We had a wonderful stay. We particularly loved watching the sunrise every morning from the windows upstairs. Very clean and well stocked with everything we could need to make our stay comfortable. We loved the little touches that made RTV feel homely, but not cluttered.

We cannot recommend River Test View highly enough. Absolutely everything was perfect. We thought the decor, layout and wonderful private setting was stunning. The view is out of this world. We slept so well in the extremely comfortable bed. The Hampshire countryside at this time of the year was totally beautiful. We spent hours watching the wildlife around the river, with Red Kites circling above (binoculars were great)We enjoyed EVERY second of our stay.Thank you **

The views from the bedroom are just wonderful especially if youre able to catch the sunrise in the morning. The view of the stars in the evening is impeccable too. This place has everything for a cozy stay away and we will be back Definitely will be recommended to friends and family
