We received a very warm welcome. The room is very comfortable and the continental breakfast was excellent. We have stayed here before and we shall return.

Tips:

The B & B is about a mile or so from the centre of Lymington, an easy walking distance. Some nice local individual shops. The King's Head pub at the bottom of the hill will provide a very good meal. At nearby Keyhaven there is a nice walk on the raised shingle to Hurst Castle. Lyndhurst, Beaulieu and Exbury are a short drive away.

Friendly and discreet presence of staff. Delicious breakfast of fresh food and generous helpings! They're right about the beds; they are incredibly comfortable and have crisp cotton linen. I was recommended Rudder's from a good friend. I would do the same.

Such a clean and comfortable place to stay. David was a very welcoming and considerate host providing us with ice cold water to combat the heat and fresh milk for our hot drinks when we arrived and throughout our stay. The breakfast hamper was exceptional filled with very high quality treats which set us up for the whole day. The location was ideal for us as we were visiting the Sea Food Festival in Lymington.

Tips:

We enjoyed a lovely meal at the Fisherman’s Rest which was within walking distance from Rudder’s. Milford on Sea was a great place to enjoy a dip in the sea and was only about 2-3 miles from the B&B

Warm welcoming place to stay where host David couldn’t do enough to make us feel comfortable. Breakfast was not your dull average but a wonderful treat every morning. Room was clean and quiet with convenient parking in a really good location for New Forest and coast. Definitely recommend this place to stay.

Tips:

Ashurst Zoo for adults and children. Rhinefield arboretum near Brockenhurst. Beaulieu village. Lymington harbour and Yacht Club (best to pre-book for dinner). Further afield Brownsea island, Poole, Bournemouth for promenade walk and views and excellent Blanc restaurant in Marriet Hotel.

Lovely clean accommodation, nice compact en suite. Our room had a lovely sitting out area. Breakfasts were superb, lovely ham and local cheese, along with jams, fruit and yoghurts. Served with warm baguettes, croissant or pain au chocolate, sets you up for the day!

Tips:

Really local for anything in Lymington, Isle of Wight ferry, and Beaulieu. We had a nice meal in The White Hart, just up the road, and The Fisherman’s rest is great, a 15 minute walk or 5 minutes drive.

Amazing place with really friendly hosts. Great options for rooms for a nice weekend getaway in New Forest. We visited for my boyfriend's birthday and he loved the fresh and local food we were given for breakfast and hospitality from the hosts. They were kind enough to give us some extra from the breakfast before we left for our drive home!

Tips:

The hosts provide recommendations and information about local restaurants and places to visit. Amazing seafood options with it being located close to the coast. Great place to get away from the city and spend some time in nature. Lovely place to go for long walks etc. (no uber so try calling Lymington taxis if you need a ride home as we had a good experience with them)

We took the lovely room with private patio which is to the rear of our host’s home and very quiet. Our only criticism would be that whilst we are considered ‘slim’ people the shower room was a little on the small side. This would not however deter us from revisiting as the location of Rudders is perfect as is the availability of excellent parking. The bed as advertised was of a superior quality and especially comfortable. The continental hamper breakfast provided was more than adequate and of a high standard .

Thankyou so much for a comfortable stay. If you are looking for a lovely B&B in the heart of Lymington this is for you. Perfectly placed for exploring the coastline of the New Forest and beyond. David was so accommodating, friendly and helpful. Fresh breakfast delivered every morning at a time to suit you. The bed is extremely comfortable with blankets supplied. Heater supplied in the room for chillier months. Lovely sliding doors onto a small patio area, which would be lovely in the summer months. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a B&B, would love to return.

The White Hart in Lymington and Smugglers Inn in Milford offer great value for money and delicious food.

Superb quality of the room fittings. High quality of bedding and towels. The host supplied great service and the breakfasts were varied and excellent. He was available if required but we more than welcomed a completely relaxed stay with free use of the facilities, the private garden/patio, and having our own front door, We were more than satisfied. Thank you.

