The cottage was lovely and big enough for a family of four (including 2 older teenage boys). The bedrooms, bathroom and downstairs loo are spacious. The lounge and dining area provide a lovely space to eat, play games and watch tv together. The kitchen is compact but has everything you need. There is a spacious conservatory leading onto a lovely walled garden at the back. Good parking at the front of the house.In the village there is a local shop only a few minutes walk away, and in the other direction the local pub is only 5 minutes away. The pub is welcoming and seems popular with the locals and the food and service is good. Only a short drive to the lovely Lymington and Milford on Sea. Brockenhurst is only a 15 minute drive away and is also worth a visit and a good place to explore the New Forest on foot or bike. Nicky was very helpful and responded quickly to questions. There was also a small hamper with biscuits, bread, coffee and tea, with milk in the fridge when we arrived, which was thoughtful and welcoming. Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely recommend. ##### Melanie G.
