Peaceful garden annexe
We really enjoyed our stay here. Chloe is a great host and was really responsive to any questions we had, and also had some good local recommendations. The location is great, and has a lovely little shop and a great pub right by it. There are really nice countryside walks in the area, and it's also easy to get to Salisbury and all sorts of other places. The accommodation itself was really clean, comfortable, quiet and peaceful. We also got to meet the cat and one of the dogs! We would definitely stay again.

Garden Room
Fabulous location, friendly host and great accommodation

The Chalet at Primrose Hill BH19 3EE
This place was perfect for what we needed it for! We were attending a wedding close by and needed somewhere local enough to the venue. This was a perfect location and perfect place for that! Barbara gave instructions to the property that was clear and easy to follow. And the property had everything we needed, exactly as described! Would recommend, location had beautiful views.

Less than 5min walk to village and 7 min to sea
Great location - Very Quiet yet within short walking distance to Milford on Sea centre with Shops, Restaurants, Pubs and the beach. Clean, comfortable and very well equiped> it had everything you need for a relaxing break. Kevin is very welcoming and helpful. Leaving cake on arrival was a nice and most welcome touch, and also the Dishwasher was a nice surprise.

The Lazy Lodge
What a fantastic stay! I went to chill out and that’s exactly what happened. Very grateful. The LazyLodge was exactly that!! Had a fab time!! Thank you!

The Studio B&B Luxury Garden Room
Perfect place to stay for a weekend in Christchurch. The Airbnb had everything you need. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay again if in the area!

Caister Cottage Barn
My wife and I spent a few days at Liz and David's AirBnb. Lovely secluded place, good pubs nearby reached by walks through the forest. Breakfast provided; great shower. Easy to get everywhere in the New Forest. We would definitely stay again!!

Cabin with parking, ensuite, own entrance & garden
Great place to stay, for us it was ideal for visiting Southampton and my brother who was in hospital near by. Lovely quiet garden was a bonus and a visit from the owners Lovely dog. plus good wifi. We stayed 4 nights and would definitely stay again.

Lucky Rabbit Retreat
Absolutely perfect stay!Everything you needed and more. Lucky rabbit retreat was spotlessly clean and the garden was so lovely and spacious and secure for my 6 month old granddaughter and dog Tigerlilly to play in. Karin was very thoughtful in what she left for us and very accommodating and friendly. We have stayed in lots of places in the new forest but this was by far the best and we cannot wait to come back again. Thank you Karin. Look forward to seeing you again!

Castle Hill Cottage
We had a great stay, the place was quite clean and comfortable, the dog loved having the garden to play in. Ben was super helpful and I loved the list of recommendations in the room. It was lovely to play cards on the patio while the sun was shining. Ben was very good at communicating with us throughout our stay. Would definitely book again

Full use: hot tub/sauna/bbq/firepit/Netflix/Prime
We stayed at Little Oakford for our wedding anniversary and it was fantastic. Alaister and Gwen have created something very special here. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Easy access to come and go as you please, amenities with perfect for our needs and the mini spa at this place was amazing. Great location not far from Lulworth cove and Durdle door which was a very nice experience. Lovely local pub at the end of the lane which provided us with great food and drink. Highly recommend this place for people to go and enjoy. Would return to this place for sure!

Arne View Lodge, South facing with Hot tub.
Victoria and Steve’s place is just as described - clean, super cosy and the hot tub is fab. Great launch pad to explore Studland/Corke/the coastal area. Easy to get around - bus to Poole from pretty much outside the front door (Rockfish restaurant is great!) and if you don’t mind a 20/30 mins walk, there are a couple of nice pubs in walking distance. Thanks for a lovely stay!

Cabin in the Forest
The Cabin was in a fanatic location to explore the new forest and the communication from Tom and Lucy prior to arrival was excellent. On arrival the space was spotlessly clean and all amenities required were to a high standard. The homemade bread and beer in the fridge was a lovely touch. On arrival there was a personal note from Tom and Lucy with local recommendations and the local pubs delivered fantastic food. Communication throughout the stay and on checkout was excellent and gave us confidence on how to leave and check out. The brewery is clearly a nice place to have on your doorstep for a quiet beer when required. Overall a great stay and we will be retuning at some point.

The Stables - Burley, New Forest
I stayed at the Barn for three days with my parents and toddler. The barn was exactly how it is described and seen in the pictures. It was a lovely open space for dinning and relaxing. Good size rooms and handy having the two bathrooms. Extra touches like the bread, eggs, milk and chocolate was a lovely welcome. The New forest is right on the doorstep! We were able to see the Beautiful Sunset which was a very short walk. There is So much to explore, we will need to come back. Sadie was really good and responsive to my messages and gave great advice about where to go. We had a lovely time. Thank you. We would definitely recommend staying here.

Cosy garden cabin in the centre of Wareham
A cosy and clean cabin with comfortable sofa bed & powerful shower. Quiet location for sleeping & convenient off street parking. Within easy walking distance of the high street with many pubs, restaurants & amenities. The hosts were friendly & welcoming. I would recommend this accommodation.

The Author's Retreat New Forest
Cosy hideaway in a beautiful and incredibly peaceful location, with horses roaming on the adjacent village green, which was a lovely surprise. Very clean and an extremely comfortable bed! Lots of great touches, such as the pots of yoghurt, granola and honey. The garden is small but stunning, and the village couldn't be prettier, with a friendly pub over the road. Great hosts who always answered queries quickly. EV charging was a useful bonus too. Highly recommended!

A spacious home from home in North Dorset
Great communication, have booked another visit!

Milkwell’s heavenly place
A wonderful studio to stay and enjoy the delightful countryside which is on your doorstep. I’d highly recommend staying at Poppy’s studio.

Beautiful rural retreat, outskirts of Swanage
We had a wonderful weekend here and can highly recommend it. William and Charlotte were so welcoming to us and our dog! The welcome pack was fabulous, we could not have asked for more and the cottage is very well equipped and spotlessly clean. Walks directly from the property are stunning , we certainly plan another stay here one day soon. Just loved it.

Delightful barn in scenic North Dorset
Andrew and Janine were lovely hosts. They left a very generous tray of welcome goodies from local sources which I was very grateful for and Andrew gave me some great recommendations for activities while we were there. It was a beautiful and peaceful stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Thank you

Newly converted hilltop Chapel
We’ve just come back from a lovely long weekend staying in Gina’s beautiful converted chapel. The property is very tastefully designed and felt very much like a suite in a luxury country hotel. There are stunning walks and rolling countryside from the doorstep and Berwick St John is a very pretty little village. It was the perfect place for a relaxing weekend with our dog and truly felt like a home from home that we hope to return to again.

The Cabin At Beckheath Sleeps 2 (1 double bed)
A lovely quiet little base for New Forest adventures. Comfy bed, well equipped kitchen and a great shower. Thank you for a great, comfortable stay!

Cozy 1-Bed Annexe in the Heart of the New Forest
Enjoyed our week at the Annexe. A great base for exploring the New Forest and the surrounding area. Deb was on site when we arrived and was a great host.

Beautiful studio with direct access to New Forest
This 2 day trip surpassed our expectations! Beautiful accommodation in the most wonderful location. We loved the area and the walks around it. Sarah and Shawn were fantastic hosts, really friendly and gave us top tips. Walk to the local pub was a brisk 30 minute walk away across the picturesque new forest. I am already planning to come back and have recommended to my friends for their short break.
