Further info & directions

Additional details:
As you drive through the ancient New Forest, and up the long sweeping drive to the hotel, shadowed by Canadian redwood and copper beech trees and lined with rhododendrons, your anticipation builds.

Your breath will be taken away by this magnificent, country mansion surrounded by natural forest.

Rhinefield House is home to a number of hidden treasures. The Alhambra Room, originally built as a gentleman’s smoking room by the owner Mabel Walker-Munro as a birthday gift for her husband, is now an elaborate private dining room. Designed as an exact replica of the Alhambra Palace in Granada , it is elaborately embellished with onyx from Persia , magnificent copper and bronze, and hand-cut mosaic tiles.

Attention to detail also prevails in the restaurant where you will find the magnificent carving of the Armada set in the restaurant fireplace. This took nine years to complete and was carved out of one solid block of oak some 4ft thick. It provides the perfect backdrop to the masterpieces created by Chef and his team who delight in choosing only the finest ingredients to provide mouth-watering food complemented by a wide selection of fine wines.

Rhinefield House has recently been awarded four Red Star status - the AA inspectors' supreme accolade for the best performing hotels in Britain and Ireland.

Rhinefield House has recently added 16 new luxurious bedrooms opened August 2007.
