"It is a big operation to run a country house hotel and a restaurant. Lots of staff required: They are there. It costs a lot to do that and do you put it on the hotel bills or spread it over the restaurant too? I...don't know as I am not in the business, but lunch would have been £150 for two without drinks and service if we had had two puddings and 3 courses each (we only had the one pud). These days that is not too out of line with top pricing, but was this up to scratch at that level? I think at £35 for a main you have be prepared to take the criticism, especially when your distant cousin in London (and it is a cousin, not a sibling, on this showing) is charging only a little more and rides the waves robustly. Ms Hartnett is everywhere – on the menus in the foyer. She may need to come and eat some more sample meals then. Bread platter had one slice of some quite nice focaccia, too much not particularly outstanding olive oil and some butter bean puree, a slice of mortadella with a radish for dec. Not sure what the puree is doing in there. Just a bit underwhelming and not a great way to kick off. Firsts were crab tart (pastry too thick and dry, crab pretty much au naturel), and agnolotti. Now in serious pasta dishes it should be all about the pasta not the sauce; Ms H knows that. This had a delicious game sauce but the pasta was, I don't know, slightly overcooked perhaps? It was not the star it should have been. Mains were cod in broth and red mullet. I am sorry to say it, but had I been paying I would have sent that cod back. It was tough and the broth was tasteless with some cockles floating in it. Really not on. The mullet was well cooked but had a strange creamy sauce with it that was over-rich and drowned other things out. Those other things included crab and purple sprouting broccoli. PSB is a tricky dish to get right: it must not be overcooked and ideally to get its unique flavour it should be picked and cooked in a space of 15 minutes. So if you don't grow your own and have runners maybe do something else. This was overdone and may have had flavour but I could not tell as the sauce swamped it out. Needed more acidity – maybe lemon, white wine, something. The pistachio and polenta pud cake coped with the challenge of the dryness here with another creamy sauce (custard). I just think the saucing needs attention all round. This was not a heavy lunch and I may have chosen badly but I did feel quite over creamed by the end. The view and intimate ambience is very lovely and the wine list is also, especially as it has some good half bottles and a good glass selection. We drank well (a half with 2 additional glasses) with good recommendations. Total cost was £300 so 50/50 drinks and food really. Service was willing and efficient but maybe a little brusque at times. Overall it is halfway between good country house hotel cooking and Michelin worth-a-detour land, but definitely inclined more to the former than the latter. I'd suggest a set lunch option and have a good look at the saucing and combos guys. However there may be a useful exchange to be done with Murano over the halves on the wine list. The hotel looks great, passing through."

Wonderful lunch in relaxed surroundings, driven by the staff. From the bread, asparagus starter and halibut was out of this world.

We had a family spa day followed by a dinner for 6, Charlie placed us in the beautiful private dining room that was originally the main bar when this lovely hotel first opened. The entire experience was faultless, the service was amazing and the food...fabulous. We live locally and this is our favorite venue for special family gatherings. If you haven't been don't take my word for it, try it for yourselves.

beautiful sunny day, so for a ride in the new forest, followed by lunch in the limewood hotel. before the opening of the restaurant we were treated with fizz and nibbles while we waited. with the lunch my wife chose peter from florenz gin. the longest list of gins we have seen and I had a glass albillo a delicious white from madrid. we had the chicken milanese (a solid favorit) but the warm chocolatemase with orange jamalade ice was the highlight.

Service was a bit erratic on our last visit , good food but you need to understand how to mix the menu up. We eat here reasonably regularly as we are local but you can mix options not only in price but also extend choice...by looking at the small dishes menu. It’s a great way to add pasta dishes and also give the ability to share and vary . It is time the menu had an overhaul or freshen up though. But I adore the beautiful room and there is not a bad table in the restaurant. Speisekarte ansehen

drinking was great at the arrival. sitting on the bar was also nice. we went to a Wobbly table where we ordered the food and drink more. wrong drink came and was changed after a few minutes. that was eating old. we are very salty and then the...mains (we had steak sharing) was very hard and rissly. we told the waiter that and everything was mentioned that he would hand it over to the chef. we are not coming back in a hurry. I would class it as glorified pub food with a beautiful bar and sitting area (bar wobbly table).

We had long wanted to visit Lime Wood, with one of the attractions being the restaurant as Angela Hartnett had put her name to it. We have long been great fans of her London restaurants. This didn't come close! The food was OK as far...as it went but felt a little safe, we expected to be wowed and just weren't. Sides were very disappointing and far too little, we had the steak one night and were given one small chips between the two of us. There was only vegetable option each night and it was the same -cabbage! Only one pudding was changed over the two nights. It maybe we were suffering from the continued issues of COVID, with a restricted menu, but this was far from what we expected. This c...

beautiful location, sat on the terrace with views of the sunny garden. service was also excellent. we have a lighter eating happy to lunch, as we also eat in the evening. we first only got the main restaurant menu (that's what we saw happened. all other tables too). but we asked ourselves about the small dish menus that were quickly brought to us and eaten from them. really good value and very tasty. we started with the arancini that were exceptional. some beautiful focaccia and ham while we waited for our appetizers along with a few alcohol-free cocktails. we shared some delicious smoked salmon and cured meat and then I had an amazing gnocchi with tomato, mozzarella and basilikum (the best...

the feeling that they get when they get away to their favorite holiday destination, the first warm of the sun on their face and their shoulders relax a few customs is how I feel when I go through the front door in lime wood . that is something I have often done and have done for many years. it is my home from home and there is a warm welcome every time. the personal is remarkable, they make them feel so incredibly special, they are friendly, natural and genuine. I love the atmosphere in the beautiful bar area, I think it is my native and I visit with many of my friends and family who also enjoy the experience. eating is always amazing and the desserts are from this world. I was recently over...

We were interested to see what our experience would be like based on the mixed reviews and overall, it was a very good Saturday night dinner. We were shown to our table by a lovely member of staff and throughout our entire dining experience the...staff were really attentive and very friendly. As my Husband and I are both really passionate about wine (Have some professional qualifications in it) it was really great to see some rare unusual wines and grapes on the wine list we always get excited when we find something we've not tried before so that really added to the enjoyment. Our food was on the whole, very pleasant. The starter of the crab tart was a particularly well created and executed...
