This red brick converted farm building is full of character, from the exposed wooden beams to the stained-glass window that welcomes you through the front door. Sleeping four across two bedrooms, this charming cottage is perfect for small families who want a peaceful countryside getaway. Located on the northern border of the New Forest, there is no shortage of beautiful walks, but you can also access a selection of cities and the coast with ease.

 

As you enter the property, you will be greeted by a cosy, open-plan lounge/diner. After a day of walking, settle down on the sofas near the crackling wood burner and watch a film together. The compact kitchen is well-equipped for whipping up quick meals, which you can enjoy at the traditional farmhouse dining table. Stay refreshed by having a relaxing shower in the contemporary shower room. Also on the ground floor, you’ll find the pretty king-size bedroom, while the twin bedroom is on the first floor and has a convenient TV. Outside is the sunny patio, with garden furniture perfect for al fresco dining. There is ample off-road parking at the property.

 

Head off into the New Forest for a relaxing walk, perhaps taking a picnic with you to enjoy by a scenic river. Situated in West Wellow, there is a lovely selection of welcoming pubs to visit after a woodland stroll. Both Salisbury and Winchester are within 20 miles, perfect for a day out to the city, visiting the cathedrals, some National Trust properties, or simply going shopping. Bournemouth is a great option for a day out at the beach, or you can visit Lymington 18.5 miles away and walk the coast path.

This property is beautiful, with its own secure garden in a rural setting but close to facilities. It has two good size bedrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs. The rest of the accommodation is a through living/dining room, separate well equipped kitchen and a shower room off the hallway near the downstairs bedroom & staircase (isolated with safeRead morety gates at both ends)..

A beautiful cottage in an inspiring environment. We used it as our base to visit cities in the neighborhood. (Winchester, Romsey, Seven Sisters, Stonehenge). It was very clean and comfortable. The owners are very nice. Would recommend the hog house if you want to visit this region.

The Hog House is a wonderful 'home from home'! Deceptively spacious, but still with a lovely cosy feel. Everything you could need is provided, plus lots of very thoughtful extras. Lovely friendly and helpful owners that are happy to recommend places to visit/eat/shop. The location of the cottage is perfect for some peace and quiet, but easy to findRead more and only a short drive from places of interest.