Tips:

3 minute walk to 3 take away restaurants ,Thai, Indian, etc. Also general store for papers/groceries. 10 minute walk to pub, pleasant surroundings and serving reasonable meals/ book if possible currently. Lymington High Street will please the ladies with plenty of varied shops. Can cater for yourselves good Waitrose/marks and Spencer, use their car parks within reason. Visit marina, Milford and explore New Forrest and surrounding villages when not walking .

Everything really was 5* from the private, convenient and quiet location, perfect for a lazy evening and a good nights sleep to the varied breakfast hampers. Thought has been given to everything, wonderful bed linen, fresh coffee and a kettle for anytime drinks and wine glasses (and a shop two minutes walk away) for an evening tipple. This isn’t just any B&B, it’s .... & .... B&B.

Tips:

Book the garden room if you like breakfast or to relax al fresco. The pub’s 5 minutes walk and the town’s just a bit further. Lots of places to eat in Lymington but drive or walk out to The Haven at the boatyard if you want a want a view and good food. Walk out to Hurst Castle but wear sensible shoes. Play the best crazy golf at Lymington Golf Centre

Tips:

Only 2 minutes walk to very good local takeaways. We tried the Chinese and fish and chips both were great. We took a leisurely walk into Lymington which took 20 minutes to the town centre. Where there are plenty of shops and boutiques, pubs, restaurants, and harbour. Rudder’s is in a central location within an easy drive of the New Forest or the coast.

There is a great place called 'the cellar bar' down near the harbour, and a really good coffee place on the main harbour called Coffee & Drift - highly recommend if you love coffee! It's about a 20 minute easy walk from the town centre, the harbour is a little further along, but easily walkable.

We have stayed with Rudders before and we like the location just outside Lymington Town Centre, which is within walking distance, the cleanliness and modern atmosphere of the spacious rooms. The continental breakfasts are incredible using local produce as far as possible. We like the fact that breakfast hampers are provided and left outside the door for us to pick up. An excellent place to spend a weekend away!

Tips:

Lymington is a lovely place to visit. There is a market on Saturdays which is great to explore. There are plenty of small cafes and restaurants, all COVID secure. Lovely walks by the quay and with a visit to the Information Centre you can pick up a map which details 3 different walks of the town. There is the open top bus as well which runs until early September. A fab place to visit!

We stayed here for 4 nights and we were so happy we found it. Lovely size room and we had the room with our own patio. So it was a lovely bright room. The breakfast hamper everyday was delicious (filled with lots of lovely goods). The location was great and an easy walk from the main high street. Spotlessly clean and nice and quiet. Perfect place to stay and can’t recommend it enough.

Tips:

Hire bikes and ride through the New Forest. Walk along the marina. Watch the sunset over Milford on Sea.

Christophe was very helpful and welcoming, from my booking via telephone, to greeting us as we arrived and also on departure. We booked all three rooms for our family. We loved the breakfast baskets. The contents were well thought out, well presented and above all, delicious. The fact that we could eat in our rooms rather than have to go into a dining room suited us very well! The rooms were clean and comfortable and were all we could wish for.

Tips:

We visited The Monkey House on Rudder's recommendation list and it was excellent. A real gastro pub. The food was great! We spent an afternoon canoeing with New Forest Activities and would highly recommend them too.

Our second stay at Rudder's, and longer this time, for six nights. The accommodation and breakfast is of an exceptionally high standard and we cannot fault any aspect for our stay. We stayed once more in the patio room which provides a small outside sitting area for breakfast or evening drink. We especially enjoy the high quality breakfast, delivered each morning to your door. Thank you once again, Christophe - we certainly intend staying again.

Tips:

We always walk when on holiday and there are plenty of pleasant coastal and beach walks in the vicinity and a little further afield. We also discovered Beaulieu and the New Forest area between Lymington and Beaulieu this time - only 5-6 miles from the accommodation. We were avoiding pubs and restaurants - COVID-19!

The breakfast was probably the best bit with lovely warm fresh and local ingredients. If you want somewhere to stay in the area this would be a great place.

