We truly enjoyed our stay at The Owl House. A well maintained and lovely cottage in the beautiful countryside of Hampshire with lots of options for sightseeing in the area. As a family of 5 we had a great time!

Our 2nd visit to the owl house and it didn’t disappoint. Cottage clean and comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Large kitchen and dining area, relaxing lounge, comfortable beds and three toilets! Peaceful surroundings. Saw Mojo again and their friend Woolfie., and we were also visited by a deer in the garden on our last day. Will we visit again? I wouldn’t bet against it.
