DAIRY COTTAGE. Delightful luxury rustic cottage nr New Forest and South Coast.



Welcome to Dairy Cottage, a luxury refurbished cosy one bedroom cottage that has been converted fom an old dairy, sleeping 2 plus small child. This lovely cottage is equipped to a high standard, oozing charm and comfort and offering a wood burner for the winter months. An ideal romantic retreat in the countryside with easy access to forest walks, beautiful beaches and quaint local towns and villages. If dates not available please see our other properties listed - Barn cottage, Shepherd’s Hut and Shepherd’s Retreat. Discounts apply for 7 night bookings. Please enquire for prices for 5 or 6 nights as we are unable to show discounts on this website.

From the entrance porch, which has a log and boot store, a door takes you to the hallway with one step taking you up to a wooden floored open plan kitchen/diner/living room with full sized cooker, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave, ample kitchen units, television dvd and log burner.

Also leading from the hallway is a door leading to a generous sized light bedroom with a lovely hand painted kingsize bed and ensuite shower room plus a walk in wardrobe.
