Tyrrells Ford Country Inn & Hotel in New Forest - Phone Number, Reservations, Reviews

Stayed with my daughter. Spacious room nice balcony view. Close to highcliff Castle and beach. Free parking. Bed wasn't as comfortable as I wanted. The bathroom was outdated but big. No room service. Upon check in, I was told that the hotel was due to close down for renovation the following week and would be under new management when we opened in a couple of years.

Friendly and welcoming restaurant with interesting menus. Good selection of ales on tap too.

Enjoyable stay, lovely grounds and people but our room was a little run down and the bed was uncomfortable. Although we found out we were the last guests as Tyrrells Ford has been sold and should become a spa in a couple of years!

Lovely meal with good selection on the menu

Didn't stay but eat here regularly. Food always lovely.

This pub/hotel blew me away it’s a stunning place to have a pint🍻, food and even to to stay, the locals and the staff are lovely and friendly. To top it off you get to see the planes landing in Bournemouth airport. 10/10 💯

This pub/hotel blew both me and my Mrs away stunning localtion and friendly people we will be back. 💯🍀 to top it off you can see the planes fly into Bournemouth from there beer garden. Totally recommen for a quick pint or a full night stay! 10/10 amazing. 🍀

Went to Tyrrells Ford for lunch. A very extensive menu, and high quality food, generous portion sizes. Can recommend the scampi, pork sweet and sour, and rice pudding. Will definitely visit again.

Set in lovely grounds, a fair distance from the road, so no traffic noise. This hotel has retained a lot of its original character, which really appealed to us. Rooms were nice, mattress was very comfortable. Evening meal & breakfast were very good. Staff were very friendly & helpful. Would definitely stay again.

Nice food and lovely grounds. Staff friendly. Olde worldly.

2nd time staying, lovely area & friendly staff and food is good. Will be returning again.

Went for a quick drink, they have a good range of local beers and cider. We sat outside but there is plenty of seating inside as well.

Unassuming from the road as the place seems a little neglected. Inside was also somewhat antiquated, however much to my surprise the place was bustling when I entered and I had a job to get to the bar. Couldn't decide between a real ale or cider so the Landlord insisted I try a sample of them all! Great local selection and well kept too. I wasn't dining either but the food looked homecooked and very reasonably priced compared to the other hostelries in the locality. I shall return to dine next when the Wife is at the Inlaws which means I'll have to find my own supper.😁👍

Just went for lunch. good menu . large portions. would use again.

Fantastic place, a very warm welcome, lovely setting, great food and good beer 👍

Spent 4 nights at the hotel and enjoyed every moment, Sarah, Mark and the staff friendly and nothing to much trouble, food was fantastic breakfast was excellent, Paul looked after us at breakfast and we enjoyed a few drinks in the bar on our last night with him,we will go back again

Tucked away and set in its in grounds, lovely staff and atmosphere great breakfast, highly recommended really good value for money.

Really nice hotel, in a great location , nice room and friendly staff . Would definitely stay again

Great evening meal with my Wife and Brother Derek with his Wife. Would highly recommend. Thanks to all...

The minute I stepped through the front door, I felt as though I had somehow gone through a time warp and arrived in a parallel universe back in 1975. It felt a little like being in the middle of a Fawlty Towers episode. Ringing the bell on the reception counter, and waiting an age, I truly expected Basil Fawlty to pop his head round the corner. It would have been great if he had. Alas, no Basil, Sybil, Manuel or even a moose head made an appearance, but a moth-eaten, mangy dog materialised and looked up at me. I was instantly reminded of that Peter Seller’s film when he asked the supposed owner if his dog would bite. When he was assured it wouldn’t, Sellers stuck his hand out … whereupon the dog immediately bit it. “I thought you said your dog wouldn’t bite.” Peter shouted painfully. “That’s not my dog,” came the reply. I jabbed the bell again. This time, a lady finally arrived and gave me the key to my room. Upon entering, I half-half expected Jeremy Beadle to greet me. Anaglypta wallpaper hung from the walls; slightly grubby, threadbare carpets were badly glued to the floor. The pictures on the walls were hilarious and straight out of a car boot sale circa 1975 too. The bed was clean but rather lumpy and the view out of the window was of a run-down courtyard full of dustbins. There is a restaurant of sorts here and I was tempted to try it. It might have been fun to ask for a Waldorf salad but I’m sure that if they’d told me they’d run out of Waldorfs, I wouldn’t have been able to keep a straight face. In the end, I went to the New Queen pub a mile down the road as I didn’t want to risk eating at the hotel. I was awoken in the middle of the night by a dog howling. At least, I think it was a dog, it would have come as no surprise to learn that werewolves roam the adjoining forest. Looking at the other reviews, almost every one mentions that the place needs serious updating. Can’t the owners read? Or perhaps they’re just not bothered. The grounds are the only good thing here and this hotel has the potential of being terrific, but it is very much overdue for a total restoration. In short, if you like lumpy beds, ancient wallpaper, mangy dogs and werewolves … you’ll love this place. Sadly, although I had booked (and paid in advance for) a two-night stay, I wasn’t going to endure a second night and checked out early. Dogs are welcome … best not try stroking any though, just to be on the safe side.

