The Dairy - Ringwood

The Dairy is a stylishly converted farm building for two. It is one of five refurbished and transformed buildings on a working farm close to the New Forest. The semi-detached cottage consists of a spacious open plan kitchen, sitting and dining room. There is a spacious and charming double bedroom and a separate shower room. The front door leads onto a delightful shared courtyard for outdoor dining and relaxing. The high ceilings with original oak beams and a wood burning stove add to the character of this property. Upper Kingston is just two miles from the centre of Ringwood, an historic Market town located on the River Avon and on the edge of the New Forest National Park. It is an ideal touring base for visiting the south coast of England and surrounding area. It is well placed on the Avon Valley path, a 34 mile walk from the Cathedral city of Salisbury, to Christchurch Priory on the south coast. Ringwood has long been associated with beer making and Ringwood Brewery, just a mile away offers brewery tours. For an action packed holiday then Ringwood has plenty to offer.
