoy walking and a quiet trip away from everything. We found this place in the summer on a walk and decided to go back and stay. It only has a few rooms so nice and quiet and attached to a nice pub with a good menu and drinks. The main issue i have is the room descriptions on Expedia do not exist in reality, i booked a superior room, there aren't any, only standard rooms or 1 larger suite. In our room, only a bath with shower attachment, which with a sloping roof you cannot stand under. But again i feel this is an Expedia problem not really the hotel fault.

Lovely little cosy place. Lovely room for 2 adults to get away. Right in the middle of the forest. Nice food options. Would come back.

Delightful surprise in the middle of the national park. Excellent food in this quaint and quiet location.

A lovely location in the middle of the New Forest. Nice rooms but bathroom in need of some TLC and a bath with shower attachment not really fit for showering, as no shower curtain so water everywhere. Ask for a room with walk in shower. Hairline crack in sink which could easily have been filled. Reasonably clean although bedside lights could do with a dust inside shades. The start of mould on ceiling above bed. Just a bit of care and attentin required. Saying that it was nicely decorated and the bed was very comfortable. The food over priced for what you got - nearly £19 for a burger and chips. Poor service the evening we had dinner and gave up on the idea of dessert after waiting 20 minutes for the menu and then another 20 minutes for someone to take our order. Breakfast was chaotic as one member of staff trying to do everything and we did feel for her as guests went for breakfast at the same time. Waited over 30 minutes for meal and it came with out hash browns as they had run out and the food was cold. We did not have time to wait for another one and decided to give breakfast a miss on the 2nd morning. Our complaint with regards food was taken on board and a refund given but a disappointing stay over all.

A lovely romantic getaway! Very friendly staff, tastefully decorated rooms and great breakfast! Its remote but its a great position to explore the area. We werent very impressed with our dinner from the pub but we ordered late so maybe we were just unlucky. We stayed in 'Normandy' room which is a superior double - nice room but it only has a bath, no shower, which we didnt realise when we request a room with a bath. We would definitely stay again when in the area.

Nice room, friendly staff and good service. Stayed at a number of Butcombe pubs. Others have extras in room eg complimentary drink or biscuits, this one had nothing. Food was good but I am afraid the beer was not to the normal Butcombe standards.

Great location in the New Forest - even the car park was full of ponies- blessed with good weather, we ate on the patio for lunch and breakfast, both excellent, as was dinner in the restaurant. Large bath with hand held shower, the room was a good size, clean and comfortable and the staff friendly and welcoming- happy to recommend

The king size bed was ooooh so comfy . Plug for hairdryer in wardrobe ???? Hopeless ,! Lovely hotel in the heart of the forest but very pricey on the drinks 22.70 fir two glasses of wine , Needless to say we didn’t get drunk

A little tired. No functional WiFi, lack of service at breakfast and some hot water issues. Left feeling slightly disappointed & underwhelmed

Great Inn in a great location. Great staff. The internet could be more reliable.

Amazing stay perfect for a chilled relaxing holiday. Central to most of where we wanted to go. It’s literally in middle of moors with only horses, deers and cows around. Fantastic staff and lovely breakfast. Room clean - wi fi iffy but tbh it was a welcome break from technology and meant we chilled a lot more x

Our room was very comfortable, spacious and decorated beautifully. The hotel is in a peaceful location surrounded by nature and was very quiet. All of the staff we interacted with were polite and friendly. We enjoyed a delicious meal in the pub for dinner. The only disappointment with our stay was the confusion over breakfast. In the room they advise a breakfast to go pack is available if you need to check out prior to 8am. As we needed to do that we asked the dinner staff how we organise that. After a few enquiries we were told someone would be in the restaurant prior to 8am that we could speak to and they would pack us something to take with us. We arrived at the restaurant to check out just before 8am and were not left a note by staff the night before and that the chef didn't arrive until 8am meaning further delays as he'd have to then cook something. As a result we left empty-handed as we had to leave and couldn't wait any longer. We contacted the hotel about this via Expedia to advise of this as we were driving to our next destination but haven't had a response so are writing it here.

We love this place. Second stay here and this time to celebrate a birthday so had the bigger room. A wonderdul stay as always and still quiet despite a party of guests arriving for our second night.

Lovely location and great hospitality! Would definitely stay here again.

Room was small and was impossible to get to left hand side of bed as it has a slopped roof. Staff were friendly but on our first night meal we had to wait nearly an hour as they could not cope but they did apologise for that, I asked for steak on the last night and for it to be medium cooked but when I got it the plate was full of blood and it was very rare, my wife had fish of the day but they covered it with so much hot spices my wife had to scrape it all off before she could eat it for the price the food was not great. Also, internet was hit and miss if you got a connection and there was absolutely no mobile signal but that’s not their fault. In middle of forest so if you like walks it ideal and dog friendly.
