The Coach House

The property is beautifully presented and comfortable.

it is ideally situated for getting to New Forest attractions, including Beaulieu House, Salisbury, Fordingbridge, Lyndhurst and Bournemouth. The Coach House is situated well away from the road and is lovely and quiet. We met the owner and she is lovely. We will definitely be looking to go back to this property in the near future to explore more of the New Forest.

Wonderful accommodation with beautiful grounds in a peaceful setting.

We had a very easy, comfortable week's stay in the Coach House.

It is in a secure place, not far from the main town. We found it a good base to explore the New Forest. The only caveat would be that the bedroom and bathroom in the eaves wouldn't be suitable for tall people (easy to bang your head). Otherwise the accommodation is spacious and comfortable, and we had a relaxing time.

We had a delightful holiday in The Coach House.

We were pleased with the spaciousness, the decor, the cleanliness and the beauty of the setting. In this remote location it provided a welcomed quietness away from the bustle of everyday life.

Great cottage.

Rooms were large and tastefully furnished, high quality furniture and equipment. (Everything re kitchen equipment that you'd need if you were self catering. We didn't we dined out!) All set in beautiful grounds of a large house just outside of Fordingbridge. A great place to stay!

We have stayed at many Sykes properties over the years, all of which have been very good, but this one was exceptional.

A really nice place to stay.

Lots of space, peace and quiet and a gorgeous bed. Recommended.

Absolutely loved staying here.

Very comfortable and peaceful. The garden is very impressive and the gardener is a very friendly chap who definitely earns his keep!

A wonderful place to stay, extremely quiet and in a beautiful setting.

One of the largest properties that the two of us have ever booked (and we always book somewhere with two bedrooms) and certainly has the wow factor. We explored The New Forest which was fun and went to Poole, Winchester, Beaulieu Motor Museum and Salisbury. There was nothing missing from the accommodation and we would certainly come again. A welcome hamper would be the icing on the cake when first exploring!

Lovely accommodation, set in rural surroundings.

Very quite, very clean and tidy. Kitchen had everything that you required and more .Love to go again.

We've stayed in many lovely properties with Sykes over the years& The Coach House surpasses most of them for comfort,uniqueness& beautiful surroundings!

Great base for New Forest area at any time of year. Look forward to future stays. Gill& Mike Nov 25

An excellent property in beautiful surroundings.

An excellent place to use as a base for exploring the New Forest and also a lovely place to just spend time relaxing in. It's very well appointed and lacks nothing. The hosts are very welcoming and will make sure your stay is good as it can be. Will definitely return.

What can I say?

The coach house is a quality property in all respects and deserves its very high rating. The approach road is quite narrow in parts and a little widening would help people like us who were using a quite large rented vehicle. In fact we were nearly hit by a large commercial van which came around a nearby corner too fast while we were barely moving! We were very lucky.

We very much enjoyed our stay in a spacious, well equipped cottage in lovely surroundings.

My umpteenth visit, we love the place.

Thanks Pippa and Hamilton.

This place is fantastic, so much so that we are almost reluctant to promote it.

We want to keep it all to ourselves! Everything about it is perfect. The kitchen is well equipped and modern. The lounge and dining area are delightful. The main bedroom is beautiful and filled with light. The highlight is the English country garden. We were there in August. There were peaches on the trees. The herbaceous border was amazing. This accommodation is very special. Just don't tell too many people about it! We have already booked to return in November.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Comfortable and private. Spotlessly clean. Beautiful property. Being picky but a garden table to sit and have breakfast at would have been a bonus. Fully recommend thankyou Pippa and Hamilton.

This was the best property we have stayed in.

It was so comfortable, beautiful. It had everything you could possibly need for a lovely holiday. I am extremely disappointed with my treatment by Sykes themselves. I sent them an email the day before I left for my holiday and am still waiting for a reply. This is unacceptable. I couldn't find a phone number to ask for help. Terrible service.

Excellent cottage in a super setting.

Very comfortable and met our needs for a good week away in rural Hampshire.

This is the second Christmas week we have spent in the Coach House while visiting family in the New Forest.

