Lime Wood Hartnett Holder Co

The restaurant isn't as good as it used to be! The quality of service has definitely declined in all aspects.

Heartfelt thanks for all the care you give to ensure a visit to Limewood is so very special. My lunch with my friend was wonderful and I was back the next day afternoon tea with work colleagues. The food is excellent but I have to rate your staff as Superb.

Pitching itself as a more quality and upmarket establishment with the backing of big London name Angela Hartnett devising the restaurant menus. The location is beautiful and the bar and restaurant classy but friendly. I felt a little watched by the staff as it was fairly quiet! Decided to come him as The Pig at Brockenhurst has a very restrictive dog policy.

Whilst on holiday in the New Forest, and as a special treat, we left toddler with grandparents and had a wonderful evening at Lime Wood. Amazing food and exceptional service. Dan and Paolo looked after us. Great fresh pasta with pigeon olives and then the saddle of lamb, hubby had the gnocchi with duck and then the Hake. Best cheeseboard I've ever seen eaten. It is expensive but we most definitely got what we paid for. Would return in a heartbeat. Fabulous!

This was my first visit back to this restaurant for lunch in over a year. We decided to try the set menu, and overall it was enjoyable, though my fish cake was served in a baked crust that overshadowed its flavor. My friend ordered the lamb liver, which came with polenta and was very tasty. He also had the dessert, which was the highlight of our meal. The restaurant seemed to only use one seating area, which felt a bit odd as half of the space remained empty. The staff were very professional, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

This was my second visit to the restaurant for lunch after more than a year away. We chose from the special menu, and overall it was quite good, although my fish pie came in a pastry shell that overshadowed its filling. My friend ordered the lamb liver, which was served with polenta and onions and was very enjoyable. He then had the steamed pudding, which turned out to be the highlight of the meal. It was a bit odd that the restaurant only used one section for seating, especially since half of the area was unused. The staff were very professional, and the atmosphere was pleasant.

After a four-year absence, we were pleasantly surprised by the high standard of service, warm welcome, and attention to detail. While the menu selection could use some improvement as it felt a bit fussy, all four of us thoroughly enjoyed our food choices. The homemade bread was delicious. The pear and walnut salad starter was delightful, and the baked hake with artichokes was wonderfully juicy, complemented by a great blend of flavors. The ambiance in the bar and restaurant was beautiful, and the Christmas decorations enhanced the warm and cozy atmosphere. Well done, Limewood team! We will be back soon!

The pear and walnut salad starter was delightful, and the baked hake with artichoke was wonderfully succulent, featuring a great range of flavors.

The hotel is lovely, But we asked if there was more than one restaurant, and we were told no. But after being seated , it was clear there were two other places to have something to eat.. In fact, three, if you count the mostly vegetarian option, at the spa although it is for hotel guests, unless they have room) Unfortunately, it must be hard to find great staff, because over and over again, our waited kept repeating to us, only starters, Only starters , making us feel badly, that we only ordered a light lunch. There were so many heads of house... it was a shame, they could engage in better training for staff, especially as many don 't have a fantastic command of the language, that it sort of...
