About this property
A detached timber lodge, quietly situated within the award-winning family-friendly Shorefield Country Park, only 1.5 miles from Milford on Sea on Hampshire's lovely coast. The lodge provides comfortable, open plan holiday accommodation, furnished and equipped with everything you need to create a really pleasant family holiday experience. There's plenty of room for your whole group to relax and dine, whilst the fitted kitchen comes fully equipped to prepare delicious meals and snacks, and a dishwasher to relieve you from the washing up afterwards! Outside is a private decked patio where you can sit out and plan your day's activities. Should you wish to take advantage of the many leisure activities on offer within the park, you can contact the owner to purchase a pass prior to arrival which gives access to the indoor and outdoor pools, gym, restaurant, bar, and seasonal entertainment, as well as play areas for the younger members of your group.
Fishermen will love the well-stocked carp lake which is just a minute's walk away, plus there are many opportunities for sea fishing along the coast. When you tire of all on offer within the park, venture out and enjoy a picnic in the nearby New Forest National Park, take the ferry from Lymington to the Isle of Wight, walk the coastal path to Lymington, enjoy the nightlife of Bournemouth or just take your buckets and spades and walk down to the beach at Milford on Sea. Then, after all the excitement, return to your homely lodge for refreshments before you snuggle up in the cosy beds.
A comfy holiday base for the whole family to enjoy.

We have always had an enjoyable stay and it is in a perfect location, especially for our four legged friend as close to the beach for his morning walks! We found the Lodge clean and comfortable, and will be returning in the future for sure.

Kitchen facilities are good with plenty of crockery / cutlery / pots and pans etc. We were thankful of the 2 fridges but their freezer compartments could have done with being defrosted as they prevented the freezer doors from being properly closed. The beds were comfortable, with plenty of storage in the bedrooms. We just felt the corners of the rooms could have benefitted from more attention - removal of cobwebs and dust. Likewise, time spent on the balcony would have been more pleasant if it had been free of the countless cobwebs, as there is plenty of seating/ table space provided outside. The cabin is situated in a quiet spot on the site. We were thankful of the opportunity to purchase the site's leisure facility pass at a special rate, as we felt the facilities on offer do not merit Shorefields' full fee.
