Enjoy the panoramic views from an adjacent field, ideal for family picnics.
On the ground floor, you'll find a spacious kitchen, a cosy living room, and two comfortable bedrooms, with one upstairs and a separate work area. The spacious kitchen boasts a dedicated dining space. It is equipped with a dishwasher, washing machine/tumble dryer, electric kettle, microwave, and fridge/freezer.

A travel cot and highchair are available on request. We also provide a movable stair gate for downstairs to fit across the kitchen door or the sitting-room door if requested.

This is not just a holiday for your family as we are pleased to welcome two well-behaved medium-sized dogs (Labrador size) to accompany you. We ask you to keep dogs in the kitchen and not leave them unaccompanied at the Stables. Please exercise your dogs outside the main gates in the forest and clear up any accidental mishaps.
There is an adjacent field by the main gates you can enjoy for picnics and for your children to play. Children should always be supervised, and the field is used at your discretion.

We really loved staying at this house. It’s in the perfect location, stepping out straight into the woods. We spotted 4 deer at sunset on one day, and came across many of the wild horses that roam around in the area. Several great walks in nearby woods too. We recommend visiting the Raptor Centre nearby too. The house was perfect for us. Everything you could need. It was clean & tidy. We really appreciated the bottle of Prosecco & a lovely chocolate cake! Anne greeted us and came to say goodbye thank you Anne & family for hosting us :) We hope to return again to explore some more.

Anne and Ral are wonderful hosts. We were welcomed with a decadent gift of homemade cakes and a bottle of Prosecco. The location is secluded and magical- great walks from the cottages. We saw a white buck at the front gate.

Thanks Anne and Ral
What a lovely break for new year in a remote New Forest cottage. Ideal for walks, mountain biking and generally chilling out- cottage is clean, well equipped and comfy. Will defo stay again.
Hosts are lovely and left is to it - most helpful was the ability to charge my EV on site as well. We had shocking weather but it didn’t matter - a lovely cottage in a lovely part of the world.
The oil heating is robust and we spent most of the time with it off as it gets very warm quickly and we didn’t need it.
Highly recommended

We had a lovely stay here. The hosts were fantastic and communication was great. The house was well stocked for everything we needed. The bed was small for two adults but we knew the size before we arrived. And there were a lot of (harmless) flying bugs around.

This was exactly what we had been looking for! Comfortable accommodation with privacy and in a beautiful location.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week here, and I think our dog enjoyed it even more. Great walks on the doorstep and a very nice 30 minute walk away from roads down into Burley for nice pubs and cafes. Also recommend a visit to the local store and trying some of the local butchers products.
The property was comfortable and clean with a nice outdoor area which we enjoyed.
We would definitely recommend a visit :)

Thank you to Anne the owner, for a fantastic stay in your lovely house, in an amazing location in the woods. The house was very clean and very well maintained, simple check in process and a huge chocolate cake and bottle of fizz welcomed our arrival. It's also a lovely stroll through the woods to the center of Burley with its pubs/restaurants, cafes and well stocked shop. Plus all the shops and supermarkets in nearby Ringwood. A brilliant place to stay and explore the New Forest.
Thanks again. Charlotte and family

Had a fantastic two night stay with family. Anne couldn’t have been more helpful with the booking and directions and the cottage itself is beautiful, homely with every comfort you could wish for. The location is stunning, beautifully quiet but not by any means “remote” with walks out on to the Forest straight from the door. Saw numerous wild horses and even a deer joining them in the field. Thank you Anne for making us feel so welcome and also for the cake and wine which we forgot to thank you for at the time! We can’t wait to stay again. Kevin and family.

Beautiful property in a lovely area
We’ve just had a fantastic time staying in The Stables. The house was beautiful and had everything we needed. It was lovely to be able to walk straight out of the gates and enjoy the New Forest surroundings including all the animals. Anne was welcoming and very helpful. Our 3 year old kept saying “I love our holiday house!” The teenagers were particularly happy that the broadband worked so well!
We plan on making a return visit.

Outstanding location, lovely cottage
We had a great family holiday here. We loved going for walks locally - both straight from the house and with a very short drives. Excellent location for getting to great days out. We would recommend and would be keen to stay again.

Beautiful Setting!
Very clean property with extras left for our convenience which we appreciated. Out door eating possible and we moved the table into the sunshine, heaven.
The only complaints were :-
My sister in law said her mattress on her single bed was lumpy and she could feel the springs, the owner said she would definitely look at it. We stayed in the eaves and there is no window in the room which made it stuffy and a bit claustrophobic. There is strangely a glass door in the room that leads to a sheer drop, but safe. The room would definitely benefit for that to be changed to a window that opened. Ok for 2 nights but wouldn’t want to sleep in the room for longer.
Overall a really lovely stay.

Beautiful Location, Cottage and Animals
The property was spotless and spacious. Anne was very welcoming and only to happy to help with our questions. The location in the woods was magical and perfect for exploring Burley and its surrounds. Some fine pubs within easy driving distance and with excellent food. Fabulous place for a family break or retreat for couples and friends. Having said all that - what made the location truly adorable was the horses, pigs and cattle roaming freely - the children loved this. Would definately return and recommend to friends.

Lovely stay
We had a wonderful stay at the Stables. Some absolutely amazing walks on our door step. We saw lots of ponies and deer very close to the property which was perfect for our three small children.
It was a really comfortable, clean and cosy cottage and we look forward to returning to stay one day soon.

A mixed experience. Brilliant location. Accommodation quality could be improved, clean and tidy
The self-contained Stables are set within the grounds of an impressive house with beautiful gardens in a beautiful location in Burley. Listed dog friendly, the wholly gravelled fenced exterior is small and not particularly dog or people friendly. Given the setting, overall both the interior & exterior could benefit from a little more thought/tlc/investment - individual toiletries, shower basket, towel rails, decent coffee capsules, trays, clean outside seat cushions, pegs, decent double bed & mattress, blackout blinds/lined curtains, operable TV channels/networks (no Netflix or Sky). V large main gates with tricky fastening were to be kept shut at all times but at 5"3", I could not operate them which was annoying. Understandably nervous about our safety and Covid precautions, we didn't appreciate the lecture upon arrival and were swiftly (possibly rudely) shown the door for being 15 mins late for an earlier than usual agreed 10am departure. We appreciated the wine and chocolates. Not entirely sure why these people are renting out.

Cambridge review
A lovely property in a lovely setting, although after trying to walk to Burley on our first day, not suitable which was a shame. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay but for the above reason, may not come again.

New Year in the New Forest!
A wonderful few days over the New Year in a beautiful location. The accommodation was clean, warm and spacious and Anne made us very welcome. Communication regarding travel arrangements beforehand was first class, and then when we were met by Anne, her husband and a bottle of champagne, we knew we had selected the perfect place to spend New Year. Burley is a magical place and I never get tired of visiting. Happy New Year!!