My wife and I were looking forward to spending a few days in the Newforest and visiting Christchurch. When we checked in to Tyrrell's Ford and went to our room we were greeted by a broken bed, cracked bathroom floor tiles, water marked walls, paint peeling off the windows. I told the reception and asked if we could be moved. When the gentleman finally returned we were told "have a look at this room but if you don't like it unfortunately that is all we have". We did look at the room and thought it was marginally better. This bed again had been broken but had been repaired with a piece of 4x2 timber. The ceiling light rose had slipped down the wire, water stains again on the wall, broken bed side cabinet, one wall light not working, paint peeling off the window, more spider webs than spider man movie. I could go on but I'm beginning to bore myself. This hotel is in a lovely location within what could be lovely grounds. It wouldn't take a lot to tidy up the two rooms we looked at just with a lick of paint and a little more attention to detail by the staff.

I stayed for three nights which wasn't enough. The building and grounds are full of character, the room was huge, very lovely staff and for an extremally reasonable price. I will defiantly be staying again.

Nice hotel, but needs an update, in the bathroom not very clean.

Super location, lovely old building but very tired. The place could use a bit of updating and sad to say my room was a little shabby and grubby and the mattress very poor quality. Having said that the atmosphere was special and the ales in very good condition. The large garden was pleasant and there was plenty of parking.

We have just had a wonderful stay. We booked for 2 and decided to increase it to 3 nights. Mark and Sarah were so helpful and accommodating to enable us to do this. We would definitely recommend it and will be going back again. Its in a beautiful spot.

I have visited this country house Inn/hotel over several decades. It sort of grows on me! I've never stayed there but I've frequently eaten and have had plenty of morning coffees, lunchtime drinks, and evening meals. It doesn't do anything exceptionally well, but is a cut above the local competition in offering a country style environment which allows dogs in the bar, and offers patrons a comfortable relaxed surroundings.

Stopped for a drink .Sat in the garden . Enjoyable

Fantastically cooked breakfast perfect. Well organised like clockwork. Very friendly and efficient staff.

We would come back here in a heartbeat. Great, friendly atmosphere. Nothing was too much trouble for our kind hosts, Mark and Sara and the building and grounds are charming and beautiful. It's not the Hilton, but neither is the price. We cannot remember better value for money. The food was great and the accommodation comfortable. Thanks for a great long weekend. Pete and Karen

Staff are very friendly and warm, nothing too much bother, food is lovely and plenty of it. I would definitely recommend and will be returning

Beautiful surroundings, my family and friends love the ambience and the food is exceptional. I have eaten here frequently

Vriendelijk personeel Maar voor mensen moeilijk ter been een ramp om in je kamer te komen. Het is een prachtig oud pand .maar de bedden in kamer drie zijn net zo oud en doorgezakt .. heerlijke ik ontbijt en je kan er savonds ook lekker eten

Staff very welcoming. Room very spacious couldn't fault it. Food excellent. Lovely grounds and good location

Stayed here few times...LOVED It!!. sadly can't anymore as need ground floor room or lift as disabled and unable to climb that lovely staircase now!!

