Short stay between Christmas and New Year. This was a great location for exploring the new forest with lots of places to eat in Ringwood. Accommodation was very clean and well stocked with everything and lovely little touches. Host was so accommodating and very helpful. Will definitely be back and would recommend.
A lovely cottage in a great location, where all shops & restaurants are within walking distance.A modern cottage well equipped, with many nice touches, with the owner thinking of everything you could need, plus a parking space right outside.

Thank you for your kind review — we’re so pleased you enjoyed the location and accommodation. We appreciate your suggestion regarding a pullout bed. The property currently offers a king-size bed and a double bed, and while the layout doesn’t allow for additional bedding options at this time, we’ll certainly keep your feedback in mind as we continue to improve the space. Thank you again, and we’d love to welcome you back in the future!
We had a great stay, lillypad is a lovely new and clean cottage. Enough space and everything you need is available. Great location to discover the new Forest.
We chose Lilypad Cottage for a short break away between Christmas and New Year and we could not recommend it highly enough.
We found from the easy checking in until we left a real home from home experience and found everything we needed there and exceptionally clean, the added bonus was the location which is a short car ride to the beach and town and a short stroll from the cottage to Ringwood Market town.
The house is absolutely lovely, really clean and has everything you could want. It’s really close to the centre of Ringwood - a short walk. Anthea was very helpful and the welcome pack was such a nice touch. Highly recommended!

What a great little find. The property is really clean and well kept. The beds are so comfy. It is very well stocked, and it was lovely to meet the owner, who popped by to say hello.
What an excellent location. We will definitely be back. thank you
The property was beautifully presented, spotless, and thoughtfully decorated, creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere from the moment we arrived. The check-in process was smooth, and everything was exactly as described. The bedroom was cozy with fresh linens and soft towels, and the attention to detail in the décor made it feel extra special. Kitchen facilities were well-equipped, Wi-Fi was reliable, and overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay — I would happily recommend this property to others.
This property is in a fantastic location and absolutely perfect for local restaurants and bars. My friend and I loved staying here. The host was great at getting back to any questions I asked and the house was beautifully decorated too. Would highly recommend.
This is a small modern cottage located at the end of the marketplace in Ringwood. You can leave the car and walk into town and I even walked to catch my National Express coach back to the airport, it was that close! You are also within a very short distance of the Castleman Trail which is a popular walking and cycling route. So if you want to walk your dog or to go for a cycle ride you are extremely close. This is one of my dog's favorite walking spots! This is a clean, bright and safe spot to stay!
