October 2021

Excellent day out and reasonably priced entrance fee.

October 2022

Good selection of healthy plants for sale.

July 2018

as guests of Apple court house the gardens were available for us to browse- however, one day we found out someone had opened the gats and entered the gardens for themselves arguing that they had driven from Devon. Wrong time of year to get the advantage of the beauty but could visualise the attraction

March 2019

We were disappointed that it is no longer open.

June 2023

Friendly and welcoming ... to dog as well as me! Indoor and outdoor environment provided relaxation while enjoying tasty meals. By using a footpath and the edge of the Forest from my holiday accommodation in Bashley I appreciated being able to walk there... complete with pony and foal views!

July 2019

The food here was tasty, plentiful and well priced. We ate here several times over the course of our stay. The staff were friendly and there was a good atmosphere about the place.

May 2023

Great place, good excellent and staff lovely

April 2019

A lovely place to have breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. Cakes are delicious. Individual Lemon meringue cakes the biggest I've seen! Staff very welcoming and dogs allowed. There is currently scaffolding around the building which obviously spoils the look of the place but this is only temporary so don't let it put you off.

October 2019

Perfect stop for a cream tea when out cycling. Lovely place

August 2020

Great cafe with very nice cheese scones and breakfast options.

December 2020

Excellent food & patient staff.

June 2021

lovely cycling stop for youngsters

September 2021

Lovely walk from Burley before enjoying food and drink. Lots of outside seating which suited us as we have dogs. Food and service were first class

May 2022

Lovely tea rooms on our walk, they suggest booking in advance but was able to walk in off of our walk, sat outside, nice sandwiches & good cup of tea. Hot food also served, good service would call again

August 2023

Excellent to see a bit of the old railway still in evidence and put to such good and popular use. Even in early March the tea rooms were packed, but service still good. Would highly recommend a visit.

March 2024

We had dinner here twice and it was great. Dog and child friendly.

September 2017

Didn't use as it didn't do food

September 2018

We only popped in once - We fancied a cocktail as it was really hot and thought it would be fun to have something different, Mine came out warm with no ice and was tiny. We couldn't sit on tables outside unless booked but the entire time we sat indoors with no air-con, table were free outside.

June 2021

Lovely pub, very dog friendly. The menu is a little limited but the food we had was very good.

March 2022

Good restaurant with excellent menu. They also welcome dogs

July 2022

Lovely friendly pub. There were six of us who went for a Sunday Roast. Really delicious food and the puddings were amazing too. Would recommend this pub without hesitation. Service was excellent and staff friendly and attentive.

August 2023

Visited for a family meal. We asked to move to a quiet table as part of the restaurant was close to the bar area and noisy. Excellent home cooked food, brilliant service and good value for money.

November 2023

Sunday lunch menu is very limited. Good food in lovely surroundings.

September 2019

Super walk, nice and easy and great place for a meal or tea and cake by the car park.

April 2019

A pleasant walk along the cliff top and along the beach. There was less cliff than last time we went to the New Forest.

June 2023

Lovely clean sandy beach and a really i would highly recommend this spot for your car to break down takes the ouch out of waiting for the recovery truck

April 2017

Lovely

April 2019

Very picturesque beach with great access, looks good for a beach day

October 2021

Lovely village, plenty of shops and places to eat - no post office though.

June 2017

Fantastic sea location with goods pubs, shops etc

November 2017

Great for a dog walk along the spit to Hurst Castle. Needles Eye cafe is a welcome break, quite good food but very busy and a bit basic.

December 2017

great walking area, small cafe-the needles, children climbing play park- crashing waves over stoned beach

March 2019

Love Milford on Sea so old fashioned hasn't changed much since I use go as a child in the 1960/70s

April 2019

Due to my husband breaking his leg we hired a mobility scooter for our holiday. It was a joy to ride along the front at Milford. Wonderful views of The Needles and lots of benches along the way too. Great access from the car parks. Would be great if the short path from Milford to Keyhaven could be the same good surface. We felt the rough stones would be too hard to ride on.

June 2019

Lovely village with adequate shops on a very pretty green.

September 2019

Good place to go if you have a buggy or wheelchair as there is a tarmac path along the top of the cliffs with great views of the Needles, plenty of parking and a kiosk serving refreshments.

September 2020

One of my favourite places

July 2021

A proper gem. Great location for the new forest. The village is great and was only a short walk from our house. Not too busy or full of holiday makers. We will be back.

October 2021

Beautiful beach with views to The Isle of Wight. Good for swimming, picnics and walking. Very good car parking and public toilets. Lots of good places to eat and drink either next to the beach or in the village, a short walk away

July 2022

Brilliant beach.

September 2022

Lovely quiet location for a beach walk. Great for watching the sea and waves without the crowds.

June 2023

Milford on Sea is a very quintessential English village which has retained all its charm. The seafront is a delight to stroll along and The Needles Eye Cafe produces lovely coffee and lunches which is well worth a visit. A walk around Sturt Pond is also enjoyable and through to the village.

June 2023

A lovely place to stay. So much to see and do locally and within easy reach.

August 2023

Lovely sea walk within 15 minutes of the cottage.

March 2024

Beautiful beach, lots of sand for youngsters- definitely been high on our favourites list, for more than 30 years and still is now the 'children' are nearly 30! - well worth the drive from New Forest. The Noisy Lobster is great and now has an 'outdoor upstairs' too. The Beach Cafe, half-way along, is excellent too- used to do very good carrot cake! The connecting beach towards Steamer Point is dog-friendly all year which is a bonus. Walking to the quay end, you can catch the ferry to Hengistbury Head which is beautiful beach too and often quieter (top favourite!) Even this last week (JULY 2021) the 'kids' wanted to crab-fish from Mudeford Quay!!

August 2021

Nice beach with good facilities
