Brimming with character and comfort, this lovingly furnished, family-friendly getaway located in Milford on Sea offers the perfect base for discovering the beauty of the New Forest. The owner is conscious of the property’s carbon emissions, so it was built using locally sourced limestone and benefits from cork flooring and solar panels. The owner’s passion for the environment can be found in the paintings by local artists, and books about nature, sustainability, and creativity. The charming, traditional village of Milford on Sea boasts stunning sea views towards Christchurch Harbour and across to the Isle of Wight, as well as enchanting cliff-top walks and lovely beaches. Skim stones out to sea at the shingle Hordle Cliff Beach (1.5 miles), which is lined with colourful beach huts and benefits from breathtaking views across the Solent. Located at the seaward end of Hurst Spit, with spectacular views and plenty of open spaces for children to explore, Hurst Castle, a mile away, is a must-see for history lovers. Nature lovers can head to neighbouring Keyhaven (1 mile) to find plenty of bird watching opportunities in Keyhaven Nature Reserve at the Keyhaven Marshes, 1.5 miles away.
Through the welcoming entrance hallway, follow the warmth of the roaring wood burner into the spacious open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner to relax with loved ones at the end of a busy day’s adventure. Enjoying glimpses of the Isle of Wight beyond the rolling countryside, your stunning surrounding scenery never feels far in this light and airy space that’s bursting with character, boasting antique-style pieces and sumptuous, homely touches that add a true sense of warmth and charm. The stylish kitchen area boasts a wonderful kitchen island for sociable cooking. On a fine evening, slide open the sliding doors to the garden to make the most of indoor/outdoor living. You’ll also find a cosy snug area on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three bedrooms on offer, one king-size, one double and one bunk bedroom, one of which features contemporary en-suite facilities, which boast soothing neutral hues that ensure a peaceful rest. The contemporary family bathroom on this level provides everything you need to wash off after a day of exploring the local trails.
Make the most of your peaceful countryside surroundings by enjoying a spot of al fresco dining on the pretty patio in the enclosed garden, as children let off some steam on the lawn and in the children’s play summerhouse. Before bedtime, toast marshmallows over the firepit or enjoy a soothing soak in the hot tub, the ultimate antidote to weary walking muscles.
