About this property

A beautiful cottage in the heart of the New Forest and a short drive to beaches

April Cottage is a comfortable cosy two bedroomed terrace cottage, set in the middle of the delightful village of Everton with our friendly local shop and pub offering scrumptious local produce.

Nestled in the heart of the New Forest, with only a short drive to the beaches, open forest and the charming market town of Lymington with it’s picturesque town quay, boutique shops and bustling Saturday market. The cottage has a sitting/dining room with a separate kitchen, conservatory and boot room. Upstairs there are two bedrooms (one double and one twin) with a shower room. There is a walled garden at the rear and a front garden with gravel parking for 2 cars.

Milford On Sea and Keyhaven is 'just down the road'; offering village shops, beaches, cafe's, pubs and restaurants. By taking a short walk/drive to Keyhaven, you will find a traditional pub and a beautiful walk along the sea wall, enjoying the spectacular views of the Solent, the Needles and Isle of Wight. Bird watchers will particularly enjoy the salt pans and marshes that are renowned for their bird-life. You can take a ferry from Keyhaven harbour to Hurst Castle and if you are feeling energetic you can walk back along shingle bank.

In the other direction is Christchurch and Bournemouth with long golden sandy beaches, theatres, pubs, restaurants and a buzzing nightlife.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with the New Forest when we used to bring the children here for beach and forest holidays. We moved here 18 years ago and live just around the corner in Everton. We love the lifestyle being near the coast and New Forest - we enjoy sailing and all things boats as well as long walks with our dogs on the forest.

What makes this property unique

We bought April Cottage in 2016 and spent the early part of 2017 renovating the cottage. Everton is an extremely friendly village with lovely local facilities. We loved this cottage because of its beautiful rooms and private walled garden to the rear that leads out on to a lovely lane with a short walk to the local pub for a lunch or evening meal. The village is incredibly well positioned for access to both the coast and forest.
