Holiday Cottages in the New Forest

Self-catering holidays in the New Forest

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, our New Forest cottages offer the perfect base from which to explore this dreamy part of the UK.

While most people tend to imagine the New Forest as a sprawling green landscape, it does also sport 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. Many of our New Forest Cottages are a short distance from the coast, giving you the opportunity to be beside the seaside at any time of year.

Best locations near the New Forest

Many of our holiday cottages in the New Forest are ideal for anyone looking to get away from it all and enjoy some quiet time. With such a beautiful backdrop, you only have to step out of the front door of your cottage to soak up the ambience. Here are just some of our favourite locations for New Forest cottages:
