Wood-burning stove, fire pit and London in 90 minutes
Springers Cottage is a charming 250-year-old part-cobb cottage that has been thoughtfully extended and modernised to combine old-world character with spacious contemporary living. This white-rendered, two-storey cottage with its covered timber porch and established garden sleeps up to 8 guests across 4 individually styled bedrooms, each with its own personality and charm.
Guests enjoy a rare balance of village character, carefully designed interiors, and sociable outdoor spaces that make the cottage equally appealing in every season. The open New Forest begins at the edge of the village, while independent pubs, cafés, and restaurants are all within easy walking distance. Brockenhurst station, with direct trains to London Waterloo in around 90 minutes, is just five minutes away on foot.
What sets Springers Cottage apart is the warmth and practicality found throughout. The inglenook brick fireplace with its wood-burning stove creates a genuinely inviting focal point in the living room, while the outdoor fire pit, BBQ grill, and dining area make gathering together effortless year round. Free on-site parking for two vehicles, bed linen included, and a fully equipped kitchen ensure everything is in place from the moment you arrive.

A Home to Relax and Unwind
The living room is the heart of the cottage, centred around the impressive inglenook brick fireplace and wood-burning stove. Whether gathered around the fire on cooler evenings or relaxing across the teal and grey sofas during the day, the room offers a warm and sociable atmosphere for the whole group. A television sits above the mantlepiece, and natural light pours in through garden-facing windows.
The outdoor space continues the same relaxed and welcoming feel. A fire pit, BBQ grill with utensils, and outdoor dining area create the perfect setup for alfresco meals, evenings under the stars, or quiet morning coffees. Board games are also provided for relaxed evenings indoors.
