“lovely place” We really enjoyed our stay at Sarah's house in Fordingbridge. The house was well placed for walking into the town and to the local pubs. The George was only 5 minutes away and we enjoyed a few evening sat in the sunshine there looking over the river. We also enjoyed a lunch and evening meal there.
The house itself was well stocked with just about whatever we needed - Sarah provided fruit and even left fresh flowers. And we did appreciate the bottle of Prosecco and chocolates. The only thing missing for us was a teapot which we remedied from a local shop.
It was comfortable with nice furniture and plenty of games and DVDs if needed. It also had places to sit outside in the sun.
“Luxurious cottage in the midst of the lovely town of Lymington close to the New Forest.” We stayed in this cottage for just one week. Given the perfect location just outside the New Forest and on the coast line just opposite Isle of Wight, we could easily have spend two weeks here.
The cottage itself is recently renovated to a very high standard. On arrival there were some lovely pink roses and a personal note, the Lymington post (local news paper) and some double chocolate muffins. A really warm welcome!
The next day we got to see the Olympic Torch as the Torch Relay visited Lymington. Great, except for the weather, cats and dogs to see the least...
The cottage is in the old town of Lymington and if you look outside the windows you see the hustle and bustle of the towns harbour. If you step outside the cottage and go to the left on the cobble stones you have some lovely little shops. And if you turn left and up towards Kings Heas, lovely pub, you go to the High Street. Just outside the house is the Shipp Inn. It has the greatest desert we have ever had. It is called the Sharrerrrr and you really should try this if you are into deserts. They have a lovely deck with a great look at the harbour. You could see the boat to Isle of Wight leave.
The high street is full of lovely shops, we counted 3 cook shops! The Fish and Ships shop at the beginning of the High Street on your right hand is really good. We took some home, but you see lots of people eating their F&S in the harbour. At the end of the high street there is a lovely place called Willow with great scones, cakes and coffees and teas.
The New Forest is lovely for walking and the National Motor Museum in Beaulieu is also worth a visit.
“Perfect Base for exploring the new forest!” If you're looking for romantic getaway to the new forest, look no further than sweetslade.
The whole weekend was glorious. Sweetslade is quite frankly the perfect base for exploring the forest. The finish to the property was top drawer with every mod con you could wish for.
Within walking distance to the best sunday lunch you'll ever have at the Rose and Thistle pub.
Generally perfect. Would definitely stay again!
“Surprise 70th family getaway” We had a fantastic family weekend to celebrate my mother in laws 70th birthday, there were 7 adults , along with 2 pre-teens and a baby plus two dogs. The house was fully equipped with everything we needed , and kept us all entertained, loved the enclosed dog area , ideal for our lab pup. Pub just short walk up road and kids loved swimming at sandy balls , 5 min drive away , will hopefully visit again
“Fantastic holiday!” We arrived a bit worn on the Saturday as the traffic into Lyndhurst was horrendous! 1 hour to do 4 miles! I presume it was because it was changeover day and it was a lovely hot, sunny day. But after all that, When we arrived we were very happy with our 'home' for the week! We were a party consisting of myself and hubby, our 4 yr old, our 2 teenage kids (boy & girl) and nanny! Nanny had the bedroom downstairs, and we all had a room to ourselves upstairs. The 2 grownup kids had a double room each, so no squabbles, our 4 yr old had the bunk room and we had the most wonderful master with ensuite. There was enough room for everyone to 'escape' when they wanted. Very comfortable place. Only slight drawback was the garden, it was small and kids couldn't play out there very well. But having said that, they took full advantage of the games table! The road took a little getting used to as we live in the middle of nowhere (we only get the odd tractor), so the noise was new to us, but we soon got used to it. Location wise, we couldn't have had better. The High Street was just around the corner.
All in all a great holiday had by all. Totally recommend!
“A great house to have lots of fun in!” 13 of us stayed for 1 night to celebrate a birthday. The house is perfect!! Ideal for large groups.
Open plan space (I loved that we could all be together in one room)
Kitchen was well equipped, dining table could fit us all around, large comfy lounge, bedrooms were great!