This time it, obviously is at least 4 years old but the upkeep has been really good. Everything was spotlessly clean and in excellent repair. If in the area again we will definitely try booking once more.

Warm welcome, thanks. Location very quiet despite main road address. We were in room with patio. Even if you don’t sit out much it is totally enclosed and makes the room very private. Room+en-suite spotlessly clean, and nice having room made up each day while we were out. Breakfast basket had variety and was plenty for a nice continental style meal. Bed very comfy. We arrived very tired and left very rested! Could well be tempted to come again sometime!

Tips:

Plenty to do in a lovely area. We enjoyed boat to Hurst Castle+walk back along Solent way. Also bike hire plus ride from Brockenhurst Station. Also day trip as foot passengers to Isle if Wight + coast walk+ lunch at old rail station at Yarmouth+ up river on old rail track now cycleway. Rhinefield House was a lovely place to have afternoon tea and enjoy the grounds on our wedding anniversary. Lots of walk possibilities along the Ornamental Drive.

The location is excellent, well sign-posted and easy to find, even in the dark. The room was large, spotlessly clean and very well equipped. The bed was large and comfy and the pillows very nice and plump. The breakfast hamper and coffee was a real treat, with more food than we could manage. We would highly recommend Rudders and will very likely stay with them again.

Tips:

Milford-on-Sea is nearby and provides lovely cliff top walks and stunning views of the IOW, Isle of Purbeck etc. Lymington is a nice small town which is just about within walking distance of Rudders and has plenty of cafes and restaurants. This is a great base to explore the New Forest or for a relaxing weekend.

We loved the smell of freshly baked bread and croissants and the quality of the provisions. Locally sourced cheese and ham and the smoked salmon and cream cheese was particularly enjoyable. Thank you. Perfect location for our needs and just a short walk into Lymington.

Tips:

Saturday CHarter Market. Quay. We drove to Exbury Gardens and Beaulieu only a short drive away. Also thought Hurst Castle worth a visit but you either need to walk spit or easier option is to get the ferry. Coastal walks around Barton on sea and Milford on sea all very enjoyable. Lots to do in this area.

This is a super place to stay for a few days whilst enjoying the lovely New Forest and coastal region. Very comfortable room and bed and a tasty breakfast hamper each morning. What a good idea that is! Very easy parking. Although on a main road the property is set well back so we did not hear traffic at all. Come and go as you please during your stay. Really cannot fault this establishment. We had a lovely time here.

Tips:

A short stroll from the local shopping parade. Some 'Take-aways' and places to get a meal and lots of Pubs. We chose to bring our bikes and cycled into the Forest via Sway. Just a shortish ride on quiet roads to get tnto the Forest which is a delightful place. We equally enjoyed the nearby coastal rides. A stroll into Lymington is easy and the town is attractive. Head for the Quay.

Great room, great host and great location. Extremely clean and comfortable room. The owners have put a lot of thought into the room and really thought about what you actually need when away. There are no unnecessary ornaments taking up space, so all the space is yours. Bed was very comfortable, slept very well. The room was quiet. As regards the location, there is a small co-op, a couple of Chinese takeaways and a couple of other places at less than 1 minute walk away. Lymington is easy to get to by car. The breakfast tray was a nice touch and again well thought out. Whenever I go away I normally come across a problem with where I'm staying, albeit a minor one, but I can't think of anything negative to say. I highly recommend staying here.

Warm friendly welcome. Room was immaculate and very nice. Very comfortable bed and wonderful ensuite. Absolutely loved the breakfast tray delivered to the door (at requested time) each morning. A great relaxing start to the day. WELL DONE.

Tips:

The Rudders is about a 10-15 walk into Lymington if you don’t want to take the car. We did this and was able to have a drink, but after walking all around the charming town and quay/marina area we got a taxi back for £5 which is nothing. Obviously, Beaulieu motor museum is only 5 miles away and is great day out, not just for ‘petrol heads’, the Palace house, Abbey ruins and grounds are wonderful to walk around. We had to go back the next day to finish off, which is included on entrance ticket.

