Whisk your loved one away to this romantic New Forest retreat and ensure Poppy the puppy doesn’t miss out. This stylish, single-storey retreat nestles in enchanting 40-acre grounds, complete with 12 acres of parkland for the pup to bound about in. Other shared leisure facilities include a BBQ area, a hot tub and a tennis court. The one-bedroom cottage, which sleeps two human guests, is situated on the edge of the village of Cadnam, 9.5 miles from Southampton.
Follow Poppy up the step and into the entrance hall, where there is a WC, a utility room and a room for walking boots and dog leads. Make your way on through to emerge in a splendid, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with a high vaulted and beamed ceiling and an abundance of glass. This light-filled living area encompasses ample space for Poppy to pad about in, while you unpack any provisions and prepare a homecooked meal. There is a breakfast bar to rest at as dinner bubbles and a formal table and chairs for your romantic meal for two. Feed Poppy in the kitchen then sink back into one of the plump sofas in front of the Smart TV while she curls up on the sofa rug. Open the French doors on fine days so she can step outside into the sunshine with you. At the end of each fun-filled day away, settle your pet for the night then make your way through to your king-size bedroom, with its chic, en-suite shower room. Take Poppy to explore the private, enclosed rose garden or stretch her legs with a longer roam around the grounds. There is private on-site parking available here.
Plan a day out to dog-friendly Lepe Country Park, 15.5 miles away, with its various footpaths. Alternatively, take Poppy to enjoy the glorious colour of Exbury Gardens, 14 miles away.
