You can be certain of a warm and friendly New Forest welcome to a venue where customers come back again and again.
As part of Minstead Trust, we provide training in hospitality and catering for people with learning disabilities, who also tend the Victorian walled vegetable garden to provide fresh seasonal vegetables for the kitchen.
This is a country house venue with a fascinating past and an inspirational present.
We are lucky to be nestled in the heart of the New Forest where there are free roaming animals so please drive carefully and pass around them slow and wide, for more information please see the New Forest Code.
We are currently taking bookings for outdoor weddings and celebrations. We can’t wait to welcome you.

Minstead lodge really is a hidden treasure within the New Forest. I fell in love with it the moment I saw it.
Minstead Lodge is a beautiful venue - only a short hop from major routes but you instantly feel as though you are in the peaceful heart of the New Forest.
The team at the Lodge created such a special, memorable day at such a difficult time. I really can not recommend this venue highly enough... we will be back.
