  • "Welford Barn is beautifully situated on the outskirts of Fordingbridge which is an excellent base for the New Forrest, the property was cosy with an enclosed garden, my only comment would be it could do with having a dustpan and brush for visitors to use and the pillows on the bed were very soft."

  • "November 14th - 17th… We had an amazing long weekend at 2 welford barns."

    It’s so cozy, warm, light and comfortable, everything you need. Fordingbridge is a pretty place to have a walk around and the George Pub is worth a visit. There are some beautiful walks near by, we walked from Froghan to Fritham, its about a 11k walk there and back but well worth it… It’s the perfect spot if you want to go to Salisbury as it’s just a 20 minute drive. We didn’t see the owners but we didn’t have the need to, so all good.

  • "Set in beautiful, peaceful grounds behind the main house."

    Holiday let was pleasantly light, airy & roomy with a nice little private & enclosed decked area. Well equipped, however could do with a dustpan to sweep up bits bought in from outside. Also, perhaps could consider adding a grab handle in the shower for use by people with balance/mobility issues.

  • "Very comfortable stay,great base for exploring the New Forest."

    Everything we needed was there,the only thing that would be a good idea,would be to put a mirror up on the road by the entrance gate,as limited visibility when pulling out of gateway.

  • "Title: Charming Studio Barn with Thoughtful Touches Date of Stay: February 16th- 21st 2025 Here are some highlights from my experience: Pros: 1."

    Comfortable Accommodation: The studio layout was well-designed with the bed at one end and the kitchen at the other. It was cozy and welcoming. 2. Thoughtful Amenities: It was lovely to find a pint of milk in the fridge and a couple of pain au chocolate upon arrival. The enclosed area just outside was perfect for my four-legged companion, Poppy and a bonus was the outsize light for her night-time wee! The queen size bed was a real treat. The barn was well equipped with everything you might need (even a hairdryer, and a torch). 3. Friendly Hosts: The hosts, Richard and Jo, were reassuringly close by, (the other side of the fence) and as I was travelling on my own it was good to know that I had neighbours. I appreciated Jo's welcome check-up message on Sunday evening too. Cons: 1. Location Confusion: The postcode initially took me to a property on a different road. I recommend using Stuckton Road in your sat nav or arriving while it's still light to avoid any confusion. 2. Shower Room Temperature: The walk-in shower room was a bit cold initially, but it warmed up nicely after the radiator was switched on. 3. There is a major road close by and you can hear traffic most of the time but it didn't spoil my visit. Overall Experience: My stay at 2 Welford Barns was delightful. It provided a cozy retreat, and the friendly hosts added a reassuring touch. It's close to so many other places: we visited the New Forest, Boscombe, Highcliffe and Wimborne. I would recommend this studio barn to anyone looking for a dog friendly relaxing getaway. Rating: 4.5/5 stars

  • "Lovely spot that was walking distance to quaint village with cofffee, food and groceries."

    20 min drive down to the coast was great. The cottage definately needs a more comfortable bed and pillows. Ceiling needs a good clean as quite alot of cobwebs and spiders.

    Thank you very much for your feedback. Cobwebs and spiders have been cleaned away. Sorry you found the bed and pillows uncomfortable. The beds are standard hotel beds and only 6 mths old. The pillows are wipeable for hygiene reasons so they do tend to be a bit puffy. Thanks again Jo Property Owner
