Property code: OC-66130

Set amongst spectacular countryside, this former barn has been refurbished to an excellent standard with a plethora of walking, cycling and hiking trails locally for you to explore on foot, two wheels or with your four-legged friend. You'll also find a wealth of traditional pubs to treat yourselves too. This fabulously stylish property sleeps five and it's open-plan interior makes it a perfect space for spending quality time together.

This property is a truly welcoming space mixing rustic tradition in the form of wood beams and dining table with a contemporary and well-equipped kitchen area. Snuggle up on comfortable sofas in front of the woodburner or enjoy a glass of wine before dinner perched on one of the bar stools. Upstairs you'll find three bedrooms - one king, one double and a single - all tastefully decorated along with a fantastic family bathroom complete with luxurious free-standing bath and separate shower. The bedrooms are all set in the eaves so there is some restricted head height, but all have beautiful views of the countryside so you can truly relax. Outside you'll find a patio, BBQ and fully enclosed lawn so your dog can run free whilst you make the most of the outside space. With off-road parking for two cars just 50 metres from the property, you'll have everything you need.

Not only does this property offer some great walks nearby, but just over 21 miles away you'll find the very popular town of Lymington with its vibrant harbour and fantastic choice of eateries with views. Otherwise travel 8.5 miles to the cathedral city of Salisbury and marvel at the UK's tallest spire and best-preserved Magna Carta or simply soak up the wild beauty of nature in the New Forest National Park.

Lovely location with views across the horses' fields. For five guests, the space is a little bit tight, and the fifth person had to sit on a bean bag as the sofas are really only two-person sofas. Near to Salisbury as well as numerous New Forest walks. The local pub is five minutes down the road, just watch out for winter hours as it's not open on Read moreMondays and Tuesdays, very friendly.
