Careys Manor Hotel & SenSpa

My partner and I had a lovely time visiting Careys Manor Hotel for our anniversary celebrations. The grounds are absolutely beautiful and all the staff that we encountered were incredibly nice and helpful. Our room was spacious, clean and felt modern with a classic twist to it. The only fault was that in the bathroom, which we assume was a wet room, when the shower was on the floor did get incredibly wet and didn't feel like it began to drain until the shower stopped. We were able to enjoy the spa facilities, which are open 7am - 9pm. There are optional extras to pay for but the spa included the standard pool, jacuzzi, sauna and steam room with an oriental design which we enjoyed a lot. We had a time for two massage the following day which was incredibly relaxing and couldn't fault either of the ladies who delivered the massages, thank you both very much! We had breakfast in the morning, in which we were asked to book a time which was no issue for us. The restaurant this was served in was light and clean and we enjoyed the wooden theme throughout. There was a lot on offer, including pastries, cereal, yogurt, fruit, toast and cooked breakfast in a buffet style, and you could also order specific items from their menu to be made for you. The longue area was lovely and we enjoyed a game of chess in their after our breakfast. Unfortunately the Thai restaurant was fully booked for dinner and so we were unable to attend but it smelt delicious! The stay was on the more costly side but for a special occasion we think it was worth it and would recommend.

Beautiful hotel in the middle of the New Forest. Staff on arrival were lovely! Rooms were comfortable and had a small balcony. We couldn't get a table in the main restaurant or the Thai or French one (6pm or 9.30pm) so had to eat out on our first night. Visited the Thai on the second night and it was great, really good food and service. Swimming pool was good but busy, but don't wear hotel slippers on the poolside (as they do advise), I slipped quite badly but it was my fault for wearing them! Staff at all times were lovely, very pleasant stay!

We recently celebrated our wedding a Careys Manor, we spend a lot of time here because in our opinion the spa is the best, Cambium restaurant is phenomenal, the rooms are cozy and the service is always impeccable. So when my Husband proposed I the lounge, it seemed only fitting to get married here too.
From the first meeting with Francoise we felt completely at ease, she is incredibly profession and clearly has a wealth of experience. She advised us but also let us run free with ideas we had, nothing and I mean nothing was too much trouble.
We had the complete celebration package, which includes a fantastic amount, and all things that reduced stress as they were included. Table decorations, chair covers, evening DJ and so much more.
The food choices were brilliant, and our guests loved being able to choose.
On the day we were so well looked after, the team could not have done more for us, especially our Master of Ceremonies Janos. The team ensured we were having the best possible day, checking if we needed anything and making time for us to step away if we needed.
The quality of the food was amazing for both the breakfast and evening buffet.
We cannot thank Francoise and her team enough, the day was perfect, and everyone had an incredible time.

Set in lovely grounds. Very helpful and welcoming staff. Even the cleaning staff are polite and friendly. It was my partner's birthday, during the stay, the manager left a greeting card and balloon in room. A nice touch. Breakfast is extra and could be included in price of room. It was tasty, using locally sourced produce. The bed is very comfortable. Room was clean. Air con was a bit of hit and miss. Can't really complain about it, as I didn't say anything about it to reception.

Couldn't fault anything, In the heart of the New Forest. The reception lady was lovely, helpful and informative. The Spa facilities were great. The room was very clean with a lovely new bathroom and power shower. Surrounded by beautiful gardens and the two on site Thai and French Restaurants were absolutely fabulous. All in all an amazing place to stay.

We arrived to a warm reception, with even the manager (I assume) stopping us to congratulate us. The venue, staff and room were fantastic. We had dinner and breakfast, and both were amazing. We managed to pop to the spa the next morning, and it was quiet and pleasant, and completed our stay brilliantly (wish we had had time to have a treatment, as they looked great).

Our room was lovely and we were upgraded due to celebrating a special occasion.

Unfortunately, reception staff were consistently unavailable (over 10 minutes of ringing on more than one occasion), which was particularly disappointing as we needed to address some major issues such as bugs in our food or incorrect/incomplete room service orders.

Spa facilities are comprehensive and very well maintained. Shame to have to pay £40 per person on top of a £400+ a night room rate for 2 hours but this does limit the capacity which is good.

All-in-all our stay was pleasant but sadly not pleasant enough to warrant the price-tag.

Just wanted to say a massive thank you again to all the Carey’s manor staff especially Hannah and Daniel for looking after us and ensuring they went above and beyond for our family christening event. The afternoon tea buffet was fantastic and the room with garden access was ideal for all ages! We will definitely be coming back with any future events. Thank you so much!
