  The spacious apartment is just a few steps from the beach and offers a well-equipped kitchen. It’s perfect for those who enjoy cooking their own meals. The bright windows facing the sea provide sunshine during breakfast (weather permitting). During peak season, it can be quite lively outside the apartment, even late at night. The bedroom is at the back, but unfortunately, you can hear a ventilation system when the window is open. Light sleepers might find this disturbing. We kept the bedroom window closed at night and ventilated through the living room. The apartment is ideally located for long walks, with everything you need within walking distance. You can enjoy the smart TV in the living room or the smaller TV in the bedroom. The bathroom is spacious and well-equipped with both a shower and a bathtub. Overall, the apartment is in good condition, though you can see signs of wear from previous guests. The washer-dryer and dishwasher are very convenient, although the dishwasher’s drying function was broken during our stay and couldn’t be fixed. It still washed well, and drying by hand wasn’t a big issue. We would love to come back.

  This was our second stay this year at this quality apartment. It’s well equipped, ideally situated with excellent views of the beach, close to all amenities and has permit car parking. What’s not to like? Well.......there is some noise from the patrons outside the restaurant downstairs and at weekends live music in the evenings, which we could hear, but it was acceptable. However on the last weekend of our stay (11th and 12th October) it moved into full nightclub mode including some kind of “boombox” sound system obviously located just below the floor of the apartment. From around 8:30 to 11:30 the noise and vibration was tremendous, shaking the floor and windows. When it finally subsided the sounds of clearing up continued into the early hours. Not the best night’s sleep prior to having to vacate the apartment by 9:00am Sunday morning. I’m afraid, this time, we will not be back, unless something is done about the nightclub noise.

  It was a lovely property and we had a wonderful time.

  The location was fantastic and a great base for exploring the Hampshire Downs, New Forest and Dorset coastline. The only point I would like to make is that I think it was a little disappointing that we could not enter the property until 6pm on our day of arrival. I totally understand the current situation with Covid-19 and the extra cleaning that needs to take place but I didn't really feel that an awful lot of cleaning had taken place. Don't get me wrong, it was clean and pleasant but not entirely sure everywhere was sanitised. We stripped beds on departure, as requested, which was fine and this included bagging up duvets, pillows and towels. This would have saved the cleaner a good half an hour. Please don't see this as a criticism though or a lack of understanding on my behalf, it's just a little frustrating to lose a day of a much needed holiday. However, we would definitely return to this property.

• Guest's Review On TripAdvisor - Verified booking

  We have stayed in lots of cottages over the years and I must say that this is definitely one of the best.

  Everything was very clean and tidy. Everything we wanted was provided. The little kitchen is very well thought out and made cooking a pleasure. In response to a previous review I would just like to say that the extraction hood was clean and worked, the windows sparkled, the washing machine drawer was spotless!!! We all slept like logs every night and were warm and toasty - under floor heating being very effective. Beds very comfortable and the little twin room was perfect for our children (8 & 10) a little dark during the day but we weren't on the doorstep of the New forest to spend the day in bed!! Fantastically located for exploring and very private. WiFi / mobile service was a bit shaky but that suited us as we were enjoying our escape from normal life! We highly recommend these cottages and hope to return with extra family next time so that we can have both cottages and the centre area.

  We enjoyed our stay and our hosts were very friendly and helpful.

  The fresh eggs and cake on arrival were very welcoming. The barn was beautiful finished to a very high standard and was very spacious.The log burner warmed the area up very quickly and provided a very cosy atmosphere.There was lots of helpful information available regarding places to visit and restaurants etc to dine in in the area. Only a few minor points we would mention would be ,there was some traffic noise ( which had been stated in the write up about the property) which could effect some people sleep .For shorter people the bed is a little high,plus it might be worth marking the edges of the stairs as the steps too easily blend into each other and maybe be difficult for some to negotiate. Overall we would recommend the Stone Barn.
