Communication with the host was good and very welcoming to have our pets staying with us. The cottage is in a great location for exploring the New Forest and surrounding areas.The property was very clean, with lovely showers and white fluffy towels. Good kichen supplies and loo roll, kitchen roll etc. Very useful utility room to use for our dogs food, and good size garden for them too.

This is my second stay at the property, the check in process was so straightforward. The house is exactly how it looks on the website, there is plenty of space for 4 adults and has a secure garden for our dog. It is lovely to walk into Burley to have a drink and dinner as well as having plenty of different walks on the door step for the dog. Will definitely be booking another stay in the future

Lovely cottage

A really lovely cottage and great location just a very short walk from the village and the forest. Great fully enclosed garden.This was our second stay here and we love it and the location.The beaches just a 20min drive away and lots of lovely pubs within a short walk or drive.I would say the cottage would benefit from some better kitchen equipment for example there was a couple of pots one which it's handle is close to falling off making it risky using boiling water in it, non stick pans with no non stick left and not many utensils.Next time I stay I will be bringing my own bits as it was quite challenging to cook with such a mishmash of stuff but would rather not have to do this.Also simple things like screws missing from door handles making it difficult to fully close the door without fear of pulling it off. Especially on the small bedroom where my 4 year old was sleeping.Overall a really great stay and will definitely be returning.

Great property in the New Forest

The cottage was a home away from home for our stay in the New Forest. Burley is a picturesque area with local shops and pubs a 5 minute walk away. Easy to get around to other towns, cycling and walking trails. Would recommend.
