Description
West Tytherley 3.2 miles.
Resting in East Dean near Lockerley in Hampshire is The Dunnit@Manor Farm, a characterful farm building conversion, inviting up to six guests.
It sits adjacent to the River Dun, a tributary of the River Test, and fronts directly onto the National Cycle Network Route 24. Near both the New Forest National Park and located between the historic cathedral cities of both Salisbury and Winchester and just north of the market town and abbey of Romsey, the property offers the ideal base for a countryside getaway, enjoying a riverside position, pretty gardens, original beamed ceilings, and flexible sleeping arrangements for both families and friends.
Park up in the shared gravel courtyard, also home to an EV charging point, before entering the homely sitting room, where you can relax after a day of adventure.
Continue through to the well-equipped kitchen/diner, perfect for rustling up and enjoying brunch, or for formal meals, gather in the main dining room, complete with elegant furnishings and a feature wallpaper.
Across warmer months, take advantage of your tranquil surroundings, by preparing a barbecue, or taking a stroll across the gardens and extensive grounds which envelop The Dunnit, where you can also enjoy private riverside and woodland walks.
Return indoors for some rest, selecting from three well-presented bedrooms, all adorned with beamed ceilings and storage, including a double bed with TV and en-suite, a king size bed with TV and double sink unit, and a bunk room with en-suite, together with a ground-floor shower room.
There is something for everyone in the local area, including the famous cathedral cities of Salisbury and Winchester, the latter the former seat of the Anglo-Saxon King Alfred the Great.
Historic houses and national gardens include the National Trust historical priory and country estate at Mottisfont which is home to the renowned National Collection of pre-1900 old-fashioned roses, which reach their peak in early summer; the equally renowned Sir Harold Hillier Gardens and arboretum situated in Ampfield, just outside Romsey, which covers 180 acres and over 42,000 trees and shrubs; together with museums including King Johns House and Heritage Centre in Romsey, the museum of Army Flying at Middle Wallop and the Royal Hampshire Regiment Museum in Winchester.
For petrol heads there is the world-famous National Motor Museum which has one of the finest collections of cars, motorcycles and motoring memorabilia in the world, and Thruxton Motor racing circuit and aerodrome which has an extensive racing events calendar as well as offering driving and karting experiences.
There are also a variety of flying experiences available in Thruxton and the surrounding area; for the truly brave, visit Old Sarum airfield, one of the oldest continually operational airfields in the UK, which offers a range of skydiving opportunities.
For those seeking a more leisurely pace enjoying nature there is the Hawk Conservancy Trust near Andover, multiple golf courses nearby and many fishing venues on the River Dun and River Test including Holbury Lakes Trout Fishery within very close proximity, the John Lewis Leckford Estate and Water Gardens at Longstock and Broadlands Country House and Estate at Romsey.
If your tastes are more for wine and beers, visit the local vineyards and distilleries such as Ringwood Brewery, Flack Manor Brewery at Romsey, Black Chalk Vineyard near Stockbridge and New Forest Cider near Ringwood.
For families and younger visitors, there is Paultons Park and Peppa Pig World at Ower, New Forest Aqua and Water Park at Fordingbridge, and Marwell Zoo and Activity Centre near Winchester.
Experience all of this at The Dunnit@Manor Farm.

What guests are saying
The Dunnit is a gem of a place in a great location.
The owners are very helpful and friendly, recommending places to visit or eat and fixing minor snags quickly. The decor, furnishing and items provided were all of a high standard. Three of us had a very comfortable week there in September 26 and recommend it.
The property was very well presented ,clean, tidy and well equipped.
Lovely rural location. Lots of space. Really enjoyed our stay here. Good location to explore the new forest and surrounding area.