The Coach House provides spacious, comfortable accommodation in a beautiful and very peaceful environment. It is an ideal retreat which also offers a number of fine walks from the front door. It is very easy to communicate with the owners. Highly recommended!

Thank you for your warm welcome, the cottage was superb - really spacious, lovely furniture, super comfortable bed, beautiful garden with views over the grounds and excellent walks straight from the door.

It felt like such a treat to be staying somewhere so elegant. Excellent local pubs and only a short drive into the heart of the New Forest. We will certainly return!

Very spacious property.

Garden area very pleasant.We were only two but plenty of room for four people. A few more mugs would then be needed. Super quiet setting car needed as Fordingbridge nearest for shopping. Easy access to New Forest.

A beautiful property in a lovely area.

We had a small problem which the owners Pippa and Hamilton dealt with immediately. A lovely couple. Would highly recommend.

Wonderful accommodation in beautiful, tranquil surroundings.

It was our 2nd Visit and we love the place.

A lovely property in a very pretty and quiet location.

The Coach House was clean and tidy and had all the facilities we required. We hope to return for another stay.

Must rank as the best holiday accommodation and setting we have stayed in over many years of self catering, would recommend this property to anyone with mobility difficulties- first class.

Only negative relates to clothes drying facilities, would have liked access to a washing line and airer- not all items are suitable for tumble drying.

This delightful holiday cottage is ideal for the traveller with limited mobility the ground floor designed with the disabled in mind which was just what i required many thanks for a comfortable stay James

Best cottage we have ever stayed in.

Clean, comfortable and wonderful location. We will return.

The Coachhouse is set in loverly surroundings, very quiet and peaceful.

, everything was provided that we needed, and very secure.interior was of an high standard and comfortable. My wife and I had a great week.

We had a lovely week despite the gloomy weather.

The house was light and airy as well as being vey clean ,with everything we needed in the kitchen .We didn’t need to use the neatly laid wood burner as the rooms were all very cosy. We really appreciated the comfortable beds with their Egyptian cotton linens. Thank you to Marion and her husband for looking after us so well and sorting out the small issue we had very quickly.

The Coach House is a superb holiday property.

Spacious, well appointed and comfortable it sits in an idyllic situation which is quiet and secluded and yet within easy reach of Fordingbridge. We spent the Christmas week there and enjoyed some lovely walks from the house as well as time just appreciating the house itself. Highly recommended.

The Coach House provided brilliant accommodation in lovely peaceful surroundings.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week in the New Forest and tried most of the recommended village pubs (all excellent) and suggest the addition of the Royal Oak in North Gorley to the list. Thankyou Jill and Derick

Our second visit.

A beautiful location and a very comfortable property made up for the appalling weather this time. (September 2023)

Everything as advertised and more, Pippa popped over to see us once we'd settled in.

Its a lovely place and the photo's don't tell the whole story. My daughter loved it upstairs. Next time we are down in Hampshire Coach House will get my attention.

This was our fourth visit so it goes without saying we love The Coach House.

Comfortable, clean, peaceful, beautifully maintained and set in gorgeous grounds. Plus the ground floor accommodation is perfect for our elderly parent. Highly recommend.

We loved the Coach house.

It’s spacious and in an idyllic setting at the end of a choice of single track roads. You get used to them! The gardens are beautiful and lovely to relax in to a background of bird song.

The Coach House is wonderful!

Country Living at its best; luxury and comfy at the same time. Beautifully, tastefully furnished throughout. The underfloor heating made the colder evenings enjoyable and temps are easy to modify to your own expectations. And, the fireplace was especially nice in the evenings. The kitchen is spacious, well stocked...and it has a Washer AND a Dryer! The grounds surrounding your home are so spectacular you will feel as if you are living in your very own park land. We were sad to leave but look forward to our next visit.

A lovely property.

Beautifully presented. When travelling back to the coach house after a bright, cold day out in January, my daughter and I felt we were coming home. Easy to manage log fire made it even better. Would love to visit again.

Our second stay at The Coach House.