Lymington town centre is a short way away, with lots of shops and a lovely harbour. Lovely meal at Fisherman’s Rest pub, which is within walking distance.

Easy to find - good spacious parking area Central location to Lymington so can leave car and easily walk into town Rooms are private - Room 3 on its own with own front door. Clean, extremely comfortable and well designed. Hamper breakfast a great idea - appreciated the early 7.30 delivery so we could get out early to make most of our day. Easy to book on-line, warm welcome on arrival, easy payment on leaving. Good all round stay.

Tips:

easy walk into Lymington Good Saturday street market Can recommend following: Solent Way Walk to Keyhaven Beaulieu House/Motor Museum for wet days New Forest easy access Ship Inn; Kings Head for good pub food - both have vegetarian menus.

Excellent high quality accommodation. We stayed in the room with its own patio. Lots of privacy, but owners on hand should we have needec them. We loved the breakfast basket.

Tips:

Lovely walk through nature reserve to Hurst Castle. We left the car on the driveway for the two nights we were there as the centre of Lymington is only a relatively short walk. Bases run right in front of the house, so able to walk and catch buses back.

No complaints, perfect for guests who want to be left alone (some B&B guests enjoy chatting to their hosts over breakfast, some don't - this stay is for people who don't particularly enjoy that element!) Loved the breakfast hamper, was a real treat for it to be waiting outside the door smelling delicious! Our only comment was that if someone was staying there for a number of nights, the hamper might get a bit "samey" - it's great for one or two nights but any more than that and another option would probably be appreciated. Everything was delicious though and the local cheese was great.

Tips:

Perfect for exploring the area - we went to Milford on Sea and Bournemouth during our stay. Not in Lymington town centre, about a 15 minute walk into town, but we like walking so this was a plus for us.

We stayed in the spacious patio room which would be particularly pleasant in the warmer, brighter seasons. It’s quiet, well thought out and set up for a comfortable stay. Wonderful breakfast hampers make a delicious start to the day. Prompt and cordial communications in the run-up to our stay, and a warm welcome on arrival; Christophe is a helpful and informative host. All in all, a perfect weekend away.

Tips:

The Saturday market brings Lymington to life. A great base and a good starting point for exploring along the coast and inland around the New Forest. Inviting coastal walks from Milford, and wonderful meals to be had at The Fisherman’s Rest and Rivaaz, Lymington, and a fine Sunday lunch at The Oak Inn, Bank, near Lyndhurst. A visit to St Thomas’ Lymington and St Matthew and All Saints Lyndhurst highly recommended; each very interesting.

The room was clean, and nice, and the beds are big and very comfortable. It was very nice of the owner to offer us his own baby outdoor crib for our baby. It's great to receive a breakfast basket to the room, exactly on the time we asked. The bread and croissants were hot and orange juice was fresh. Food was great. I defiantly recommend this B&B

This was the second time I've stayed at Rudders,& again I was not disappointed!! The owners are lovely, very hospitable, the room is by far one of the best I've stayed in & is well worth every penny!! The breakfast which is provided is brought to your room promptly at the time you have asked for, everything you get in your hamper is fresh & hot with 'more than enough' to 'keep you going' through the day. Will certainly be booking another stay with them!

Tips:

Rudders isn't far from the main town where there are places to eat & drink. There isn't too much of a drive either for things to see & do depending on what your interests are.

Breakfast is a hamper in the room delivered at an agreed time. Good selection of warm croissants, warm baguettes, cheeses, meats, fruit and yoghurts. Only downside is that the accommodation is on a busy main road. We didn't find that a problem - it isn't a tranquil spot but it is a good base to explore the area.

Accommodation was very comfortable and exceptionally clean. Beds fantastic, room comfortable and with everything we needed for our short stay. It was lovely to have a breakfast hamper delivered and have a little table by the window to sit and enjoy a leisurely breakfast. Bedding and towels also lovely. Slept really well and room was surprisingly quiet despite it being set back off quite a busy main road. Thanks Christophe!

