It is perfect for couples or a small family and is located in a small friendly village on the borders of Hampshire and Dorset ideally situated to take advantage of the many interesting places nearby.

The beautiful New Forest National Park with its native ponies, walks, cycling, horse riding, nature watching is just two miles. There are also local walks from the cottage over farmland and commons.
The surrounding area has so much to offer and all only a short drive away. The historic town of Christchurch is four miles away and has an 11th Century Priory standing just behind the quay. Three miles brings you to Mudeford with its lovely beach, café and beach shop where fishing trips are available from the quay. Hengistbury Head is five miles away and has beautiful walks with views over the headland to a sandy beach with beach huts and café. Barton on sea has a superb golf course overlooking the sea and is just two miles.
Brockenhurst is a small village with a few shops, a popular centre for exploring the varied scenery of the forest and heathland. The attractive village of Lyndhurst with its narrow streets, Victorian/Edwardian architecture and interesting shops is within ten miles and a bit further away is the unspoilt village of Beaulieu, and the home of Lord Montague of Beaulieu who founded his famous motor museum and nearby are the beautiful Exbury gardens.
Lymington is an attractive Georgian market town which sits beside its sheltered harbour and marina and is a popular yachting centre. From here ferries cross regularly to the Isle of Wight. Bournemouth and Poole are ten to fifteen miles away if you like busier towns with more shops.
