New Forest cliff top apartment by the sea with distant view of the Needles

Come and stay in our fantastic apartment on the cliff top in beautiful Barton-on-Sea. Our apartment is named 'Stones Throw' as it is just a stones' throw from stunning Barton Beach which overlooks the Isle of Wight to the east and Hengistbury Head and Christchurch Bay to the west.

What's more it's on the doorstep of the New Forest National Park so you can enjoy both coast and countryside during your stay without having to travel very far at all.

Within a half hour drive you can visit picturesque Lymington with its maritime history, Hurst Spit and Castle, historic Christchurch and numerous beautiful destinations in the Forest with its freely roaming ponies, donkeys, cows and pigs and abundant wildlife and well as a great selection of stunning beaches.

You could even venture across the Solent on a day trip to the Isle of Wight from nearby Lymington.

If you want to stay put you can enjoy a delicious lunch at the Beachcomber Cafe just over the road or the Pebble Beach restaurant where th head chef is was a finalist in TVs Masterchef - The Professionals. Alternatively you can spend some time swimming or just relaxing on Barton Beach.

Our apartment is ground floor making it very accessible, and has double doors leading onto a patio and guests have use of the communal garden which looks out to sea. The main living area has a modern open plan kitchen, a dining table with four chairs, sofa bed and arm chair, plus TV with google TV.

You can see the famous Needles off the Isle of Wight from the lounge window. The bedroom is a good size with a double bed and wardrobe and there's a bright and fresh modern bathroom with a double sized shower.

There is a communal car park at the front of the building with enough space for every apartment to park a car and you can also park on most nearby side roads for free.

We do accept well behaved pets so if you want to bring them there is a £22 per pet fee (max of 2 - please make sure to tick the check box when you book to say you are bringing a pet and let us know how many)

Your hosts Ian and Jill look forward to welcoming you to Stones Throw soon.
