About this property

Riverside Lodge New Forest

The accommodation comprises a large open plan living area with underfloor heating and a wood burner, creating a cosy atmosphere perfect for those chilly winter evenings. There are 2 bathrooms and two bedrooms in the Lodge, one twin and one superking (which can be split into 2 singles on request).



Situated on one of the most beautiful and best coarse fishing rivers in the UK the Lodge literally sits on a small lake in an elevated position within yards of the river. The bi-folding doors that open out onto the verandah that juts out over the small lake, from the living space, allow you to enjoy the surroundings from the comfort of the lodge. The master bedroom also has patio doors that lead out onto the verandah.



Facilities:

Satellite TV, iron & ironing board, bed linen & towels, washing machine, dishwasher, terrace, satellite tv, garden, free wireless internet, private parking, pets welcome, no smoking rooms/facilities, safe deposit, smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detector, fire extinguisher, first aid kit, bath with shower, 2x wc, shower,



Free fishing is available in the small lake off the verandah and fishing on one swim on the river bank. A further additional 4 swims of river fishing are available at an additional cost of £75 per person per week, or £35 pp weekend subject to availability, prior to booking.



A nearby paddock and stables are available if you would like to bring your horses on a DIY basis at a cost of £100 per horse.



The Lodge can be booked with Criddlestyle Cottage (sleeps 10) and Mews Hill (sleeps 11) to sleep 24 and with the addition of Jessica, our vintage vw campervan (only available in the warmer months) this can increase by 2 adults and 2 children to 29.



This property is not suitable for children under 11 years of age due to the proximity of the lake and very fast flowing river which runs close to the lodge. Parents can bring children from 8 years of age at their own discretion.



This property may also be unsuitable for people with walking difficulties due to the steep slope leading down to the Lodge. We provide a trolley to transport your belongings.

A £250 refundable security deposit is charged to ensure against damage
