We have both given up successful careers in London since our twin boys were born in 2013\. We moved to the New Forest at the end of 2014 and just love welcoming guests to our beautiful holiday cottages. We have five cottages in total and welcome larger family or friend groups wishing to use multiple cottages for a special event or annual holiday together. We are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, with only a small holding as neighbours. Cross the road and you will find open heathland, forested areas, small rivers and plenty of wildlife. There are lovely of paths to explore for an early evening stroll or a proper hike. You can bring your bikes or hire them locally and explore the extensive off road cycle network in the Forest. Road cycling is very popular too and there are regular races held. There are plenty of pubs nearby which serve good food and serve good beer. There is a little village shop 2 miles away, and bigger supermarkets a little further away. You are more than welcome to get online shopping delivered after your arrival. You are most likely driving to the accommodation, although a taxi from Salisbury, Brockenhurst or Southampton stations is an option. A popular option is to cycle from the property, so feel free to bring your bikes. Alternatively, you can hire bikes from a number of locations in and around the forest, and many will deliver to your property. And, of course, there is walking directly from your doorstep, with miles of forest and heath to explore.

It is in a beautiful location, and was clean, quiet, comfortable and well appointed - with everything you could need. The owners, Astrid & mark, were welcoming and helpful, and it was nice to arrive to fresh milk from the local dairy and a delicious lemon drizzle cake. We were a family of 5 adults and 1 baby, and the accommodation. ##### Mark M.

We can look back at a nice and comfortable stay at the Tack Room. Nicely situated in the New Forest: just cross the street and stroll around in a beautiful landscape (don’t forget to bring your wellies). A very clean, warm and quiet place. Complete kitchen, but with limited storage space for a family of seven. Comfortable beds, but a bit too short for my length.wifi is fast (Starlink) and reliable. ##### Leense W. Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### monique M. 3 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Luxury cottage in the New forest Our group was 4 adults and 2 children (5 & 8) and we stayed in late May. The cottage was exceptionally clean and well decorated. The kitchen was well stocked and beds were comfortable and more on the firm side. The property is right on the edge of the New Forest and you can take walks straight from the cottage. We saw ponies everyday we were there without ever getting in the car. The host was helpful, friendly and answered any queries quickly. The nearby wildlife sanctuary is a good with kids, if you have them. Very excited to return here for another visit ##### monique M.

Astrid was very welcoming and quick to respond to questions and requests. We were a group of 7 + 1 baby staying in the Tack Room. There was more than enough space, whether it was for sleeping, eating, or lounging about. Astrid also provided a cot for the little one which was very handy. We split our time driving to places in Sailsbury and relaxing inside. It was 100% exactly what we wanted and couldn't recommend the stay more. ##### Katie O.

Lovely part of New Forest. Great walks. Well appointed cottage. Lots of space and great furniture and fittings. Nice touches like organic soap, eco friendly toilet roll, tea bags, washing up liquid etc. Spotlessly clean and fresh.Great position for touring round. We visited Peppa Pig World, New Forest Wildlife Park and Salisbury. All very accessible journeys.

The Tack Room is well laid out, well furnished and cosy with underfloor heating. It worked very well for us with a large dining table on which to play family games. We will definitely return. ##### Richard M.

Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jane-Marie M. 4 Nov 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### The location of High Forest Cottages is fantastic, our stay was perfect. Astrid was a perfect host. We used 'Tack cottage' as our base whilst attending a family wedding nearby. Having grown up near the New Forest and since moved away to Bristol returning for a weekend, to actually be able to stay within the forest, was a real treat. We had Deer bouncing across the road before arriving at the cottages and then actually saw them grazing in the field beyond.... The nearby villages are lovely and with It positioned nicely between Romsey, Salisbury and Southampton it was perfect for catching up with our family and friends. The Barn @Barford Farm was a great location for the Wedding of my niece. High Forest cottages the perfect location to be. A fantastic time was had at the wedding and a Beautiful relaxing experience was had in the lovely Tack Cottage... we could want for no more. Thank-You Astrid for a fantastic stay. Looking forward to our next time soon x ##### Jane-Marie M.
