With miles of walking or cycling tracks from the door and a cozy local village inn with a lovely garden (and extensive menu) a short stroll away you can enjoy a break from driving and enjoy the forest at a slower pace to really appreciate its beauty and tranquillity.

Great location for exploring the North of the New Forest.
Great location for exploring the North of the New Forest. Lots of walks on the doorstep plus a good pub in the village. The locals are friendly, especially the four legged ones!

Beautiful area so close to the forest.
Beautiful area so close to the forest. A lovely upside down cottage. Nice views from rear windows. Great to see wild life walking past. Over whelmed by generous welcome pack, too many goodies to list. Both my dogs enjoyed their stay, lots of lovely walks for them in the forest. A small dog gate at the top of the stairs dog maybe a good idea? Enjoyed the break very much.
