Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 2 - Fordingbridge (1.5mls E), Hampshire

Known locally as the gateway to the New Forest, this home is tucked away in a fabulous spot which allows guests to revel in the natural beauty of the national park. The rare blend of open heathlands and ancient woodlands combined with extensive gravel paths make this ideal for walkers and cyclists to enjoy eye-catching scenes on every trail, and why not bring those four-pawed friends to enjoy these too? In addition, guests will also have an easy opportunity to take trips to historic market towns such as Ringwood (7.5 miles) and Salisbury (12.5 miles), offering an array of fantastic shops, cafés and restaurants.

There is the convenience of four pubs within a mile, all serving delicious food to enjoy. Upon entering this home, you will immediately notice the unique nature mural design which spreads throughout the property. First off, you will come to the open plan lounge/kitchen/diner which has everything you need including an electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher, and coffee machine which you can use to make a warming morning brew to enjoy at the breakfast bar.

Making your way through to the lounge space, you will find two stylish sofas, a Smart TV and a wood burner (kindling and logs provided). There are even some handy dog towels here to clean off pets so they can fully relax too. Moving through the hallway will bring you past the spacious bathroom complete with a bath, separate waterfall double-ended shower and WC, and finally onto the bedroom which screams comfort with a king-size bed and plenty of wardrobe space for guests to use.

You can make your way to the rear enclosed garden via the French doors in the lounge, from the bedroom or even a gated entrance to the left of the home. This outdoor space continues the theme of luxury with guests having access to their own private hot tub, outdoor seating, and BBQ on the patio space, and a grassed area too. There is also the added benefit of a shed where guests can store bikes when required.

There is private parking for two cars.
