    This was our second stay at the bothy, and again it was just what we wanted, very clean, comfortable, and a very nice welcome pack. Another very enjoyable stay, and hope to be back again. Thank You.

    For us this is the third time we have stayed there , it's a lovely little cottage and is right in the heart of the new forest very well placed for exploring the area .

    Everything we needed for an active week in the New Forest. The garage to store the bikes was a big bonus. Location perfect.
  • Susan

    Great location to walk to the village in minutes. Spacious and very well furnished. The owners clearly take great pride in their property and even provide milk, butter, marmalade and wine, which we needed after braving the Friday evening...

    The cottage was extremely clean, cosy and comfortable. The owners have thought about everything you would need. The location couldn't be better for a stay in the New Forest.

The Bothy is a quiet cottage set within two acres of communal grounds just a few minutes walk to Lyndhurst's busting high street in one direction and the open forest of Bolton's Bench in the other.
Lyndhurst is the capital of the New Forest with a fine selection of shops, cafe's and restaurants, the stunning New Forest is literally all around just waiting to be discovered.
