SPECIAL RATES FOR AUTUMN & WINTER! Gorgeous country cottage in quiet location on the edge of the stunning New Forest, just 1 mile from the beach and close to the New Forest. Oak Tree Cottage is a modern barn conversion, beautifully renovated with wooden flooring, underfloor heating throughout, double-height open plan living area and lovely furnishings. It is a cosy and comfortable base after a day exploring the New Forest and lovely Hampshire/Dorset coastline. Set in open countryside on a private rural lane, it is a peaceful holiday location, but close to popular Lymington and just down the road from the beach at the friendly village Milford on Sea and stunning Keyhaven salt marshes. Start your day with the papers and a coffee outside in your private south facing garden (a real sun trap!) or in the modern kitchen/diner, with doors out on to the patio. After a day of beachcombing, sightseeing or cycling through the forest, sleep well in comfortable beds, between Egyptian cotton sheets. There is a stylish ensuite bedroom with king size bed. Perfect for small families or friends, there's also a twin room, with patio doors on to the garden and another bathroom with shower, bath, heated towel rail and towels. You'll find the kitchen well equipped, an outdoor table, chairs and cushions, for al fresco dining/relaxing. In the cooler months the underfloor heating throughout the whole cottage will keep you warm and toasty after a day exploring. There's a large TV and board games if you fancy an evening in. Please note that the garden is completely secure for your furry friends. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the house: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Dryer - Laundry facilities ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - Single level property - Stair-free path to entrance - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Housekeeping (on request) - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near the bay - Near the marina ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Sailing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing 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 - Deadbolt lock ### General - Housekeeping (on request) ## Similar properties ![Sun-loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/24000000/23270000/23268200/23268111/f7c010ce.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A beautiful cottage in the heart of the New Forest and a short drive to beaches Lymington - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 86 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=23268111&PinnedHotelID=23268111&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Terrace/patio](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33600000/33592000/33591925/a7e47abe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Character Victorian Cottage Opposite Common Land within New Forest National Park Lymington - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Outdoor space 9.8 Exceptional 132 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=33591925&PinnedHotelID=33591925&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/110000000/109830000/109828800/109828749/ff1540fe.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Daisy Cottage by NewFo rest Lymington - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Free WiFi 9.4 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=109828749&PinnedHotelID=109828749&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/96000000/95400000/95395600/95395596/4d653fe3.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Secluded stables with parking in grounds of home in the heart of the new forest Burley, Nr Ringwood - Pet-friendly - Free WiFi - Parking available - Kitchen 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=95395596&PinnedHotelID=95395596&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior detail](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/34000000/33320000/33311600/33311579/d1aa0acc.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charming 2 bedroom cottage in Lymington, very close to town, marina & sea walks Lymington - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 9.8 Exceptional 121 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=33311579&PinnedHotelID=33311579&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27130000/27123400/27123388/73c2b33a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 5\* Shorefield Park - Fantastic 3 Bed Lodge (Sleeps 6) - Private WIFI Milford on Sea - Pool - Kitchen - Pet-friendly - Outdoor space 9.4 Exceptional 106 reviews [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-10-20&endDate=2025-10-21&selected=27123388&PinnedHotelID=27123388&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34730000/34727300/34727263/1e9a6d43.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Prime position in Burley, New Forest National Park!
