We really enjoyed our stay at the Durmast House apartment. Philip, the host was really friendly and attentive and he ensured that we had everything we needed. The property has everything you require and was comfortable, clean and cosy. It was lovely waking up each day to the wonderful gardens view. Location wise it is central to many places of interest, and is right in the heart of the New Forest, so you see the wild horses as you drive along. We would definitely stay there again if we are in the area.

Idyllic Place to Stay

A perfect location in the New Forest, near Burley Village, pubs, golf and walking trails. The flat is fully supplied, clean and very comfortable. The gardens are beautiful and the perfect spot to sit, relax and enjoy the aroma of roses, lavender and wisteria.I would highly recommend and will return in the future.
