We had an excellent week in this house. The house is very luxurious. Only one remark, the bed in the master bedroom is not comfortable. But for the rest it is a very good house. The kitchen is well equipped. The whole house was very clean. So in 1 word, perfect

We all had a great time at the bungalow, which was spacious, modern and very clean(I am really fussy about cleanliness but I had no issues about this place). Everything was there from dishwasher to baby bowls The garden was perfect for the kids. Have to say the pictures don’t do the bungalow justice.
It’s location is perfect for lots of places to visit although a car is probably a good idea.

Great bungalow and great location
Bungalow was in a great location, so peaceful. Plenty of room for us and had all the facilities we needed. Great location for exploring many tourist attractions in the area. It was just a 20 min walk to Three legged Cross pub or 10 minute drive (50 min walk) to Ringwood. The property was nice and clean, well equipped. one or two things that need slight attention, garden gate leading to the Trailway path does not lock ( it turns with they key but does not catch in the lock) from the path side, meaning we did not use it as we did not want to leave it insecure. Some of the pans in the kitchen need replacing, (stained/ burnt marks), some spots in the main bathroom need attention (grouting, base of shower door) only minor things, probably find similar in my own house, but in a high quality rental holiday home, I think they should be addressed

Spacious and generally well-appointed bungalow
It’s our second VRBO rental, and the first was absolutely tip-top, so although this property was good enough, we were slightly disappointed.
We used two lovely bedrooms, with comfortable bed linen and duvets, etc. Mine had a great front garden view.
Kitchen was good, but a bit grubby. Shortage of teaspoons, but plenty of mugs, plates, big bowls and glasses. Small bowls would have been appreciated. Some rusty and dirty oven dishes definitely need chucking!!! Freezer was iced-up too.
Tatty sofa and cushions that have seen better days but a lovely size kitchen/diner, with good lighting.
The back garden looked lovely but we didn’t venture out into it during the wintry wet week that we were house hunting in the area.
The location is quite remote, with pretty pine woodland surrounding the quiet close, but an all-hours shop is reasonably near.
Overall, the property is cosy and well-resourced, but we found that it lacked the TLC and attention to detail that we’d expected.

Relaxing break away
Lovely property, very quiet. Great walks or cycle from end of garden along castleman trail.

Our family of 6 stayed for a week at the start of August. We had a brilliant time. The area is superb as the property is in an ideal location where you get the best of both worlds. Ashley Heath is a quiet area next to Moors Valley Park and only a short drive to Bournemouth (15 min).
The property is excellent, it is decorated and fitted to a high standard and has a large garden. Our 2 eldest children enjoyed having daily walks to the local shop along the disused train line which is accessible via a gate at the bottom of the garden.
Highly recommend.

Excellent home, location and communication!
Thank you very much for a wonderful stay! The property was simply perfect for my young children, myself and my husband and my parents. The rooms are spacious and well equipped with cupboards and comfy duvets; the kitchen is stocked with everything you could ever need- including a large fridge; the open plan living room opened up on to a large, child-friendly garden that really kept my children entertained throughout our stay! Location was also perfect: Moors Valley is excellent for families but equally everything else (Bournemouth/ Poole/ Peppa Pig World etc) is within 20/25 mins drive!
Thanks again- would DEFINITELY recommend!

Great bungalow in ideal location to explore the New Forest
Great property with everything we needed as a family of 4 with two younger children. It was so nice to find the owner had provided tea, coffee, soap, dishwasher tablets, shower gel, shampoo and even a bottle of milk in the fridge. Overall they had thought of everything.
The house was an ideal base for exploring the New Forest and attractions. Having the Moors Valley Country Park within walking distance and Avon Heath a very short distance away was ideal for the kids to explore and play.
Brilliant holiday which we would highly recommend.

Convenient & comfortable
Lovely week even though the weather was a bit iffy. Great location for exploring the whole area. The house is well equipped, warm and comfortable. Super garden, though due to weather we didn’t get to use it as much as we’d have liked. Highly recommended.

Lovely clean home from home
Clean, lovely bedrooms, fab bathrooms. We thoroughly enjoyed the property and what’s on offer in the area. Everything is within 20-30mins drive, great little town centre with market on a weds too. Only criticism is the side is a bit uncomfortable and lumpy, and the pillows need replacing. That is being picky though, really wouldn’t complain about anything.

Spacious accommodation in a lovely setting.
Great bungalow that is spacious, very well equipped, clean and in a lovely quiet setting. Great communication from Helen from the start of the booking process until the end of our stay. The bungalow is light and airy and the garden is a lovely spot to relax after exploring the local area. We had a great time and would definitely make another booking. Thoroughly recommend this holiday home!

Lovely Bungalow & Location
My family enjoyed staying in this lovely bungalow. The location was brilliant. Backs onto The Castleman Trail and you can ride or walk to discover the area.
Our 7 year old loved riding his bike to Moors Valley Park and along the Castleman Trail every day - went late on as the park got very busy during the day (Easter holidays). Arrived at 5pm and you have the place to yourselves!
Bungalow had everything we needed and the garden was perfect for relaxing in. Sheltered and warm (even in April). Just needs a hot tub!! Haha!
We spent a week here and explored the area and went as far as Stonehenge.
Communication was great with the owners and we had a great time on our bikes and I would recommend this bungalow.
