Fabulous cottage - very clean and well presented, with very comfortable beds. Dog bed/bowls/towel all provided with secure garden & outside dog wash (warm & cold taps) were all very considerate extra touches. Lovely hamper with goodies on arrival made it feel even more of a special stay.

We had the best time at the Old Avon Cottage. Its a beautiful private cottage with a wonderful garden in a fabulous surrounding. The house and garden are both very well equipped and we felt extremely welcome. We enjoyed the hot tub, walkpaths and the pubs nearby. And loved the visit to the horses and cows. Would highly recommend it.

Lovely cottage with very well thought out amenities. Hot tub & BBQ setup ready for use, Well kept garden and secure for dogs. A special thank you for the lovely provisions that were left for us, a special treat! Very clean and well laid out property with 3 nice size double bedrooms. Our only issue would be the location with a 1 year-old baby as it Read morewas not very pram friendly,but we did think this would be the case in the New Forest and partly expected this. Lovely local pub which we drove too. Hide
