Short break away for the family, while I was on a course

Such a cosy little cottage, had everything we need and was a perfect location for the conference I was attending. The area is stunning with lots of local dog walks as we took our Cockapoo with us. The beds were super comfy with beautiful, fresh smelling linen, as listed the stairs, are a little steep, but it adds to the quirkyNess To an old building. We would definitely book a short stay again. The host was very welcoming and had excellent communication.

A wonderful Christmas

James and I spent a wonderful Christmas time at the Sun Cottage. It has everything you can dream of: warm and elegant environment, nice garden, and quiet neighborhood. It is finely refurbished and equipped with the best appliances. The Cottage is in a fantastic location, by the New Forest and only a short stroll from the centre of the lovely Lymington. I highly recommend this accommodation.

Great location for exploring

Well equipped, comfy beds. Good shower pressure, but v small bath. Adjusting heating/radiators needs better explanations. Staircase as described!

Absolutely Brilliant

Just back from a lovely 3 night break with my husband and my dog. Property was lovely and clean, neat, tidy and had everything that we needed. Mick was great, as I only made the booking the day before, he was really helpful. The location was great for both the Forest and coast line. Would definitely go back. The only slight issue we had, was finding the property when we got there, as the adjoining property’s house number is visible, although the house name is on gate, it’s not very clear and could probably do with being replaced. Slightly disappointed on arrival, but more than happy once inside :-)

About the host

Hosted by Michael Fuller

Mick & Linda have always loved the New Forest area and purchased the cottage and used as a second home for many years. We could not think of a lovelier area to spend time whether a day out or holiday.

Why they chose this property

We chose the Pennington/Lymington area as it has the best of both worlds the property being within the New Forest National park but only minutes from the sea and the lovely Georgian town of Lymington. The property looks out over common land ideal for dog walkers with large play area for small children yet local shops and a pub are less than a few hundred yards away and within a few minutes drive all the unique shops, pubs and restaurants around Lymington are there for all to enjoy.

What makes this property unique

The property offers a very tastefully and comfortably furnished living space being fully modernised with all new double glazing and,central heating system. It also retains some original features being a Character Victorian cottage. There are both coastal and forest walks with many other outdoor pursuits on the doorstep. Also easy access to many other attractions in the surrounding area. Parking is no problem directly outside the property.
