Experience the New Forest in all its glory and stay in this charming bijou retreat on the cusp of Godshill, a peaceful spot surrounded by rugged heathland and roaming ponies. Boasting a generous welcome pack, an all-weather hot tub and all the home comforts you could wish for, the property sleeps four along with two canine companions. You’ll soon be dividing your days between exciting adventures and relaxing evenings and, on the nights you don’t feel like cooking, the nearby pub is a 0.5-mile walk away.

 

Bright, spacious and contemporary, your homely abode is set adjacent to the owners’ property, yet you’ll be guaranteed privacy. Step inside and unwind with a glass of wine, rustling up hearty meals in the kitchen/diner or perching at the breakfast table for a light snack. There’s an additional table in the lounge for board games and extravagant feasts, and the comfy sofas are a cosy spot for watching family films. Refresh yourself in the shower room then choose from two pretty bedrooms, a welcome sight after a busy day. Outside, the covered hot tub, BBQ and garden furniture are a treat on balmy summer afternoons. Why not pop open the bubbly and enjoy a glass whilst stargazing at night?

 

Walk and cycle along the various trails leading from your doorstep, venturing across the wilderness of the stunning national park with a picnic in tow. If adrenaline-fuelled excursions fill you with anticipation, there’s an activity centre within 4 miles offering abseiling, archery and bushcraft, or visit the exciting aqua park also 4 miles away. For really young guests, Peppa Pig World is within 12.5 miles, or wander through beautiful Beaulieu and visit the Motor Museum 20.5 miles away.

What a stunning location, right in the middle of the forest. Surrounded by peace and wild animals of the New Forest. Added to that the cottage is well equipped, modern and clean.

Lovely and well maintained. Pam was very friendly and helpful. Gutted we didn't get to the butchers behind until the end of the week. Such a great place to visit, wild animals and picturesque countryside.

We had a wonderful week at Forest Hideaway with our 2 noisy puppies. It was their first holiday and they had the best time ever. Just being able to walk in the open forest after less than 5 minutes on their leads was the best thing for them. The fact that they could walk for miles without seeing anybody was ideal for their training. The kitchen at Read moreForest Hideaway was well equipped and the lounge cosy. The bed we used was nice and firm so we all slept really well. Hide
