    Have a wild adventure with our New Forest holiday cottages

    The New Forest is as pretty as a picture, boasting some of the most idyllic countryside that England has to offer. Full of tiny, unspoilt villages that wouldn't look out of place on a chocolate box, and peppered with wild ponies and unspoilt scenery, a holiday in the New Forest promises relaxation and memories to be treasured for a lifetime.

    While most people tend to imagine the New Forest as a sprawling green landscape, it also has one of the most spectacular coastlines in the country. Whether you fancy topping your tan up in the summer of taking a bracing walk in winter, there are plenty of beaches and coves to explore. The coastal walk is immensely popular, and the New Forest Tour blue route will help you uncover all those secluded bays and saltwater lagoons.

    Our New Forest holiday cottages offer the perfect base from which to explore this dreamy part of the UK, with many just a short distance from the coast, giving you the opportunity to be beside the seaside at any time of year.

    From chic modern homes to rustic cottages full of character, choose a New Forest self-catering property and experience this must-see destination at your own pace.

    Why choose a New Forest weekend break or staycation?

    A holiday in the New Forest will leave you feeling invigorated and recharged. Rambling through wild woodlands, popping into charming villages, catching your breath in ancient pubs, and marvelling at the wildlife as you stroll along bubbling brooks and streams are what New Forest breaks are made of.

    The New Forest is a National Park which covers parts of Wiltshire, East Dorset, and Hampshire, and there is so much to see and do.

    There are many beautiful towns and villages to visit and stay in the New Forest. Lyndhurst is known as the capital of the area. The main street is lined with pretty shops and tempting restaurants and cafes. Just outside of Lyndhurst is the amazing Bolderwood Deer Sanctuary, where you can spot deer and other wildlife throughout the year.

    For car lovers, make sure you visit Beaulieu, a picturesque town that wouldn't look out of place in a storybook. Beaulieu is home to The National Motor Museum, and car enthusiasts flock here to see vintage motors, the World of Top Gear, and much more. There is also the historic Palace House to see, which is well worth a visit.

    Lymington is a lovely place to stay for quintessential seaside vibes. It's a smart and stylish town filled with cobbled streets, Georgian architecture, and a gorgeous harbour. If you're visiting in the summer, make sure you take a dip in the famous seawater baths.

    For more seaside fun, stay in the instagrammable town of Milford-on-Sea. It's ideal for a dose of serenity, spotting the colourful beach huts, and exploring the incredible Hurst Castle, established by Henry VIII.

    No trip to the New Forest is complete without seeing the famous wild horses, ponies, and deer, and the best places to spot them are in Burley and Brockenhurst. This beautiful village of Brockenhurst is well-known for its local hotel The Pig, excellent collector's fair, countryside charm, and wild ponies and deer that roam the streets. Burley is idyllic and the home to all things equine. You can spot wild ponies, enjoy a horse ride, and join one of the forest trails.

    If you're travelling with the kids, you'll find plenty of family-friendly attractions to keep them busy. Paulton's Park is a brilliant theme park and home to Peppa Pig World. For animal lovers, visit the New Forest Wildlife Park, the New Forest Reptile Centre or Marwell Zoo and see how many animals you can meet. For a farmyard adventure, head to Longdown Activity Farm or Dorset Heavy Horse Farm Park.

    There are lots of gorgeous gardens and parks to discover in the New Forest. We love Lepe Country Park for taking in the panoramic views, walking along the enchanting coast, and relaxing in the wildflower meadows. Exbury Gardens is another attraction to add to your itinerary. The floral displays are spectacular (especially in the spring) and the little ones will love riding the miniature steam railway.

    We've only scratched the surface when it comes to what to see and do in this exciting destination. To experience the wonders and beauty for yourself, book one of our New Forest holiday cottages and have your own wild adventure.

    Our New Forest accommodations come in all shapes and sizes, from cute and cosy cottages perfect for a romantic weekend away, to sprawling manor houses ideal for families or large groups of friends.

    What our customers say about their holidays

    • Rebecca - Verified booking

      The property was excellently located; a short walk into Lymington and with pubs (the Borough Arms and the Monkey Brewhouse) located at the end of Lower Buckland Road.

