This was the second time we have stayed at this cottage and yet again it doesn’t disappoint. It’s lovely and clean its certainly home from home. It’s ideally situated close to the New Forest, pubs and shops are on the doorstep. We found a pub called the cheques inn it’s about a 6 minute drive, dog friendly food and service is good. If we go to the New Forest again this cottage would be my first choice

Lovely

Stayed here with Hubby and dog . What a lovely quaint Cottage and lovely garden . Love all the plants and stone statues. Perfect places peaceful and lots to do in the area . Lymington and Milford on sea and new Milton . Love the decor and all the pictures . Bed comfortable and the pictures don’t do it justice online . Well worth staying excellent stay .

We have stayed at Sun Cottage twice now and it meets all our requirements. Spotlessly clean and located in a very pleasant area opposite the common. Lovely garden for sitting out in when the sum shines. Stairs steep but, although we are no longer young, we can manage them. Thank you, we had a very pleasant stay. Dee

We were lucky to find this cottage still available over the Easter bank holiday weekend so booked a 3 night stay for 3 adults. The description is accurate and Michael checked that I had received all the check in information via Vrbo. We were very lucky with the weather and went into the forest for lunch and to Milford on Sea to the beach. We walked down Priestlands Road, then lane onto the Bunny Run to get to the town centre. We didn't get to visit the Saturday market but drove through as it was ending and it still looked busy and varied. The garden was secure for the dogs and there was a little gate outside the front area which is shared with the neighbour. Lots of dog poo bins on the common opposite and around town. I would return but aim for a less busy weekend as pubs were fully booked and tourists attractions were very busy but this is a sign of how popular the area is.

We stayed at this lovely cottage for the autumn half term with our five year old. The cottage is nicely furnished and ideal for a small family the stairs took a little getting used to but even the little one got the hang of it. There is a nice playground across the road she liked a lot. Shops are close if needed and a trip to Mileford is recommended (thank you for the tip Michael) there is lots to do and see around there and we had a great week. Thank you for having us.

The cottage is compact but cosy and well furnished with a private garden, and it suited our needs (2 siblings on a short break). The stairs are narrow so care is needed on the way down! It's a really quiet area. We had a lovely stay, and would return.

we enjoyed our three night stay nice chippy in walking distance fields opposite for walking the dog

The property was lovely and met or exceeded all expectations. Great location, charming little cottage with comfortable beds, thoughtful amenities and great water pressure, lovely enclosed garden and across from a large grassy common, (perfect for dogs), very short walk to convenience stores and nice walk into lovely port town. Short drive to Milford on Sea beach and walk to Burch Castle - all very teen/family and dog friendly. Highly recommend.

Beautifully decorated, clean and well equipped little cottage on the edge of the New Forest. It was perfect for 2-3 people with a sweet garden with seats that you could sit in. It is worth being aware that, being a cottage, the bathroom is downstairs. Also you do park on the road outside - these weren’t an issue however.

We had a lovely stay in this sweet Victorian cottage. It was cool during the heatwave and very pleasant with the doors open onto the pretty garden. It was well furnished and felt like a home from home, very tastefully selected items that added to the character of the place. Shops just down the road, parking outside on the road, although we parked in a nearby lay by. Whether it is a covid restriction now, but I would have liked some basic items such as coffee, sugar, milk, but tea was provided. I think this is a sign of the times. It didn't effect our stay as the shops are within walking distance. Very lovely countryside and beaches near by, Lymington up the road, Christchurch half an hour drive away and the wonderful Hengistbury head beach. Great stay and a quiet little retreat. Thank you.

We had a great 3 night stay at this lovely cottage, it was spotlessly clean and even all the basics were provided such as towels, soap etc. Great location with a common opposite to walk the dog and a dog friendly beach about a 10 minute drive away. A Tesco express, One Stop and fish and chip shop at the end of the road. We enjoyed the beautiful sun trap garden as we were so lucky with the weather during our stay. It was also nice and secure for our dog. Communication was great-location easy to find from the detailed instructions, also guides on how to work the tv and a list of useful telephone numbers was helpful. Everything was well thought out so we had a great time!

Excellent communication with Mick prior to holiday. Very little contact needed during trip as the place was exactly as described. Property was very much what we needed as a base for our New Forest holiday. Great location with so many activities within 20mins or so, particularly for our 7 year old, e.g. Hired bikes for a day, Lymington Sea Water Inflatables, Forest Arts Centre, Various beaches, Beaulieu, Calshot Activity Centre, Snowtrax Ski Centre.

