This gorgeous thatched cottage is 2 miles from Lymington centre. Seamlessly blending rustic features with contemporary comforts, vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and wooden cladding sit alongside plush furnishings and tasteful decorations. Sleeping ten people and your dogs, gather the troops for days spent playing in the pool, lounging by the fire and exploring the beautiful New Forest.
Home to large, airy rooms, space and style are the order of the day. Nailing the tricky combination of being both authentically charming and luxurious, comfort is key throughout. For the best start to the day, take a step down into the spacious kitchen where neutral tones are splashed with colour to create a soothing, welcoming space. Sip on a steaming cup of coffee and use the well-equipped space to cook for the group. Later, after dinner in the dining room (accessed via steps up), the grown-ups can gather in the beautiful lounge and chat away over a drink, while the kids can scarper off to the separate snug with TV and enjoy space of their own. When everyone is ready for bed, six decadent bedrooms across three floors await. There is a narrow and steep set of stairs (may not be suitable for the elderly or children) leading to the double bedroom with en suite shower room and a cosy twin room set in to the eaves. Outside, all members of your party are sure to fall for the wrap-around lawn, swimming pool, summer house and, of course, hot tub. Play fetch with the dogs as the youngsters bounce on the trampoline, before going head-to-head with a game of outdoor table tennis. Refuel with sizzling food from the BBQ and relax under blue skies.
Whether you are looking for urban forays or plenty of wild and wonderful walks, there is ample for everyone. Home to lots of galleries, boutiques and restaurants, pop into Lymington for a splash of culture. Starting less than 4.5 miles away, Wilverley Inclosure is a popular New Forest walk or head just over 6 miles to Hurst Castle for a bit of history.