Nice place nice beer and fantastic chef

Amazing food and such an amazing setting!

If you want sharp lines and modern furniture then go to a premier Inn. If like me you prefer that slightly tatty jumper the wife wants you to get rid of but you feel comfortable in then this is the place to be. Those serving us could not have been nicer ( I assume they are the owners). The bar is not huge but still managed four hand pulled cask ales. The main galleried and pannelled room was lovely and you imagine sitting in front of the fire on a cold night. Hotel surrounded by trees but with easy access to the main road. Come for a couple of nights with the kids and let them run riot in the forest!😁

Really lovely people who care about everyone who visits. So accommodating with dietary requirements. Lovely view and nature watching from bedroom window. Very peaceful on balcony in sunshine with a good book. Fantastic location to get to places of interest and things to do.

Had a coffee here went in the morning so not people about.

Buena atención, acogedor, licores excelentes y la comida. Un poco antiguo para mi gusto, pero es típico Inglés. 👍👍

Step back in time, this is real old school dining and drinking but on a different level. I loved every minute ❤

Good food, good service, great surroundings.

Excellent Roast Lamb and Beef. Rst potatoes and fresh veggies well served. As good as a Home cooked if not better John....

Beautiful timely hotel with fabulous restaurant and wonderful staff. Just never change a thing please Tyrrells!

Beautiful hotel, lovely food and fantastic hosts

Stayed for a couple of days. Located in nice quiet rural area with lots of free parking. Decor a little 'tired' but place was exceptionally clean. Very good breakfast and evening meals and prices in bar were very reasonable. Staff were all extremely friendly and helpful. Will use again.

Very good Roasted Hazelnut Pavlova!

Always great. Always welcoming. Love the place.

Good choice of food and lovely surroundings

Place looks a bit tired but that adds to the atmosphere, it's well run. Food was very good we did have a bit of a miss app with one pudding but that was soon rectified. It's got charm and regulars enjoy it. So venture past the tired paint work and enter an old new world and enjoyment. Ps would be great for a murder mystery weekend. As long as I'm not the victim.

Great place with super friendly staff Did nit give it 5 star only because vegetarian options very limited

Incredibly welcoming traditional hotel in a lovely old period property. The food was excellent and great value for money which is very hard to come by at hotels . Rooms were quite dated but perfectly clean and comfortable. Will definitely be back

Friendly staff all ready to help and guide you though a good menu of food. Lovely place for a family reunion .Plenty of space for parking and a beautiful setting. Our food was fantastic ,good sized portions and well cooked. We really enjoyed our visit.

Have only been several times over the years for a meal and each time it was wonderful and good value. Went last Sunday for lunch and managed a desert, toffee cheesecake. Absolutely fabulous and mustn’t forget the roast potatoes with my beef. Rolled in herbs and finished in butter. Crisp and gorgeous. Give it all “A 10”

Nice place, nice people, nice food, would always choose tyrrells ford if going near Ringwood and around that area

Food great, lovely service nice relaxing time was had... we will be coming back.

Only one night but a lovely place. Clean food good and and great smiley staff!

Lovely hotel and staff fantastic surroundings. Only down side shower gets very hot sometimes so just keep testing.

An absolute dream too stay in this beautiful old country manor house will certainly b returning.

Really enjoyable stay. Good reasonably priced food, excellent breakfast with very friendly polite staff.

Very friendly staff and quick service. Lovely food.

Had lunch here today with a friend. First visit in many years. Our waitress was a credit to the place, the food was excellent quality and very flavorful. Ciders and ales were top quality. I would recommend Tyrrells Ford to anyone and everyone. All local produce, home cooked definitely not pub grub, their fayre is a cut above the rest. Main course around £12, desserts £6. Go on, treat yourself!

Very nice place to visit. Friendly staff & not overly expensive.

Just had a one night stay excellent value with breakfast included.

Friendly staff and owners however the place needs complete renovation. Breakfast quite poor. Wi-fi with very poor signal. Windows full of spider nets.

Very nice stay, room great, and lovely library area for quiet chess match, superb.

Friendly greeeting..nice bar for drinks with good selection of drinks and very nice well kept grounds. Well worth a visit.

