## About this property

### Wonderful Willow Cottage
This bright, airy cottage positioned on a quiet road offers easy access to both forest and beach.
The house has 4 double bedrooms (one with ensuite) and has been thoughtfully and tastefully dressed throughout with John lewis furniture and French connection sofas for your complete comfort and relaxation.
Suitable for families/gatherings and romantic getaways.
Fluffy 200 Egyptian thread count towels/nespresso coffee machine/open fire place await.
Enjoy an alfresco breakfast of hot croissants stuffed with butter and sweet cherry jam, pack backpacks with picnic treats, and head out for the day to explore the New Forest with its 140 cycling and walking trails.
Willow cottage, Luxury Holiday Cottage New Forest is hidden on the southern edge of the New Forest and makes for a cozy time away in the countryside, with comfort and luxury touches at its heart and lots of outside space for children to run.
Bi folding doors lead onto a decking area suited for alfresco dining and BBQs. The large garden overlooks shetland ponies and provide a wonderful outdoor space for children to run.
Enjoy life on a slower cadence to that of city living, moving only as fast as the lavender sways in the evening breeze.
In summer months enjoy barefoot walking to the furthest edge of the garden to say a sweet hello to the ponies, whilst enjoying a glass of ice-cold Rose.
In winter months cozy up in front of the log burner cup of steaming hot chocolate and enjoy wintry Country walks and fresh beach walks

#### Wonderful stay in idyllic location!
Brilliant stay! The house is large enough for nine people and has a huge garden. It has all modern finishes and everything you could want for a friend or family vacation. The location does require a car, but it's an easy drive to the local beaches and activities.

#### Wonderful stay in Willow Cottage
The property was everything we hoped for. Beautifully clean and well equipped with everything you would need. The house is in a lovely lovely location close to some beautiful villages in the forest and not far from lovely beaches. Some delicious brownies left for us on arrival which was a really nice touch. We would definitely love to visit Willow Cottage again.

#### Lovely stay at Willow Cottage
We had a good stay at Willow Cottage. Location ideal for getting to the new forest towns however wished there were more nearby forest walks. The cottage was lovely and garden a huge plus for the kids. Could be more child friendly as the lounge rug was slippy, a radiator box unscrewed to wall. But we were happy with the amenities overall. check in and check out no issues.

#### Great, spacious bungalow
This was the perfect place for two families to meet up. You can’t walk anywhere from the house but there are loads of places to visit with a short drive. The kitchen is well equipped, the rooms spacious and the house is very up together. The garden is perfect for kids running around but I get the sense that the neighbours have had a hard time with noise in the past - this is not the place for late nights and loud music. Not an issue for us at all.

#### Still owed money !
Such a shame that I have to leave a bad review. The cottage was fine and it was in a good location. We had a lovely time in the New Forest . However, I was overcharged and one month later I am still waiting to be reimbursed . I have called and emailed numerous times and have not had a response . So disappointed .
