About this property
Stay tucked away on the edge of the New Forest, offering a peaceful escape surrounded by nature and abundant wildlife. Just a short drive away, you’ll find scenic walks, longer hikes and memorable bike rides through this unique landscape, where wild ponies roam freely and birdlife – including buzzards, owls and swallows – fills the skies. Only 5.5 miles away, Lyndhurst, often considered the heart of the New Forest, provides a perfect base for exploring a wide range of trails, including the Lyndhurst Parish Walk and the popular cycling route between Lyndhurst and Brockenhurst (9 miles), known for its welcoming country pubs and charming surroundings. For a change of scenery, the vibrant coastal city of Southampton is just 7.5 miles away.
This hand-built shepherd’s hut is full of character, with cosy touches and thoughtful details throughout, while offering a surprisingly spacious retreat for two. Inside, the open-plan living area includes a well-equipped kitchenette for preparing simple meals, alongside a dining table for two positioned beneath the window to make the most of the views. A charming wood burner creates a warm and relaxing atmosphere, perfect for unwinding at any time of year. The large king-size bed, accessible from both sides, provides a comfortable place to rest, while a separate en-suite bathroom features modern fittings, including proper plumbing and a spacious electric shower.
A few steps lead down to the enclosed garden, where you can relax and enjoy views across surrounding fields with grazing livestock. The outdoor space includes seating, a BBQ and a fire pit, ideal for al fresco dining and evenings under the stars. Ample private parking is available on-site for added convenience.