Excellent friendly service. Very accommodating with dietary requests. I will be back.

Nice place for a night away and to have a drink with worldly charm

Lovely hotel, staff are very friendly and helpful. Food was lovely although a bit short on vegetarian options. I will definitely return. 😊

Lovely staff, friendly people, great to be around, beds are so comfy, food is great.

Very nice hotel a little bit out of the way plenty of parking, rooms really nice.

Lovely, proper old style hotel/pub. Enjoyed the beautiful garden and bar during a lunchtime visit. Lunch was unpretentious, very well cooked and presented and excellent value. So many places are without substance, produce food of dubious quality and trade purely on being impressive in appearance. Tyrrell's Ford isn't like that - it's a proper place to visit.

Excellent food and ale with brilliant service 👍🏼👍🏼

Excellent location wonderful hosts so friendly and breakfast suburb would definitely stay there again

We were there very recently and I had one of the best starters I have ever eaten

Large portions of good traditional pub food and well kept beers.

The hotel and staff were wonderful. I will definitely stay another time. Thank you all. x

Wonderful food and fantastic hospitality 🙌

I liked it very much. Lovely Sunday lunch great garden

Very spacious and quiet. Loads of free parking and excellent food! Conveniently situated between Ringwood, Bournemouth and Christchurch.

Warm welcome good food, thank you.

I did not stay as a guest so cannot comment on the rooms. However, the food was exceptional. I had Sunday lunch there and it was sublime, I expected it to be a bit pricey, it was not, indeed it was at a very reasonable price. I went back another day for an afternoon lunch and again was not disappointed. In fact I returned on another two nights for evening meals, each time the food was hot, plentiful and inexpensive. The hosts were a pleasure, I spent some time after my evening meal on the second occasion talking to the owner Mark and his charming wife (sorry forgot name) I enjoyed the well stocked bar and in particular the rum ( gun powder proof) in all well recommended.

Basic but no working bath/shower Food good, restaurant nice.

Lovely location Rooms nice with veranda to garden. bathroom dated in champagne colour. shower on bath tap had no cold water through showerhead so had to have a bath instead. Rooms very hot had to have the fan on all night

The hotel is a lovely old country retreat nestled in a large grounds a little way from the river Avon. The staff were amazingly accomodating and friendly. We had dinner in the hotel which served lovely and hearty favourites like pies and fish n chips. Unfortunately the rooms were really dated with a very old bed that dipped in the middle from age and the water pressure in the shower was almost non existent.

5 Stars rating. Arrived late without reservation. Despite this, Mark the owner, took us in and gave us 2 clean and quiet rooms. The old house is beautiful with plenty of character and charm. Highlight recommended. Try the Dickie's Dribble cider.....

Always a warm welcome with excellent food

Lovely pub, quiet day and nice relaxed drink in the garden. Good management of track and trace and I'd be keen to go back here for food 1 evening! Will update once been.

A nice eating experience in an old fashioned Country Inn. Food is standard fayre and they allow dogs.

Enjoyed our stay, food very good and staff helpful and friendly

Lovley garden and patio but inside is like going back in time to the 1980's with the decor.

Friendly staff, great breakfast with plenty of choice, room decent and hotel kept reassuringly clean in regards to covid precautions. Will stay again

Very comfortable hotel and good food

Fantastic Inn, lovely garden and steak cooked to perfection. Well recommended and would return.

Went to have dinner at the Alice lise but they were sold out of food. Driving down a long road we went to turn round in the car park but the pub was very inviting so we went on in and they severed us very quick with great food ( the best burger and chips I’ve tried) and Lovely service, with friendly kind people who enjoyed the pub and the people. Very happy with this and going back with my family! Thank you for an amazing dinner with some old friends catching up :)

A very enjoyable visit. Delicious food and great service.

Off the road, down the drive, car park to the side of the building. The front of the Inn faces a beautiful lawn over a large patio. The food we ate was lovely. Well presented, and tasty. Reasonably priced too.

We love this place, with its country house setting, beautiful grounds, serving a wide menu, where you can have anything from a sandwich to an excellent meal.

Lovely place, beautiful beer garden,nice to sit and relax with a drink or two in the sunshine
