Guests say

Lymington Lodge is a well-regarded property, praised for its beautiful setting and excellent location for walking and exploring the New Forest. Guests appreciate the peaceful environment, cosy wood burner, and the helpfulness of the housekeeper. While some minor maintenance issues and personal decor preferences were noted, the overall sentiment is positive with many guests expressing a desire to return.

There is no specific mention of cleanliness in the reviews, so it is not possible to provide an accurate score for this category.

The location is consistently praised for its beauty, proximity to nature reserves, local pubs, and walking trails. The sea wall walk and easy parking are also appreciated, contributing to the high score.

The lodge is described as cosy and perfect for couples, with a very comfortable bed and a warm atmosphere. However, some guests mentioned the sofa being uncomfortable and the lodge potentially being too hot in summer, slightly lowering the score.

While the wet room and kitchen are liked, there are several mentions of issues with the wood burner and a lack of kitchen lighting. The absence of a fire alarm or CO monitor is a concern. These maintenance issues affect the score.

There are no mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches provided by the hosts, so it is not possible to score this category. However, the provision of sugar, coffee, and tea bags is noted.

About this property

Lymington Lodge at Normandy Marsh is a peaceful coastal studio with walking and cycling routes right from the door. Guests stay here for the birdlife, the sea wall, and the quick access to both Lymington and the New Forest.

The open-plan studio includes a super-king bed, a small dining space, and a modern kitchenette with induction hob, oven, dishwasher and a compact fridge with freezer compartment. The walk-in rainfall shower makes it easy to unwind after a day outdoors, and the woodburning stove keeps things cosy in cooler months.

The morning sun deck looks towards the garden. Bikes can be kept just outside the lodge in a quiet, secure area, and many guests bring them for exploring the sea wall and nearby New Forest routes. Fast WiFi and parking for two cars make longer stays comfortable.

If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic abode, explore your local surroundings where you will be spoilt for choice for things to see and do - from pretty walks and charming villages to wild swimming spots nearby. • 2–3 minutes to the sea wall (sunrise/sunset, birdwatching, paddle spots). • 20 minutes on foot to Lymington (cafés, shops, marina). • Direct access to the Solent Way for walking & cycling. • Easy reach of the New Forest for woodland trails & wildlife. • Short ferry to the Isle of Wight for beaches & coast paths. Those seeking a bit of outdoor therapy can explore the beautiful New Forest National Park, home to miles of walking and cycling routes amidst scenic landscapes, plus there’s plenty of birdlife and wildlife to spot! If adventure takes you further afield, why not catch a ferry to the little island of Isle of Wight, boasting glorious beaches and seafront promenades for a sunny afternoon, along with historical landmarks and several pretty villages to visit.

Lymington is a picturesque market town on the west bank of the Lymington River, at the western end of The Solent and on the southern boundary of the New Forest National Park.

  • Hazel

    Lovely walks to local pubs for dinner in evenings. The gentleman who is housekeeper at the owner’s house on site is very warm and helpful. A lovely peaceful hideaway for a couple.

  • Richard

    Ideal location and lovely lodge. Welcoming and generous hosts. Hope to visit again.

  • Jason

    Very comfortable bed and great location. Amazing Shower! The sofa was the only very slight fly in the ointment - designed for style over function sadly and they could do with a foot stool too. But we had a lovely stay and would definitely return.