Large garden with a hot tub which was so much fun.
Had an amazing evening wish we had booked the whole weekend!
& in regards to the owner, Martine was brilliant! Thank you!
“Wonderful” Wow, stunning I've stayed in more than 100 holiday homes over the years in the course of my business . And this pips them all , nothing is left to chance absolutely fantastic place . Congratulations to Karin and Ashley you've excelled we will definatey use again .
Thank you Kevin Barry from sercure home systems .
“A great place to stay” We stayed at the Bothy for a week and found it to be well equipped, comfortable and clean. Its well placed for the village and forest and we saw dear on the lawn most evenings. Will definately book again as it's a lovely hideaway!
“Everything we needed for a great stay.” Lovely room, very comfortable bed, spacious shower and even a kitchenette! Annabelle brought a delicious breakfast to our door each day (home made bread, fresh fruit etc) which we enjoyed outside on our own little terrace. We were given an informative file with brochures of what to see and do locally. We were very well looked after.
“Lovely get away” This is a great situated log cabin that is in beautiful, quiet surroundings, but still near pubs and towns.
The cabin is very high speck, with bose system, tv, fire, nice furnishings. I'd say the bedrooms are quite small but ok for a few days.
Is a pain not to have a sink or oven but there is a dishwasher and microwave so makes up for it.
The hot tub is great, but think should've been included in the price as £95 for 4 days and cabin quite expensive anyway, but still cheaper that a lot of places out there.
Would defo recommend if you want a quiet break away, just check with the local pub when they have bands on as it was really loud for hours when we got there on a Saturday, because so quiet the sound really travels.
“Weekend break” We had an amazing time in your lovely caravan.. it was clean and tidy and such a wonderful site. We enjoyed the beach which wasn't far away and the club house in the evening was brilliant. We loved staying and will be booking to come back again thank you for letting it to us
“Perfect weekend” We have just stayed a weekend at the Old Schoolhouse and definitely found a 'gem' in the New Forest. The house was modern, spotless and very well equipped.
The underfloor heating was just wonderful. We visited the coast just 30 minutes drive away to see some amazing seas and also a good visit to Beaulieu Motor Museum.
My husband has mobility problems and found the house very user-friendly.
The little pigs, donkeys, deer, cows, horses and sheep roaming nearby were just magical. It really made you enjoy life at a more restful pace!
“Lovely place to stay” This great cottage has everything you need ,nice and close to plenty of very good food outlets.The New Forest on your doorstep with great walks or if you wanted the train to go further afield and give the car a rest.Will be telling family and friends about this fan place .Many thanks David.
“An amazing family break!” I would like to thank Jayne and Chris for a wonderful 5 day break with my mother and sister in law and six children. The house really was a home from home and we all felt very settled and relaxed there. The house is lovely but it's the gardens and Forset that just blow you away! We saw Deer, and heard Owls of an evening. My little boy (4) loves tractors and Chris let him have a ride on his lap on the tractor when they were helping him in the garden. A great tip if you have kids is to take walkie talkies! They can really explore the woods and look for animals but you can still keep in touch. The kids really loved their Labrador 'Copper' too, who really enjoyed a fuss! We hope to return next year too. X
“Great place to stay” My husband and I stayed in Sue's apartment with our 2 young children. Even before we got there Sue had been really helpful via email and phone. The apartment was just what we needed. It had all of the facilities to be a home from home and is in a central location so lots of places were in easy walking distance including just getting a bit of shopping. There was plenty of storage space which was needed with the kids. The area can be a little bit noisy being central but didn't really bother us. Having a dedicated parking space was also great as with lots of places we could walk to we didn't use the car that much. I would definitely book again if visiting Portsmouth. Thank you Sue.
We had a lovely time at the property. Beautiful location and such a nicely decorated home. Very easy to get about with the train station just down the road too. …

Perfect place for a family getaway
This barn is so beautiful and has everything you need! The owners, Heidi and Chris, are really attentive and gave us such a warm welcome. They have thought of everything (and more) and if you are travelling with small children the barn is really spacious for them to play in!
