Perfect relaxing stay yet again

Thank you. This place is so perfect for us when we come over to England to visit everyone. It's so nice to be able to stay in these cottages, we have room to relax, so much nicer than a hotel room where you are stuck in a small room. The cottage layouts are so open and have everything you need. Cannot wait to return.

AMAZING PLACE TO STAY

We needed a peaceful rest after the xmas madness and this didn't disappoint in any shape or form! It was clean, tidy and so very welcoming - we were given a bottle of soft drink, biscuits and doggie treats - my son and our dog were very happy and once we cracked open a bottle of red and threw logs on the wood burner we were all ecstatic. A wonderful place to stay - loved the two bathrooms and small garden space (for dog) Rebekah was always available if you had any problems (not that we did). It was hard to leave as we loved it so much and will most definitely return.

Fabulous!

We stayed at Squirrel Drey for a week with our 2 sons aged 13 and 10 and our Labrador. The cottage is beautiful, a real home from home and has everything you could possibly need. The photos on the website don’t do it justice! We made use of the pool each day and I also used the hair salon and the beauty salon. The staff were really friendly and made us feel very welcome. It’s a lovely location, near enough to excellent shops, and we also went down to the beach, just a short drive away. I would certainly book to stay here again.

Amazing break away

My husband and me stayed at the squirrels drey cottage with our daughter. It was perfect place, so lovely inside as well as al lovely garden too and even Netflix’s! It was so cosy and welcoming, and so clean. I couldn’t recommend this cottage and area enough. Cookies and a drink were left for us, she also provides tennis rackets and tennis balls for the courts behind the cottage, there are books and games to play too. We had the best weekend. Thank you so much, every detail is catered for x

Exceptional, clean, bright and airy

The proprty was quite new and in perfect condition. Bright and airy, clean and comfortable. I am a pretty fussy woman and can tell you the beds were comfortable, the kitchen had everything you should need and the sofas were comfy. It was a beautiful quiet location with the benefit of the country club gym and pool. My son and I fell in love with the Shetland pony and goat. The owner was accomadating and gave is info on the local area. Would recommend this lodge to anyone wanting to get away from it all in style.

Lovely property in an interesting area.

The property is a lovely open plan space, immaculately clean, with most things you would need. We arrived early and had coffee in the club. The property was ready so we were given the keys early. There were some nice touches like cookies and juice to welcome us plus there was milk in the fridge and plenty of tea and coffee. It was an excellent base for visiting Southampton and Portsmouth ( we advise using the excellent park and ride for the latter. There are also interesting places for walks locally - Titchfield Nature Reserve and take the little pink ferry from Warsash to Hamble-le-Rice. All in all a superb holiday!

Fantastic holiday

Brilliant location, cottage was amazing with everything and more you could need. Spotlessly clean. The facilities made a great addition being able to use the pool, steam room and sauna was great. They also had tennis, badminton, hair salon and other activities but we didn't use these. The people were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Highly recommended and will definitely be returning xx

Lovely, spacious and clean property

We stayed her with our 2 children (ages 7 & 10), for the May/June half term. We rent a cottage/ self catering unit in the UK 2 to 3 times/ year, so have stayed in many properties all over the country. This is one of the most spacious properties we have stayed in, including many 3 bedroom properties. It was well placed for exploring the attractions in Portsmouth and Gosport and was a manageable drive to Marwell Zoo and the New Forest. Whilst staying at the property you are entitled to use the facilities at the country club, but we were so busy we didn’t get chance. The children enjoyed visiting Pickles the Shetland pony and Branston the goat each evening when we got in who live in the paddock opposite the property. We would definitely recommend a stay here.

Ruhe und Entspannung

Etwas Abseits gelegen ,man benötigt immer das Auto, liegt das Cottage herrlich ruhig. Zum Ausspannen und mal runter kommen perfekt geeignet. Als Ausgangspunkt um die fantastische Umgebung und Städte zu erkunden auch super geeignet. Um einen reinen Badeurlaub zu machen ,dafür ist es dann doch zu weit von den Stränden entfernt. Das Cottage selber ist genau wie auf den Bildern zu sehen , urgemütlich .Wir haben uns sehr sehr wohl gefühlt.

Excellent place to stay.

Beautiful, well presented accommodation with everything you need. Great open plan space with spacious bedrooms and en-suite to main bedroom. Kitchen was well laid out with all the pots/pans/crockery/cutlery you would need. Milk and cookies left for us which was nice welcome. Easy to find and close to Whiteley shopping centre which has a large Tesco and good variety of restaurants as well as shops. Plenty of things to do in the local area. It was about half hour drive to Portsmouth for shopping at Gun Wharfe or viewing the ships at the waterfront. The New Forest is within easy reach and the Wildlife Park close by. Would highly recommend.