Such a lovely property, very comfortably furnished, well equipped and set in peaceful and beautiful surroundings. Our stay was made even more comfortable by the owner who has added extra aids to the downstairs wet room for guests who need a little more assistance. It made our stay extra perfect. I would definitely book again.

Lovely place, helpful hosts.

Very happy to recommend/ come back ourselves.

A beautiful house in a beautiful place.

Clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The beds are very comfortable with lovely soft bedding. The downstairs wet room was ideal for our elderly relative. The patio and garden are also very nice and a good place to sit and have breakfast or coffee outside or to relax in the sun. The local area has many villages and pubs. The Cartwheel in Whitsbury is fantastic and The Bat and Ball in Breamore also very good. We would have liked to have tried the Rose and Thistle in Rockbourne but it was closed when we wanted to eat there. We would not hesitate to recommend this accommodation

Thank you for another lovely stay.

Our third visit and we still love it! Ideal ground floor accommodation for a break with our elderly mother. Spacious, airy and extremely comfortable, all in a gorgeous setting. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful time at the Coach House which was just as described.

Fresh flowers on our arrival were lovely and we appreciated the use of the garden. One problem was the remote to open the entrance gate which was very frustrating and took numerous attempts to eventually work. I had hoped by mentioning it after we arrived it would be resolved. Thanks for two great weeks - and fabulous sunshine.

The property was exactly as described.

It was roomier than expected and comfortable. The heating remained a mystery and the Coach House was quite cold in the mornings but probably too warm in the evening. I did point it out to Pippa who said that the bedroom was always cold due to the high ceiling (not really satisfactory and that we should not touch the controllers. I did try but it made no odds. Blackout blinds in the bedroom would be of great value as it was getting light by 4.30 am. A book of comments from previous tenants would be useful especially with respect to places to visit and eat. There is a huge file of leaflets but most of them are out of date. The rusty patio set needs replacing, fortunately we took out own camping chairs. Overall a great property in a very quiet area.

Overall excellent accomodation.

Fresh flowers in property a nice touch and very comfortable and well equipped. Enjoyed the beautiful garden. Dishwasher definitely needs attention/updating. Down stairs bedroom and bathroom ideal for my elderly mother but was surprised no grab rail in shower area.

This property is wonderfully light and spacious, surrounded by beautiful gardens.

It is a very peaceful place to stay but within easy driving distance of local towns and The New Forest. The beds were very comfortable, the sitting room looked out over the gardens and the kitchen was huge however we found it was lacking in good quality equipment and needed updating. The fridge had no usable door pockets and the wheels on the dishwasher baskets kept falling off. There was no kitchen roll, clingfilm or silver foil which has always been provided in previous cottages we have stayed in and is always a nice touch. Despite these slight frustrations we had a lovely stay and would consider returning next year.

Very comfortable, clean, well equipped holiday cottage in a lovely quiet locality, yet only a few miles to the New Forest.

Would thoroughly recommend. Many thanks to the owners.

We had a very enjoyable week at the Coach House.

It was warm and comfortable in a lovely quiet setting. The accommodation was clean and well equipped with plenty of storage space and towels, although some of the kitchen utensils could do with upgrading and maybe the toaster.Great location for visiting all the sights around the New Forest and Dorset is within easy reach. N.B.The bedroom tv wasn't working during our stay and the living room tv seemed to have quite limited channels, however this may well have now been rectified.

This was our second visit to The Coach House and we would be delighted to visit again.

Idyllic, quiet setting surrounded by trees and gardens and extremely comfortable. The facilities are also ideal to invite the elderly mother-in-law to join. Thank you to Pippa and Hamilton for the stay and to Marion and Steve for looking after us.

Fabulous holiday home - cannot recommend highly enough.

Luxury stay in a gorgeous setting. Thank you to Mr and Mrs Greenwood and staff for making us feel so welcome and for looking after us.

Fantastic cottage and a wonderful location.

We stayed here as a couple but definitely enough room for two couples or a young family. Pippa and her staff were wonderful and really helpful, we will definitely be returning.

Our first time staying at The Coach House and hopefully it will not be our last!

