What our customers say about their holidays

  This cottage was lovely for a family holiday to explore Lymington, the New Forest, Beaulieu, and the Isle of Wight.

  For us, parking was easy every time required - outside the front door, which was framed by pretty roses. We got the parking permit arranged once we phoned the cottage owner, who picked up first time and registered our car details online at their end. This cottage was a real 'cottage' size, yet cosy, well- renovated, equipped and furnished with a nice 'sea/blue' interior theme. The stairs were steep, so we found that using the handrail was necessary. We found the mattresses were quite comfortable, and discovered the lounge sofa also proved to be a good sofabed. The area was very quiet at night. So, on our stay, we slept well. One evening, we relaxed and dined in the small sun-trap back garden surrounded by fragrant honeysuckle and tall evergreen hedges. In Lymington, we ate at the King's Head pub-restaurant. Their 'giant' fish & chips main dish was very, very good. A great stay.

  We found the holiday accommodation to be sparklingly clean and Covid secure.

  All the appliances worked well, being relatively new and modern. The bed was particularly comfortable and there was sufficient room to store our possessions. The owners were particularly hospitable - we enjoyed numerous conversations with members of the family. The property afforded us the opportunity to have privacy as well as the comfort of knowing that help was always at hand. We thought that the arrangements for eating indoors were somewhat cramped and the bar stools were rather uncomfortable to sit at for any length of time. We were aware that there was no wifi at the property - there is 4G coverage although this was sometimes less than adequate when we were indoors. It was a pleasurable stay with so many varied things to do in terms of outdoor pursuits. It is a beautiful part of the world, worthy of revisiting in the future.

  The outside seating area is so peaceful and overlooking fields and trees.

  Lovely sunny position and beautiful to soak up the sounds of nature. This cottage was so beautiful, high quality, spotlessly clean, light and airy. Far exceeded expectations. The family, including their 2 lovely boys, are so welcoming and friendly. Would definitely recommend this cottage to anyone wishing a refreshing, peaceful holiday. Excellent location down a quiet lane yet good for reaching all locations within the New Forest. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay. A very definite recommendation from me.

  I had a great week at Roughwood.

  The accommodation was situated in a pretty rural location and it was very private. The interior was beautifully maintained and it perfectly suited my tastes - very comfortable without being too 'fussy'. I used Roughwood as a base to tour the New Forest and I enjoyed a number of very good walks. The amenities nearby provided all I needed for the week and I left feeling very relaxed. I have holidayed with Sykes on a number of occasions and I can honestly say that Roughwood was up there with the very best.

  A beautiful self catering accommodation within stunning scenery just within the New Forest.

  Extremely clean and comfortable. Loved sitting on the terrace with the amazing views and would love to go back. Our only problem was we couldn't get the WiFi to work on our devices which made looking up attractions and booking trips difficult as our phone signals were poor. Other than that we loved the cottage and would love to return in the near future to this extremely clean, well looked after and stunning accommodation in such a beautiful relaxing and peaceful location.
