How do we rate a property?
We rate all our hotels, resorts, and lodges using our own bespoke grading system. We'll only invite a property into our collection once it's been assessed by one of our specialists. If it doesn't impress us, it doesn't make the cut.
From the quality of the food served in the restaurant to the amenities offered in each bedroom, we carefully rate each property to make sure it meets our high expectations.

About This Hotel
Lime Wood, a boutique country house, is set in the heart of the stunning New Forest National Park. It is laid-back luxury at its best – the perfect secluded hideaway.
A morning mist rises through the trees in New Forest; cows graze, and ponies wander about, occasionally flapping their tails. This is how most mornings begin at Lime Wood, set in New Forest Park, a short distance from Lyndhurst. The hotel's 13th-century architecture creates a warm character that is only bettered by the contemporary interior and exterior additions. Out from most of the 14 rooms and 15 suites, trees seem so close you feel you could reach out and touch them. Inside, log fires of wood-burning stoves crackle and pop well into the night. iPods and docks lay down the soundtrack to your room's events, which may include a soak in your freestanding tub.
The Herb House Spa, designed over three levels is dedicated to natural well-being and is inspired by its forest surroundings; it instills a sense of calm and serenity – the perfect chilling retreat.
Once you've sunk deep into a relaxed state of mind, you may be ready for a nosh. Chefs Angela Hartnett and Luke Holder do the cooking, pulling together both of their much-admired signature styles, to create Hartnett Holder & Co, the relaxed and stylish Italian restaurant.
