Soul-soothing escapism awaits in the heart of the New Forest with this idyllic holiday home welcoming ten guests. Uncover magical scenic routes with direct access to miles of trails through spellbinding woodland and heath, where ponies and deer (and in the autumn, pigs!!) roam freely. Eager explorers can immerse in tranquil walks, cycling and wildlife or head to the Beaulieu River (10 miles) for adventurous activities like paddleboarding and kayaking. There's plenty for children to do, too, including tree-top adventures at Go Ape Moors Valley (15 miles) and animal encounters at Longdown Activity Farm (11 miles) and The New Forest Wildlife Park (12 miles). Swap glorious countryside for golden sands at Highcliffe or Avon Beach (within 9 miles), where you can enjoy paddling and local ice creams. With so much variety close by, the location makes it easy to explore, adventure and unwind at your own pace.
Step into this gorgeously golden-hued retreat where rustic charm meets high-quality comfort and beautiful interiors. The soft palette used throughout installs a deep sense of calm and relaxation. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner is at the heart of this showstopping home and invites you to make your morning coffee, catch up at the island or chat while the cook rustles up a feast for the family. There's even a play den nearby that keeps the kids entertained while the grown-ups plate up. The kitchen space seamlessly flows into the dining area, where a large wooden dining table will host many dinner parties or board game nights. When you're full, the cosy living room is a dream to retire to, nestled around the fireplace for an evening of unwind. Behind a secret door (don’t tell the children) is a cosy snug with comfy armchairs, perfect for some quiet time with a coffee, morning read and a biscuit or two. If, however, you're looking for some friendly competition, the games room is ideal for all ages and offers a pool table, table tennis and darts, with seating for coaches and commentators. At bedtime, head upstairs to discover five luxurious king-size bedrooms, two of which boast en-suite shower rooms. Each bedroom has its own theme, and the calming tones and soft furnishings are simply perfect for a restful sleep. One of the beds can be made into twin beds if required. Rounding off this floor is the chic family bathroom, offering roll-top bath, walk-in shower and WC.
Throw open the patio doors in the dining area and find a beautifully designed lawn space with a BBQ, covered seating area, and kids' play zone. The hot tub is a sumptuous feature and provides mornings and evenings of complete solace in the sunshine. Private parking is available here for four cars and an electric car charging point.
