Superbly situated 2-bed flat, 11 minutes drive from the seaside and smack in the middle of the New Forest countryside. The rooms were huge and, whilst they retained a 'retro' vibe, they were perfectly well appointed with everything necessary for a very cosy stay. A massive, heated and enclosed swimming pool was a huge benefit after a hard days' hiking. Good water pressure in the shower, ample heating and cooling throughout the flat and full Sky TV and WiFi was a bonus. Excellent for a couple or small family.

There was nothing to dislike - even the neighbours in the adjacent house (who shared the pool) were charming!

Access to a kitchen, living room etc. Being able to use the pool. Plenty of space for parking. Close to the pub for dinner. The host was immediately available to deal with one or two questions.

One day we couldn’t use the pool as it had just been cleaned. I suppose that can’t be helped but it was a shame. Another night the guests in the other house were noisy and kept us awake. I’m not sure allowing access to the pool late at night is helpful in keeping the noise down.

Great location with secure garden for dog and a very attractive setting. Very clean. The pool is wonderful and the additional towels a nice touch. Wifi and Sky TV service excellent. Exceptional value for money. The property exceeded our expectations.

Kitchen is short of a few basic tools - such as slotted turner, potato masher. There is only the minimum amount of crockery and just the one pot. There seemed to be issues with the latches on some of the windows. Curtains in lounge do not close easily.

Exclusive Use of swimming pool

Furniture a little tired and swimming pool not very inviting

Nothing

Old worn out furniture which was badly damaged beds not fit to sleep in. Built in wardrobe was full of black mould and extremely smelly Workman turning up at 8am to dig up the garden outside the bedroom window without prior notice. No spare towels as promised in booklet. We was not greeted by the host and upon ringing him he didn’t answer or return by call. So therefore we left the property one day/night earlier. Bitterly disappointed this was not what we expected - so therefore we feel it was a complete waste of money!!! A very poor experience

Great location for exploring new forest and surrounding areas. The flat had everything we needed, was really well stocked and had a homely feel. Can just imagine this being superb in the summer. Surprised by the pool, the pictures don’t do it any justice, added bonus. Dog friendly too but didn’t smell of pets.

A little outdated and could do with a spruce up but wouldn’t put me off from coming back at all.

Clean, comfortable everything you need provided. Garden good and swimming pool available. Dog loved it. Good position for exploring the area. Lots of dog friendly places to visit and eat.

Only issue was the busy road so needed extra care with the dog
