Wendy H.

A most idyllic retreat for the weekend
The welcome we had from Anthony was warm, friendly and extremely informative. The property is well appointed with everything you need with the fantastic benefit of being by the riverside, giving relaxation immediately. With a log burner inside keeping everything cosy and the water vole swimming across the water, the birds and the wildfowl giving lots to see just in the garden. We enjoyed going to Chesapeake Mills and trying not to spend too much money on everything available there We loved that we could walk everywhere in close distance with amenities such as pubs, restaurants, cafes, shops and an excellent butchers in the lovely market square We will definitely be visiting again at either here or the other properties at River Meon retreats and recommend it heartily

Perfect
What a find. The cottage although a little quirky was spotless and very comfortable. The real gem was the outside area overlooking the river and old mill. Anthony the host was very friendly and instantly made us feel at home. The log fire was another bonus which we were encouraged to use. Will definitely stop here again.

Would highly recommend
Would highly recommend. The house is gorgeous and the location is too. The design and decor is stunning and the view of the river makes this really special. The customer service was excellent, Anthony and his family couldn't have been more helpful. The village is really pretty and the pubs and walks around were great. Would love to return

A perfect cottage
Charmant cottage, charmant village, emplacement idyllique au bord de la rivière. Anthony a été très accueillant et réactif. Nous avons passé une très belle semaine au calme. Restaurants et magasins à moins de 3 minutes à pied. L’endroit idéal pour se ressourcer!

Stylish stay
A very unusual mix of industrial and antique fixtures on the ground floor gives way to luxurious en-suite bedrooms. Very swish! Small outdoor area with seating, and barbecue overlooks the River Meon. Being a fisherman, my favourite feature is a small jetty with a seat. I would hesitate to recommend to people with small children. Those with mobility issues might struggle as there are a number of level changes outside.
