"The Hideaway is tucked away peacefully at the rear of the lawned grounds of the owner’s home, which is steeped in history and which, in the 1830s, included a wheelwrights, post office and bakery. The Hideaway is a single-storey wooden lodge and makes an ideal retreat for couples. Also within the grounds are Walnut Tree Cottage (ref 30424) and The Old Post Office (30425), providing an ideal opportunity for couples or guests wishing to holiday together whilst retaining their own space.

This is a convenient location set just back from the main road leading from Salisbury, 9 miles, or Ringwood, 5 miles. Keen walkers will delight in the fact that they are situated directly opposite footpaths within the New Forest National Park, with many scenic walks and ideal for spotting local wildlife. For those who would prefer to explore by cycle, the owners can offer a place to lock your bikes away when not in use.

All properties have their own allocated parking, sitting-out area and large lawned gardens shared with the owners and their young family. They make ideal touring bases from which to visit the extensive attractions in the area. About a mile away is the charming town of Fordingbridge with a host of shops, cafés and eateries, and the gently flowing River Avon. Also close by are the New Forest Water Park (with wakeboarding, waterskiing and aqua park) and Moors Valley Country Park (with cycle hire, golf course, angling, Go Ape treetop adventure, Forest Segway, play trail and miniature steam passenger railway). The location is convenient for road links to the cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury, Christchurch Harbour, and the coast including Poole and Bournemouth. Other attractions include Marwell Zoo, Beaulieu Motor Museum the New Forest Otter and Owl Park. Maritime Southampton and various other tourist attractions are within easy driving distance, as is Stonehenge. Beach 16 miles. Shop and pub 1 mile, restaurant 400 yards."

Aptly named!

Hideaway was tucked in the corner of a large garden, and was comfortable in every way with everything thought of. We loved it there.

It is a small wooden building at the far end of the owners land.

It is a small wooden building at the far end of the owners land. The owners were friendly and helpful. It lacks wifi but the owner pointed out that it's distance from the house makes it not a practical proposition and they allowed us to come near to their house and log into their wifi to update things like whatsapp, emails, the weather app, BBC news etc which worked fine for us. Inside with fairly small windows and surrounded by trees and bushes it was a bit dark but that was not a problem for us. The TV is a decent sized flat screen and worked well but there was no DVD player connected to it. The bed was comfortable. The kitchen well equipped with all that we needed. There was a comfortable settee, (which could open out into a bed for a second couple) and the table had four chairs and the cutlery and crockery was for four although being so small we found it fine for the two of us but it might have felt cramped for four. The name describes it well tucked away in a large lawned garden with lots of trees around. We would happily return to this property again. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
