The Shoe Inn - Plaitford

We visited the New Forest for the first time with family and decided to go out for a meal. There were only four people at the bar, but when we asked if we could eat, we were met with a blunt refusal, as we hadn't made a reservation. While I understand the policy, the attitude of the bartender was rude and unnecessary. Unfortunately, we won't be returning to this establishment and certainly won't be recommending it to others.

**Service: 5/5** **Location: 5/5** **Hotel Highlights: Excellent value** The service was outstanding, earning a perfect score of 5. The location was also top-notch, deserving of another 5. Overall, this hotel is a fantastic choice, providing great value for your stay.

The inn has a charming cottage-style atmosphere and features friendly, helpful staff along with a clean room. Unfortunately, our sleep was quite disturbed due to the noise from the busy main road right outside our window. We were frequently awakened by the sounds of speeding cars and trucks. If you’re seeking a peaceful and relaxing getaway, I wouldn't recommend staying here. Rooms: 2 Service: 5 Location: 1
