Equipped with a hot tub, surrounded by the rustling trees of the New Forest National Park and boasting an open-plan layout, this romantic wooden cabin is the perfect escape for dog parents who enjoy nature and tranquillity. Take your two four-pawed friends to explore the nearby rivers, ancient woodland and windswept coast during your couple’s retreat.

Everything you need is in one neat space inside this detached timer-clad property. Muster up a special homecooked meal in the contemporary kitchen with contrasting light and dark cabinets, stylish hanging lights and a kitchen island. Light a candle and dine together at the intimate wooden table with seating for two. Continue through the room, beneath the vaulted wooden ceiling, to reach the cosy lounge with a spacious corner sofa which sits in front of the Smart TV and glass patio doors which look out onto the garden. Rest your head in the spacious king-size bedroom, which has a lounging area and doors which seamlessly connect you to the outdoors. Completing the inside of the property is a walk-in shower room. Outside, you’ll find a sheltered hot tub, BBQ, sun deck and furniture in the enclosed garden.

Continue towards the coast to reach the Normandy Marsh and Normandy Lagoon nature reserves (3.5 miles). Go for a dip with your canine companions in the dog-friendly Hordle Cliff beach (5 miles) or hire a boat from Lymington harbour (3 miles) for an adventure on the water.

We had a wonderful week at Brambles! The property itself was superb, and the location ideal for easy access to anywhere you wanted to go in the area, and only a few miles from the coast. Liz and John are fantastic hosts. We loved it, hope to come again soon!

Brambles is an absolute gem and I will be looking forward to visiting again. Beautifully furnished and equipped with everything you need. I have tried a few properties with a hot tub and this is exceptional. The owners are delightful and so helpful. A wonderful retreat for my birthday and I loved every moment.

We had a great week staying at Brambles with our 2 dogs. Liz and John were very helpful if we had a query. John even went so far as to make a ramp for our elderly Westie to get back onto the decking from the grass. Bed was lovely and comfortable, everything to a high standard. Really enjoyed collecting fresh veg from their sale table onsite.
