Wonderful tranquil property

What a wonderful place to stay! Small and perfectly formed, clean and had every thing we needed. Beautiful surroundings far from the noise and bustle of everyday life, perfectly located to explore all the New Forest has to offer. Host was fabulous, not that we ever met face to face, great communication and everything worked so there was no need! Would recommend very highly indeed and rebooked without hesitation!

The summerhouse was cosy, warm, clean and well equiped. The bed was very comfortable and would recommend staying there. The welcome pack and instructions were very helpful and clear. Beautiful location very quiet. Looking forward to going back at some stage.

Safety issue

there is a 8"step down into the kitchen area which you always need to be aware of alsi a 6"step down into the bathroom which if you need to access in the night in the dark can be a hazard particularly as my balance is not great. I also missed an non slip .at for the bath and shower.

A haven of tranquility

Totally sweet summerhouse, nice and private and very secure. Unfortunately the weather didn't oblige for most of my stay but everything I needed was there to make it comfortable and homely. There's a lovely farm shop and small garden centre nearby if you need anything in a hurry rather than going to the supermarket.

A lovely property with a secure garden for my dog and access to the owner’s garden where you can meet Tilly the friendly black lab. Richard was an exceptional host and came to say hello after check in. The location is great. Down a very quiet country lane but close to both the New Forest and the Solent.

Return visit - love it here

Lovely little summerhouse - perfect location for dog walking. This was our third visit since 2020. Homely, cosy and had everything we needed - apart for this year we couldn’t find a bread knife, so our sandwiches and toast were a rather funny shape after being hacked about (no big deal lol, but it would be handy to have one). I’m sure we will return again.

About the host

Hosted by Richard

Host profile image
Becky, my three young daughters, and myself have lived in the New Forest for ten years now. We couldn't imagine living anywhere else. This idealic location has so much to offer right on your door step. Becky teaches part time at a veterinary university, and works at a vet practice when she is not teaching and I have a small business in the centre of Lymington. We both sail as much as possible and race on Thursday nights and Saturday afternoons. I am a volunteer of the Lymington RNLI so if you hear the car racing off in the middle of the night you will know why!

Why they chose this property

We live next door and aim to make your stay as memorable as possible. The cottage is very private, however, we are around if you need us and we hope to be around most of the time to help with any queries regarding the cottage and where to go and visit.
