Enjoy a romantic getaway in this unique accommodation, with your trusty four-legged companion by your side. Set on stilts, this property really does have the wow factor, and thanks to its leafy location, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to walks directly from your doorstep. The beautiful New Forest National Park has 140 miles of tracks and footpaths through glorious woodland and over heathland, so get out and explore nature with your four-pawed pal.

This private hideaway amongst the trees offers peace and tranquillity in bucket loads; it will be impossible to leave feeling anything but relaxed. Reached via a flight of steps, the property is full of luxurious touches to make your stay extra special and the contemporary interior design cleverly incorporates a woodland theme, bringing the outdoors indoors. Snuggle up in style in the fabulous lounge area, with its vaulted ceiling and cosy wood burner – the perfect siesta spot for the hound. Alternatively, enjoy dinner alfresco on the enclosed decked area that envelops the property, whilst listening to the birds singing in the trees. The spacious storage on the ground floor is perfect for bikes and dog-walking gear.

Take a gentle 4.5-mile stroll along the riverbank from Beaulieu to the 18th-century shipbuilding village of Buckler’s Hard. You’ll feel like you’ve stepped back in time in this unspoilt corner of the New Forest, which is full of history and charm. Refuel in the dog-friendly pub or dine outside at one of the picnic spots along the route. The Isle of Wight is a doable daytrip from this property. Hop on the ferry at Lymington, 7.5 miles away, and spend the day on the island riding the steam railway, perusing the botanic gardens, cooing over the donkeys at the sanctuary and investigating the magical Shanklin Chine gorge.

Accommodation really different - very exciting being up among the trees! Very comfortable, spotlessly clean and well-equipped. Really enjoyed our stay. Even enjoyed a couple of breakfasts on the verandah, even though it was October - joined by the local robin! Welcome hamper much appreciated.

Idyllic cabin on stilts giving a peaceful atmosphere to appreciate the beautiful countryside surrounding it. Bucklers Hard & Beaulieu are both within easy walking distance to absorb the historic nature of both hamlets and take a river cruise or just chill with a drink. Returned home totally restored.

Comfortable and tastefully decorated with everything you need. Log burner was fab. We did have to keep overriding the heating and hot water timer as the cabin did get cold quite quickly in the absence of curtains and just blinds on any of the windows.

Nice location, very clean well equipped lodge however if you want a view you could be disappointed as only tree tops to be seen from the balcony. Bedroom small but feels smaller with the over powering wardrobes with cupboards you would need stilts to reach. However very comfortable bed, sofa and lovely little welcome pack
