I've just returned from a stay in the Ormonde House Hotel and wanted to immediately recommend it to others. If you are looking for a clean, super friendly 'home from home' hotel, a minute or so from the Forest, but still within a 5 minute walk from Lyndhurst town this is the place for you. My party and I (4 adults) got the impression that nothing would be too much trouble for the the owner and his team, and can't wait to return in a few months time. We didn't have an evening meal due to previously arranged engagements, but can confirm the hot breakfast, including the vegetarian option, was excellent. The sizable bar also provides a refreshing place to relax after a walk in the Forest. Great stuff!