A fabulous property in a stunning location, which offered perfect amenities for my sister who is a wheelchair user. Easy access, wide door openings and a lovely roomy ground floor bedroom and wet room. After struggling to find accessible pubs in the new forest, we ended up at The Cartwheel Inn on our last evening, just five minutes drive into Whitsbury. It was superb and we highly recommend a visit. Thank you Coach House for a lovely holiday which exceeded our expectations. See you next year.

Lovely cottage in beautiful grounds.

Well equipped with everything you could possibly need. Thanks.

Our stay at the Coach House far exceeded our expectations.

The house is superb in every respect: beautifully furnished and fully equipped; lovely decor (including fresh flower arrangements!); peaceful garden and patio area with all day sunshine. In addition, the cottage is ideally located with wooded walks on the doorstep yet within easy reach of Fordingbridge, Ringwood and the New Forest. The owners were very friendly and helpful. We would love to return.

The Coach House in Whitsbury is a wonderful place to stay.

The house is beautiful combined with the stunning gardens and such peaceful surroundings. The house has everything you need for a relaxing break. We were looking for somewhere where our children could have a separate bedroom. In this case they had a complete floor to themselves with bedroom and bathroom (which they enjoyed as much as we did). It couldn’t have been more ideal for us, and I am sure other like minded families. The beds are really comfortable and the place was extremely clean and had everything we needed for a lovely stay, Could not have asked for more. Many thanks for a fabulous stay…

The accommodation was a great base and totally out of the way.

The pictures don’t do it justice and the gardens and setting were great. The food at the pub in the village was also top class. We found plenty to do in and around the new forest. I would thoroughly recommend it.

The Coach House is comfortable, spacious and well equipped.

It is in a peaceful location within easy driving distance of shops, restaurants and places to visit. A perfect place to relax and unwind.

The Coach House is a lovely spacious cottage.

Very comfortable and clean. The kitchen is very well stocked if you want to cook for yourself. Beautiful garden and surroundings. We would definitely book this cottage again in the future.

We found the property very comfortable and spotlessly clean.

Being on a gated estate made it very quiet and we enjoyed our stay very much. Staff we spoke to were very interesting particularly regarding the local bird and animal life.

A wonderful stay in a wonderful location.

It’s a lovely, spacious and well equipped cottage. My only complaint is the garden furniture was extremely uncomfortable and because of that we were unable to enjoy the beautiful garden as much as we wanted to.

Lovely cottage so peaceful, in my opinion if there was a hot tub and a BBQ that will be the cherry on the cake .

A lovely tranquil location in very well equipped and comfortable accommodation.

Beautiful fresh flowers from the garden added to our enjoyment of the cottage. Would highly recommend.

The Coach House was extremely comfortable and exceeded our expectations.

It is in a delightful setting and gave us easy access to some wonderful walks, many from the house, and the opportunity to visit some delightful small towns and villages. We highly recommend it.

This is a very well appointed holiday home.

Set in beautiful private grounds, well off the beaten track and yet within easy access of the New Forest. We found this ideal for revisiting an area where we have spent many happy holidays in the past, and would thoroughly recommend it to anyone else wishing for peace and quiet. We will certainly be looking to book here again at some point in the near future.

We had a delightful, peaceful weeks stay.

The coach-house is situated in a lovely quiet area with a wide selection of footpaths within the immediate area. On initial entry we could see that a lot of care had been taken to present the house and make it welcoming. It was warm, light and airy and everything we could possibly require within the property was supplied. We will no doubt return in the future.

Lovely cottage, beautiful location and garden with excellent facilities

Our stay in The Coach House was wonderful.

It was very comfortable. We were greeted with little extras that are always a ‘delight’. Beautiful gardens. Fantastic scenery. Good communication (if needed). The surrounding areas are idyllic. The house itself was a joy to stay in. Would love to stay there again in the future. A. Pereira

Beautiful property very accessible to many beautiful places.

This is our first stay outside of our come since Covid, and the standard and cleanliness was outstanding. It felt like home from home. You will not be disappointed booking this. Pippa & Camilla, were very welcoming. We were left fresh flowers and plums from the gardens, where everything is grown. Just delightful and just what we needed. A real retreat.
