Happy hounds will have a ball at this out-of-this-world holiday home, a luxurious retreat for families and large groups of ten in the heart of the New Forest. Take the lead and walk for miles from the door, and return to a spectacular property with a huge garden where your pups can play to their hearts' content.

This expansive escape offers an open-plan family room, dining area, and kitchen combined, sure to be the central hub of your holiday. For the chef, an electric range-style cooker is complemented by a double fridge, and everyone can eat together at the generous table or sit at the breakfast bar for a snack. Enjoy the Smart TV in the elegant lounge, hide away with a book in the secret snug, or challenge each other to pool, table tennis, or darts in the games room. Little ones will never be bored, thanks to the fabulous play den, and pups are catered for with a spacious utility where you could set down beds and bowls. At bedtime, head upstairs to find five impeccable king-size bedrooms, two of them en-suite and one offering zip-and-link flexibility (can be made into a twin on request). Completing the interior is a fabulous family bathroom with a free-standing bath and walk-in shower. The outside is as impressive as the inside, featuring a large patio with loungers, a BBQ and a picnic table, a covered seating area, a hot tub, and a children's play zone. As humans relax, your canines will go mutts on the safely enclosed lawn. Private parking for four completes the picture.

From the historic coastal town of Lymington, you can head out on coastal walks or to the canine-friendly beach at Milford on Sea, or take a river cruise (dogs allowed) from the quay. Alternatively, spend days exploring mile upon mile of scenic trails through the idyllic forests, woodland, and heath of the National Park.

The property is large and spacious and very comfortable.It is very well equipped with pretty much everything you could want. We were particularly appreciative of the children's play area as we had two babies with us and also that we were provided with two high chairs and cots.

Absolutely gorgeous home with outstanding facilities-we relaxed as soon as we arrived. The house more than lived up to the photos and was really beautifully decorated and well equipped with two fridges plus a wine chiller, a very thoughtful welcome basket including dog treats and of course, the wonderful hot tub! The shaded outdoor seating area wasRead more very welcome and, although there were no children in our party, we loved the cute play area (and tried the trampoline!) Much fun was also had playing pool in the games room - the perfect house for a celebration gathering. The communication from the owner was excellent with lots of suggestions of activities and dog-friendly places to eat. We arrived early and had a light lunch at the Silver Hind which is just across the road. Two small minimarket shops are in walking distance and stay open until late which was also handy. A perfect, quiet and peaceful location. We definitely recommend! Hide

Our stay at Heather House was better than we could have ever imagined and we didnt want to leave.

This is a stunning house, and to a very high standard. The kitchen was very well equipped. Beds were really comfy. The games room was a great hit for everyone, and after a 5 mile walk from the house to Brockenhurst along the old railway line, we relaxed in the hot tub on return.

This is an absolutely beautiful house which fitted the needs of our multi generational group perfectly. It is very well equipped - everything we needed was there. Lori, the property manager could not have been more helpful.
