Careys Manor & Senspa

Fabulous stay. Great staff and facilities.

It was fantastic

Hotel is in a perfect location and walkable to some excellent local restaurants. Spa facilities were really lovely. For the amount paid I did expect a better room and bathroom facilities as these were looking a bit tired. I was a little surprised to have to pay extra for any hot breakfast choices ( this was in our booking terms but I’d not read the details in full, my miss). The continental buffet was very fresh and well stocked. Whilst we enjoyed our stay I did expect a bit better quality room for the cost.

We decided to stay for one night at this hotel and tbh it was distinctly average for the money. The main part that really let the stay down was the Cambium Restaurant with the food just being terrible. My partner ordered the mussels and when they arrived they were off and the small was rancid. The venue for the restaurant was essentially a repurposed event room and as such there was zero mood/atmosphere with the staff wandering around all looking completely as if they didn’t want to be there. The best part of this hotel was the Spa…but it does need a little updating as all the rooms were a little tired (mosaic tiles coming off the floor/walls and rattling air conditioning units in the treatment room) Lovely location though and very close to the new forest for walks and bike rides. Wouldn’t stay at this hotel again

Beautiful wooden panels in reception and main staircase. Beautiful area. Very friendly and helpful staff. Massage and spa facilities were good. We had a massage and paid extra to use the spa. The only downfall was an uncomfortable bed.

The staff were lovely, only small issue lied in the layout of the room with there being no plugs by the bed unless you dive under the mattress which was near impossible, and no holder for the soap or toilet roll, these are small quality of life changes which could be fixed super easily! Other than that, the room was lovely with a gorgeous garden view and we were made to feel very welcome, really recommend the spa facilities

Superb service! Clean hotel and friendly staff.

Perfect

Wonderful hotel and spa. Our room was very nice and quiet. Senspa was great and relaxing followed by an excellent meal in the Thai restaurant.

Very good location for visiting the New Forest. Pool steam room & Sauna adequate, but could be crowded if hotel was fully occupied.

I spent 4 beautiful days there and the staff/team were SO wonderful. They went out of their way to be accommodating to my dietary needs and so many other things. They were absolutely lovely. The hotel itself and surrounding areas were gorgeous.

This was my third stay at Careys Manor and it was just as good as I remembered. The building is beautiful and the team is very welcoming and friendly, there is a real family atmosphere amongst them. The Sen Spa facilities are 10/10, and the treatments are amazing - pure relaxation and I looked 10 years younger after my facial. Highly recommended!

Staff very friendly and helpful

A very lovely few days

The staff are really friendly, but the hotel itself could do with modernising. Our bathroom was really old with a shower not suitable for someone over 5.9, our room was boiling hot with no way to cool it down, and they didn’t replace the toiletries. Also you have to pay extra to use different spa facilities which wasn’t clear, making the experience much less relaxing.

Very nice staff, hotel decor a bit 1990s

Beautiful area, great hotel, friendly staff. Three restaurants onsite.

It was great. Particularly good having three restaurants. But I can be very picky. All about the breakfast. The coffee wasn't great. The bacon was underdone - it doesn't need to be really crispy but it does need a bit of brown to develop the flavour. The marmalade wasn't that good either. One other thing, which I suspect may be common to all hotels these days. They wouldn't give me a paracetomol when I really needed one. Probably something to do with health and safety. But really?

A new Forest gen

Would highly recommend Carreys Manor, staff go out of their way to help. All 3 restaurants the food was excellent as were the pool and spa. The room faced the garden and was well appointed with modern bathroom and large smart tv and comfortable bed and furnishings. Can’t see why not 5 star.
