Discover epic New Forest dog walks, Hampshire coast adventures and pet-friendly boat trips when staying in this marvellous Lymington apartment. The property is located right by the town’s quay, complete with spectacular views to take in whilst enjoying some canine company and savouring your morning coffee. Well-suited to any pack of family or friends, the property sleeps four guests and two dogs in exceptional standards of comfort. Look forward to cosy nights spent curled up by the wood burner, reminiscing on memories passed whilst Fido and Rover gently snooze in the warm embrace of the fire.

Put your best paw forward and head upstairs, finding this lovely accommodation choice split over two storeys. A dual-aspect lounge/diner with ample seating and delightful views awaits on the first floor. The kitchen is just next door, so you can stay in the loop of conversations whilst preparing delicious meals and serving up doggy dinners. The bathroom is right here on this floor. Two bedrooms, a king-size and a twin, are found upstairs. After a day packed with stretching walkies and tennis ball fetching tournaments, you’ll no doubt be eager to sink your dog-tired body into one of these extremely comfortable beds.

There are walks both long and short to be found close by, ideal for pups with heaps of energy and those who prefer to take it easy. A short walk will take you up to the Keyhaven Marshes (3 miles), a 500-acre vicinity of mudflats and lagoons that your pet can explore. A longer walk can be found in The Solent Way, an extensive 60-mile stretch heading east and west. Pop your dogs’ sea legs on and board a ferry for a trip across the water. The short boat journey to the Isle of Wight (5 miles) gives way to heaps of pup-friendly beaches and walkies adventures.

This is a lovely cottage in a great location. For those who may have mobility considerations, there is a need to consider the fact that the stairs are narrow and steep and without handrails.

Well appointed, comfortable, quirky old apartment in a great location right by the quay, we enjoyed our week here, with shops and restaurants right on the doorstep, and some nice coastal walks not too far away, as others have commented there can be a bit of noise mostly from the bin men early in the morning, but it did bother us to much. Thank you

Quirky, cosy and perfect location. It is a privilege to get the opportunity to stay in a property built circa 1680. Light and airy feel due to lots of windows. Perfectly equipped. The towels and bed linen were superb quality. Furniture was comfortable too. Easy to find and the parking permit is a huge bonus (reason we booked this property)

A perfect location to relax and slow down, while sitting to watch daily life on the quay side unfold. The apartment's living space was perfect, cosy and comfortable, with a very eclectic style. It felt like home for us. The position was ideal for going off and exploring the town and popping over to the Isle of White. We were very appreciative of thRead moree New Forest Parking clock, a real bonus, & an act of kindness from the owners. There are plenty of places to recommend & will return sometime. Hide

On arrival we found the access stairs were very difficult to navigate with having no handrails which made it difficult to use so after 15 minutes deliberations we decided to leave as the property was totally unusable for us. This meant we were unable to stay and came straight home.

A lovely, comfortable property. We appreciated being able to arrive from 3pm, particularly in December. We were also happy to find a good quantity of good quality toilet paper! It's amazing how many properties provide one roll of one ply loo roll. It all helps you feel that your comfort is in the mind of the owner.

Dolphin House is so quaint and perfectly located for exploring Lymington by foot and bicycle. The locals in the shops are so friendly. If you are an early riser youll love it. I only say this as to keep these towns looking so good, the towns infrastructure has rubbish collections etc done by 6am. You will most likely be woken up, just worth bearingRead more that in mind. Of course youll get back to sleep as the town doesnt really wake up with shops till 10am. Very Relaxing. Would definitely go back. Hide