      The property was exceptionally clean - very high standards maintained with this. The beds were also extremely comfortable, the kitchen was extremely well equipped also. The downstairs area was really useful for cooking and then bringing to the table - this also has a small portable radiator which was extremely useful in the cold weather and where the conservatory looses heat very quickly. The modern interiors were lovely and the sunny extension was wonderful, even in rainy weather. There's plenty of storage space and the rooms have their own bathrooms which was extremely handy. The information packs were very thoughtfully laid out and had everything that we needed during our stay, including useful pointers on local places of interest. There were a few aspects that could use improvement. When we arrived the whole property was extremely cold and we had to leave the heating on for a long time for the property to heat up which was probably less than economical. There was a small portable radiator which did help but it might have been useful to have this on a remotely controlled timer for out of season guests to make sure it's not so cold on arrival but still make cost savings with it being switched off when empty. The first floor bathroom had an air evacuation flap which was loose and kept banging in the wind all through the night and also the shower temperature control was extremely difficult to control - stiff and very sensitive! In the top bedroom, we noticed half way through (as we weren't using that level) that the light was left on in the bathroom, probably during cleaning between residents. This is probably me being overly fussy as the kitchen was otherwise very well equipped, there wasn't an espresso machine which is usually found in most holiday properties (there was a french press though!). Finally, the cleaning supplies were quite limited (dishwasher tablets - we did leave some for the next guests which we purchased) and the cloths weren't really able to make sure we could wipe down properly before we left as requested in the check out pack. For future residents, I'd just be aware that the staircases are very steep. We attended with our dog and the poor thing did fall a couple of times because it was quite steep. Additionally, the garden isn't really very dog friendly, we were advised the back of the garden isn't fully enclosed which is fine. However, there is no grass and most dogs usually will only want to go on grass so if you are bringing a pooch, you might want to take them to the grassy patch a minute from the property in order to toilet.

    • Jo - Verified booking

      This property is really nicely decorated and equipped.

      It has parking (probably easiest for one car only due to the telegraph pole) and is only 5 minutes walk into Lymington. We have stayed several times due to it's convenient location near to a relative. There are just a couple of niggles though. One is that the temperature for the shower in the top room can't be turned down more than a degree as the mechanism is jammed. So, if you don't like very hot showers you have to use the other ensuite. That is inconvenient and bot always possible. We have mentioned this before in a private message to the owners via Sykes cottages but it hasn't been dealt with, which is a shame. The other thing is that there are no instructions for the TV and BT box so it is difficult to work out how to use it. Finally there was no welcome pack which is very unusual. Just a small pack with some essentials like bread and milk, biscuits or a bottle of wine is common and makes your guests happy. If these things were sorted out then it would definitely means 5 stars across the board.

    • Stuart - Verified booking

      Weeds growing out of front drive + old car tyre leaning against fence didn’t give the place a good feel on arrival.

      The glass roof on living room I don’t think had been cleaned inside or out for quite sometime making it an eyesore.(really dirty outside full of spiders and cob webs inside) The garden was overgrown and full of weeds and the outside furniture not clean or used for sometime. Don’t think it was really a dog friendly place the garden was to small, lucky there was a park near by. Shower on first floor was blocked water didn’t drain and most skirting boards were covered with dust don’t think they had been cleaned for sometime very disappointing for a place that was advertised as 5 star?

    • Alison - Verified booking

      We had a fantastic week at Forever Summer.

      The property is exactly like the pictures - clean, comfortable and tastefully furnished. The garden was lovely for relaxing in. The house is a short walk from the centre of Lymington with its wide range of shops and restaurants. We ate out every night and especially recommend The Monkey Brewhouse, Eat Pizza, The Sail Inn and Ship Inn. The house is also within a short drive of many lovely places, with the Isle of Wight ferry close by. We definitely recommend Forever Summer and would love to stay there again.

    • Jill - Verified booking

      Forever Summer has a lovely tranquil ambience, but is let down by some easily fixed issues.

      The kitchen isn't very well equipped- eg no bread knife There is no guest book- I love to read other guests views, eg good places to visit, eat with dogs Though dog friendly, could be much better eg, recommend local places to walk without getting in car (Buckland Ring was lovely and within 10 mins), and dog friendly beaches. Also I think it would be very easy to dog proof the garden - just not the will No welcome pack- I can't remember the last place that didn't bother with at least milk, and more.

    Frequent questions

    • How many days do you need for the New Forest?

      To experience the highlights of the New Forest, a minimum of two to three days is recommended. However, extending your stay to four or five days allows for a more immersive experience, with the opportunity to explore additional activities and attractions in the area.

    • Which area is the best to stay in New Forest?

      The best area to stay in the New Forest largely depends on your preferences and the activities you plan to engage in. Popular towns and villages within or near the New Forest include Lyndhurst, Brockenhurst, Lymington, and Beaulieu, each offering their own unique charm and proximity to different attractions and amenities.

    • Where is the best place to see the ponies in the New Forest?

      To increase your chances of seeing the famous New Forest ponies, there are several areas within the New Forest National Park where they can often be found. Beaulieu Heath, Bolton's Bench in Lyndhurst, and the surrounding areas of Brockenhurst are popular spots to encounter the ponies. These locations provide open heathland and grassy areas where the ponies graze freely. However, it's important to note that the ponies roam throughout the New Forest, so sightings can occur in various places.

    • Do you need a car in New Forest?

      The best way to explore the New Forest National Park is often without a car. With convenient train access, you can easily arrive at villages like Brockenhurst, Sway, and Ashurst, from where you can embark on delightful walks or bike rides to immerse yourself in the beauty of the park. This allows for a more eco-friendly and enjoyable experience, while also enabling you to access areas that may be less accessible by car.
