"This is a lovely property, ideally situated for exploring Dorset and the New Forest."
Our boys and dog thoroughly enjoyed the spacious house and garden, in particular. The house was very comfortable & there was everything we needed & more in the kitchen. On our first day we found that the television in the snug didn’t work. It switched off intermittently & the next morning unfortunately did the same. The contact number given by Sykes was for a company that looks after the property on behalf of the owners. My husband left a message, but didn’t hear back so had to chase them up later in the day. We were told someone would go round to look at the television the following day. Having returned to the house we were unable to tell whether anyone had been in, so again rung that company. They said they spoke to the maintenance person who thought the tv probably needed replacing. They’d also spoken to the owners, who said they’d been there the previous week & it was working ok then. We were asked to video what happens to the television, which we did & this was emailed to that company again. We never heard back from them or the owners, so felt the duty of care was lacking. Having a second television wasn’t the end of the world, but it meant one room in the house couldn’t be used, as intended. Our biggest disappointment was in having to spend part of our holiday chasing up an issue & not getting it resolved. It would also have been nice to have heard from the owners at some point, even if only to apologise for the inconvenience. We understand that they aren’t local, so you lose an element of personal touch but at least this issue wasn’t anything major.

"A lovely house in a great location."
-
"The property was well equipped, comfortable and clean."
The downsides were: a high step from a slope to the front door step with no handhold very limited space in both bathroom and WC low headroom when using the stairs - we have bruises as mementoes. We would have preferred the privacy of net curtains or similar in the bedrooms.

The property
This magnificent, semi-detached holiday home sits in the charming market town of Lymington, walking distance from the beautiful New Forest.
Enjoying the luxury of an enclosed garden with games shed and off-road parking, Curlew Cottage offers a wonderful base for families and friends, whatever time of year.
The open-plan living area is sure to be a social hub, uplifted by natural lighting from the bi-fold doors, with a splendid seating area where you can catch-up on your favourite shows on the Smart TV.
Sit at the dining table and keep the chef company whilst they prepare a delicious meal, utilising a range of appliances including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge, dishwasher and even a washing machine, so you’ve got everything for a week away!
If you fancy a little quiet space, get comfortable in the snug.
The enclosed garden at this Lymington cottage is excellent, offering ample seating for alfresco dining, a barbecue for the summer and a large shed which doubles as a games room, boasting a multi sports table with table football and pool.
Your nightly routine can begin in the bathroom, with choice of bath and shower over, before choosing between three sumptuous bedrooms to catch your rest, including a king-size, double and twin, offering plenty of flexibility.
Lymington is a bustling market town with plenty of things to do; from April to September, the 110m sea pool is a popular choice with families, wander along the marina and take in hundreds of glistening yachts and boats or visit the St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery and learn about the history of the local area.
There are a variety of shops in the town, ranging from well-known high street names to independent boutiques, plus a busy Saturday market selling fresh produce and goodies.
Lymington has the best of both worlds when it comes to walks; situated on the edge of the New Forest, you may opt to stroll alongside the ocean or head inland to discover the trees and open heathland of the New Forest.
Curlew Cottage ticks all the boxes for a memorable stay in Hampshire.
Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