Gorgeous cottage situated in the New Forest, opposite the Common which our dog loved running around. The cottage was very comfortable, clean and very well equipped although there are some lovely local pubs which do excellent food. The garden is lovely certainly a sun trap but has shade too. Thank you for a wonderful place to stay.

Lovely little cottage next to common. Very close to a lot of amenities. Pretty garden. We had a great time travelling round the forest

Really enjoyed our stay. It was a lovely touch to have milk in the fridge, for a cup of tea on arrival. Everything was as expected, and lovely and clean. The garden was delightful, a perfect place to sit & relax. The cottage was in a excellent location, perfect for walks, and a short walk into Lymington.

The property was very convenient and well equipped. With the common just across the road it was ideal for our dog. A good location for visiting the coast and the New Forest which we would have enjoyed more if the weather had been better.

We spent a fantastic week in this cottage. There were two adults and our dog. The cottage was perfectly situated for us as there was a large common directly opposite where we could walk the dog and the back garden was fully enclosed so we could relax outside. There are a couple of small supermarket type convenience stores just a couple of minutes walk away. The walk into town and quay was a pleasant stroll (about 25mins) where there are lovely shops, cafes and pubs (many dog friendly). We found the cottage itself to be very comfortable and very well equipped, everything was to a very high standard. We would most definitely stay there again if we are holidaying in that area.

The cottage is well situated in Pennington - easily accessible to the lovely town of Lymington and the coast at Milford on Sea, and in lovely countryside. Communication with the owner was timely and informative and the cupcakes on arrival were a nice touch. The pretty little garden is one of the best features at the cottage with an early morning sun patio , ideal for breakfast, and a seating area to catch the sunset with a glass of wine. Well equipped and comfortable, although the staircase is steep and narrow. It was the perfect place for the two of us for the glorious Easter weekend.

Lovely little cottage. Good nearby shops and not a long walk into Lymington

As described

The cottage was in a brilliant location to walk the coastal routes and visit the New Forest. It was very cosy and homely. The tasty cup cakes upon arrival were very welcome. Definitely a home from home that is recommended for all.

Lovely property, clean, comfortable with a lovely garden. The only thing of note is that you cannot park outside the house due to other cars parking. We managed to park on the road and this did not interfere from our stay.

The house suited our needs perfectly. The front was underwhelming but it was immediately lost by the charm when we got in to the cottage.

The cottage is exactly as described. There is a lovely little garden that is a real sun trap and very peaceful. It is set in a quiet location with a one stop shop, Tesco express and chippy just a short walk away. A great location for visits to Beaulieu, Christchurch and Bournemouth and there are lots of lovely villages close by to visit. Lymington Quay is a must see. The coast is about a 5 minute drive from the cottage. Plenty of lovely pubs a short drive away. We highly recommend the Smugglers Inn in Milford on Sea about a 5 minute drive. Lovely food and outstanding service. Never been to the New Forest before but will definitely return. I would recommend the cottage and location to family and friends. We really had a lovely holiday and were blessed with gorgeous weather

We would highly recommend staying at Sun Cottage. The cottage is clean, welcoming, cosy and well equipped. The location is perfect for loads of great days out returning to a stunning garden to complete a perfect day. Our host was warm and helpful right from the start. Thank you Michael we will be returning.

This is such a lovely place to stay. Everything is provided (including cake and milk) and so much of the equipment looks practically new (kettle, oven, toaster). The setting with the common just over the road is wonderful. We had some lovely evening walks and even spotted a couple of badgers. The garden is beautiful. We sat outside for breakfast every day. The owner is very clear and friendly in all communication. I highly recommend it. Thank you like for a lovely holiday.

Great cottage in central location.

Lovely Victorian cottage in a good location for the south coast and the New Forest. Excellent communication with the host. Cakes, tea and milk greeted our arrival. The stairs are very narrow and steep, which we were warned about before booking. One of our party did struggle with them. We as a couple wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

We had a lovely stay at this delightful little house. On arrival, we were presented with a cakestand with delicious cupcakes/attention to detail very pleasing.It was fully equipped, very clean, very pretty and cosy with a small garden(great for that afternoon cuppa in the sun). Opposite a common, perfect for a stroll and walking your dog/s. (Thats partly why we chose to stay as dog friendly).Very near to Lymington and access to New Forest and Coast. Also convenience stores and takeaways in walking distance. Thankyou Micheal for providing your home so we could enjoy it, we will definitely be back! June Lee-Smith

Clean, well equipped, easy parking, very homely.