The b and b is in a good location for getting around by car. Several beaches close by, and Beaulieu only 10 to 15 mins by car. Also you could walk to lymington in half an hour or so. The Ship Inn, lymington had good food.

The accommodation at Rudder's of Lymington, is new, with a modern ensuite, comfortable bedding, in pleasant surroundings. The breakfast delivered to your room is plentiful and a good range of tea and coffee is available.

Tips:

Rudder's of Lymington is within walking distance of the high street, where you would find everything you need. The old town by the river is a step back in time, and a great place to relax and watch the many yachts. Plenty of good quality pubs serving great food, close to the New Forest and lovely villages.

Christophe and Zoe were very welcoming and friendly to this lovely, contemporary b&b. The breakfast hamper is wonderful with warm croissants and baguette and local tasty cheese and quality ham. The Illy coffee and cafetière were very welcome. A short walk into lymington with local shops closely. Highly recommend.

Tips:

Walk along the coast/salt marshes from Lymington to Milford on Sea - amazing for fresh sea air and a huge amount of bird life. The Hidden Sanctury for an excellent massage in a treatment room that makes you feel as though you're in a far flung exotic location. Treat yourself to a fresh produce lunch at The Pig in Brockenhurst - make sure you book

As you know I booked the stay for my son and daughter in law and they had a wonderful stay - in fact they want to book again (when I am free to babysit!). In the meantime I will be contacting you to book for my husband and myself to have a short break. They thought the breakfast hamper was an excellent idea, and the room was lovely. Only one tiny negative - it would be good to have access from 3pm instead of 4pm. Thank you for making their stay so memorable.

Tips:

So much to do locally. You could spend two weeks at this location and still run out of time! The cliff top walk to Barton is a must as is a visit to Milford and of course Lymington particularly on a Saturday when they have a 'real' market.

We stayed in room 1 which was fantastic, very roomy, clean and stylish. We really enjoyed the continental style breakfast served in the room. Would recommend Rudder's to friends and family.

Tips:

We ate at the Blue Pig and Anchor... and the Walhampton Arms, which was across the river from Lymington. Both good food.

Lovely B&B - exceeded our expectations! The private garden room was quiet and peaceful. Love the comfy beds. And the breakfast basket included everything we love...more than enough food for us to make a small picnic lunch!

The room and facilities were of a very high standard. The bed was huge and very comfortable. The breakfast hamper left at the door was a great idea, with baguettes, croissants etc, a nice change to the usual 'full English'. Would highly recommend this to anyone wanting to stay in the area.

Tips:

There are plenty of interesting places to see, we visited several including Christchurch and Hythe. Lymington town centre offered plenty of shops and restaurants. We arrived on Monday and found a lot of the restaurants closed for the day so we decided on Wetherspoons, The Six Bells, for lunch. The food was ok and reasonably priced. We also tried the highly awarded Indian restauarant Rivaaz, we thought the food less than average and quite expensive. Our last night we tried Lymington Fish Bar, great value and great food. It was very clean, service was great and highly recommended for a quick, cheap meal.

Very friendly welcome upon arrival and wonderful breakfast hamper delivered each morning at your chosen time. Room 3 was spacious and modern. Had a relaxing time.

Tips:

We visited Stanwells restaurant and tried their grill restaurant which we thoroughly enjoyed. Service was exceptional and the food locally sourced. The steaks were delicious. This was in Lymington. There is so much to do in the New Forest and too many things to suggest. A lovely nature walk to Keyhaven is recommended. You can pick up the route nearby

Really nice friendly welcome, very nicely decorated room with private courtyard garden, and the hamper breakfast in our room was spot on for us, a much nicer option than a fried breakfast in a communal dining room. The only downside was that it took a little longer than expected to walk into Lymington, but that helped walk off our dinner in the evening! We would definitely come back if we are staying in Lymington again.

Tips:

We ate at the Ship on the Quay. 25 mins to stroll down. Good menu, and nice to eat looking out over the harbour. The saturday market os always good to stroll around.
