This epic, sprawling national park is literally on your doorstep at Rockford Cottage, and you can start exploring various walking or cycling trails direct from Thorney Hill village. Stunning heathlands, forests, rivers, mudflats and saltmarshes cover an area of 219 square miles, combined of course with quaint and historical villages, and the most amazing English wildlife. The bustling and popular village of Burley is only a short drive (or long hike) away and features an array of pubs, cafés, and shops in a beautiful setting. Even closer is the village of Bransgore, just south of the property, which has shops including a post office, pharmacy, greengrocer and bakery. The village is also home to 3 brilliant pubs. The coastal town of Christchurch is a short drive and a lovely area to explore for its historical sites, shopping, eateries and parks near the waterfront. West Hampshire’s coastline is also nearby. For shoppers, the charming Georgian town of Lymington is fantastic for its weekly Saturday market and its many high street shops, supermarkets, and boutiques. It makes for an ideal base for many coastal pursuits, including yachting & sailing facilities, ferries to the Isle of Wight, and maritime historical sites. You’ll find Milford-on-Sea west of Lymington, which is a charming seaside village and the lovely Hordle Cliff shingle beach nearby. You can reach Henry VIII’s fortress Hurst Castle east of Milford; and west leads to Barton-on-Sea village and beach. Further along on the coastline at the Hampshire & Dorset border is Highcliffe, with its impressive Grade 1 listed Highcliffe Castle, and with steps down to the beach here leading on west to Avon Beach and Mudeford. Hengistbury Head nature reserve is accessible on foot or bikes, and makes for a great day out too — if you continue around this headland it leads you to Mudeford Sandspit and its iconic beach huts. Mudeford sandspit can also be accessed via ferry from the Avon Beach Mudeford Car Park. Heading west along the coastline from Christchurch, takes you first to Southbourne, then the cliffs at Boscombe Beach, and then to the many famous seafronts at Bournemouth. Further west is the upmarket Sandbanks, with its stunning sandy beach. A car ferry from here takes you to Studland — showcasing an incredible wild bay stretching miles to Swanage, providing easy access to the beautiful Isle of Purbeck peninsula and Corfe Castle. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach towels ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - No on-site parking available ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Separate dining area ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats and dogs only - Up to 99 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Concierge services - Housekeeping on request ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near a health/beauty spa - Near the marina ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Double-glazed windows - Garden - Housekeeping (on request) - Recycling - Unit size: 960 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/39000000/38450000/38442300/38442206/f6bef61e.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Luxury 5\* Cottage | New Forest | Family | Friends Redlynch - Kitchen - Washing machine - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 7 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-17&endDate=2026-04-18&selected=38442206&PinnedHotelID=38442206&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-17&endDate=2026-04-18&selected=125472577&PinnedHotelID=125472577&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=125472577,38442206) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 4:00 PM Contactless check-in and check-out are available Minimum check-in age - 21 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM Contactless check-out ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets are allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming dogs and cats only 1 total (up to 99 kg per pet) ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking is not permitted ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed On-site parties or group events are strictly prohibited Long-term renters welcome Host has indicated that there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property Host has indicated that there is a smoke detector on the property Safety features at this property include a fire extinguisher and a first aid kit This property has outdoor spaces, such as balconies, patios and terraces, which may not be suitable for children; if you have any concerns, we recommend contacting the property prior to your arrival to confirm that they can accommodate you in a suitable room This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.
