The Old Cart Shed, Rockbourne

Summary:

This attractive holiday home is close to New Forest and sleeps up to 6 people in three bedrooms.



The Space:

In the historic village of Rockbourne is West Park Farm, a working beef and arable farm. Occasionally, if you'd like to get involved you may be able to help the owner with day to day farm tasks and you are welcome to explore the pretty bluebell wood. Also on site you'll find a large pond and a hard tennis court, which you are welcome to use (but please bring your own racquets). West Park Farm is ideally placed for exploring the New Forest, the cathedral city of Salisbury and the sandy beaches of Bournemouth and Christchurch. Full of character, The Old Cart Shed, has high raftered ceilings, exposed beams and natural wood has been used wherever possible. Pretty cottage furnishings complement the modern bathrooms and kitchen. The bedrooms are configured for versatility, including stacker beds in one of the ground floor rooms, enabling it to be used as a single or twin room. From the lounge a handsome wooden staircase leads to a gallery bedroom tucked under the eaves. The Old Cart Shed has its own private, enclosed garden, though guests are welcome to enjoy the shared seating area around the pond. Up to two well behaved dogs welcome charged at £60 each per stay. Please note: Towels are not provided



The Neighborhood:

Rockbourne is a village with a pub, and a 12th century church. Home to thatched cottages and by a willow-bordered stream on the edge of the New Forest National Park, Rockbourne is rich in history with Neolithic and Bronze Age barrows, Iron Age fort and impressive Roman villa. Fordingbridge town is a short journey away, offering a wealth of shops and places to drink as well as its own museum to keep you occupied.
