“We made the mistake of relying too much on the photographs of the property on your website.”

On the website the photos show a light and airy sitting area, in reality it was very dark. Sadly there was no private area outside for us to sit except for two extremely dirty seats alongside a dirt track where farm vehicles constantly created a dust storm as they travelled along the track. Also there was evidence of wasp nests which prevented us from opening windows. All in all it was a disappointing trip, we left the very next day.

“Another enjoyable holiday at Pond View.”

Weather a bit off, but didn’t stop us enjoying ourselves. Ed and Fiona always friendly and helpful.

- Mr Collinge, June 2019
“It was a lovely holiday .”

Ed and Fiona were excellent hosts.A good cottage to relax in peaceful surroundings .We loved the working farm and the New Forest with the ponies and foals.

- Mr Bullock, June 2019
“Cottage situated on a working farm, beautiful scenery, and lovely animals.”

Very quiet and green. We had to drive to find shops and pubs but no further than 2-3 miles so no problem. We would certainly book again and we would stay in Pond Cottage again. We had a very relaxing stay.

- Mrs Cameron, May 2019
“The peace and quiet.”

We were more than fortunate with the weather, but we were even more fortunate with our choice of accommodation ( which was mesmerising in its abundance ). We could not have chosen somewhere more appropriate for US. The facilities were beyond reproach - there was something for every need on a quiet holiday - a top class for comfort and cosiness in the cottage itself, but the owners on this working farm were effacive until approached, and then we were shown new lambs and new adoptions after untimely deaths. Local shopping and eating out were fantastic.A+++

- Mrs Lofthouse, May 2019
“We loved the accomadation and area so much we wanted to stay longer, unfortunately it was already fully booked.”

Ed and Fiona were lovely hosts and obviously look after their properties.

- Mr Turner, April 2019
“Very rustic cottage, perfect for exploring the New Forest.”

“Seventh visit to a Pond View.”

We love the farm and Ed and Fiona are always about to help with any queries or problems. Great area to holiday in with countryside and seaside both within easy reach.

- Mr Collinge, June 2018
“This cottage made a wonderful base for exploring the New Forest and surrounding area with the added bonus of being in a lovely setting with friendly owners.”

- Mrs Klassen, May 2018
“It was a fabulous place to stay.”

So welcoming and the animals on the farm were fantastic. It is a place we will be returning to next year.
