Lovely stay at Brackenbury Cottage

We arrived early and Lisa was very accommodating. The cottage was charming, very clean and well equipped. Lisa had left a welcoming pack which was much appreciated and did everything for us to have a very relaxing stay. We highly recommend this cottage.

Excellent stay

Lisa's communication was fabulous. The place itself is a lovely cottage, very well equipped for its size, and in a great location for walking into Lyndhurst and accessing all that the New Forrest has to offer. Would recommend.

Sister’s holiday

The cottage was charming, very cozy, clean and extremely well appointed. We had everything there we could possibly need. We loved the aesthetic and the linens were top notch. It was a lovely home away from home for my sister and myself. Thank you so much Lisa!

Lovely Cottage in Lyndhurst

Brackenberry Cottage is located in the heart of Lyndhurst and provides a perfect location for discovering all the New Forest has to offer. It is clean and comfortable with a lovely garden area to sit in on a sunny day. Lyndhurst itself is a busy town and the location is in a busy area but despite that we really enjoyed our stay and being able to walk to the HIgh St and Bolton's Bench was a bonus.

Perfect base for the New Forest

All the five star reviews for this place are completely merited. It was almost better than being at home. Its a cosy cottage that is smartly done up and has all the mod cons you need. The kitchen was very well equipped, the beds were comfy and there were books for the children. It was a tonic to come back to our holiday home after a day out in the sun and rain.

Great cottage in a great location

Lovely cottage in a great location, 5 mins in one direction to Lyndhurst, 5 mins in the other into the forest. The cottage was beautifully decorated and well equipped. Lisa stayed in touch with lots of helpful info and left some great pub recommendations in the info pack!

Fantastic cottage in the perfect location

The cottage is excellent and very well kept. The interior is modern and cosy. The location is great for visiting all the attractions nearby. The only downside is the bathroom being downstairs. But overall I would certainly recommend staying here.

Lovely cottage

The cottage is conveniently located about a 5 - 10 min walk from Lyndhurst high street. Well equipped, spotlessly clean. A really nice cottage to stay at in a lovely location. Communication from Lisa (the host) was great. Would definitely stay here again when we are next in the New Forest.

Rundum zufrieden

Das süß eingerichtete gemütliche Haus im New Forest ist für einen Familienaufenthalt bis 4 Personen perfekt geeignet. Besonders toll war die Ausstattung, hier fehlte es an nichts. Kommen gerne in Zukunft wieder.
