Cottage vacation rentals in Bournemouth

Absolutely lovely stay in this cottage. Our whole family enjoyed the stay and felt at home from the minute we walked in the door. Christine was always responsive to queries and provided a wealth of information in the welcome pack before we arrived. This enabled us to plan fully and make the most of our time on the new forest.

We couldn't have wished for a nicer stay in the New Forest! The cottage is equipped everything you need, is located in beautiful surroundings with ample cycling routes nearby, and has a hot tub as an added bonus. Cindy and Lina are super accommodating and attentive hosts. We will most definitely be returning!

We had a great stay here. Lovely lodge and beautiful surroundings. Would definitely visit again and recommend to others.

We have just spent the Easter weekend at this wonderful cottage - 4 adults and 2 children under 6 years old, and I have to say that Joel & Gaby’s place near the new forest is absolutely fabulous. Very spacious and ideal if you are looking for a getaway with a hot tub and table tennis in the garden. The cottage is in a great location, about 10 min drive to Paultons Park with peppa pig world so an absolute must for kids. It’s also not far from the new forest itself and Lyndhurst town. It was really tidy & clean, with a well equipped kitchen and bathrooms stocked with fresh towels. We were left a lovely gift on arrival of fresh bread, milk, eggs and a bottle of Prosecco which was an absolute treat! I couldn’t recommend this cottage more - thank you Joel & Gaby we had a fabulous time and would stay again in future.

The hosts were helpful from the moment we booked our stay. We were given clear instructions on where to arrive and were greeted as soon as we pulled into the carpark. They explained all the necessary information and answered all of our questions and were very helpful. They were always available if we had any queries and gave plenty of local recommendations for food and activities. We would 100% recommend and would be more than happy to book again.

We had such a fantastic time in Jocelyn and David’s Air B & B with our 11 month old twins. The place is very child friendly with cots, highchairs and plenty of toys which our twins loved to play with. Everything is very cosy and comfortable (with comfy sofas and beds) and the kitchen is well equipped. Everything was also very clean. We also enjoyed having a glass of wine in the hot tub after we put our twins to bed. It is in a great location with plenty of great nearby pubs and walks. A big highlight was all the amazing gentle and friendly animals - horses, a donkey, and chickens to name a few which we and our twins enjoyed going to see every morning. We also thought Jocelyn and David were thoughtful hosts and very friendly. We would thoroughly recommend to families or couples. We hope to be back soon! Thank you Jocelyn and David!

We had a fantastic few days in Godshill, staying with elderly parents and 2 young children. Host was very helpful and let us check-in a bit early, the house is beautiful and has everything you need with perfectly labelled instructions. Very comfortable beds and loved the hot tub and games room! Thoroughly recommend!!!

We had a really great stay, and wouldn’t hesitate to rebook and recommend to others. The location was really perfect for what we wanted. Chrissie is a brilliant host, she has really thought of everything and her instructions were clear. We didn’t need any help so Chrissie left us to enjoy our stay in peace but if we did need anything we were reassured that she would be responsive. Communication was great. Loved the hot tub and wood burner.

Thank you for opening your home for our family. We had a lovely stay. Great location with gorgeous views. Care package of Milk, sugar, tea, coffee & biscuits was lovely. Had a lovely weekend in Lulworth Cove. Seafield house was cosy well equipped & clean, really easy to find and gain access and a small stroll to local shop, pubs , chip shop coffee shops and the cove. Perfect for families & great for long walks. A little worn in places but homely. 1 recommendation would be change pillows they were old flat & worn. If you plan on eating dinner out be sure to book ahead not lots of options & gets very busy. Castle Inn Pub was the best restaurant for dinner & Finleys fish & chips were delicious 😋

Communication was quick and easy with Natasha. Drove through New Forest and saw the wild horses, then soon at the Ferry. Ferry was very well organised and they even knew our names at the check in booth! Access was straightforward, very clean and tidy throughout. Literally less than 10 mins from ferry, but far enough away in a quiet little area. Beautiful clean cosy cottage, very comfortable living. Situated in an excellent position.Small gated garden opening out onto large grass area.Then steps down to beach and licensed cafe. Forest to left of the cottage-long walks and great views. Super dog friendly-seemed every where in the Isle of Wight-in multiple cafes,pubs and restaurants, dogs spoilt, given their own complementary treats and water!Fully recommended for a couple(s) or family get aways and even spoiling the pooch.Thank you very much for having us,we felt very welcomed and really enjoyed every minute-could quite easily live there! Hope to book with you again!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

If I could give extra stars beyond the 5 star rating, I really would. Hillary's AirBnB is beautiful, exactly what my wife and I needed and agreed it was one of the best places we've stayed at via AirBnB. Hillary allowed for an early check-in, was really communicative being friendly and helpful whenever we did communicate. Cannot recommend enough!

The two of us had a great time in the Wiltshire Downs thanks to Carl's place. It was lovely to come back to a warm, spacious house with a well-equipped kitchen to relax and unwind in. The beds were comfy, and the place was quiet and peaceful at night so it was perfect for recovering after a day exercising in the local nature!

Nicole’s place was ideal for a spring break, property was fantastic 5 minute walk into the village, and 5 minutes walk into the magnificent forest to walk the dog in the morning. Highly recommend gardeners retreat. Ideal to get away and relax yet have enough on your doorstep to keep you entertained.

Tudor Rose Cottage is a charming and cozy retreat with everything you need for a comfortable stay, with thoughtful goodies that were very welcome after a long trip. The cottage is well-equipped and beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere - my Australian husband’s first experience of a thatched cottage was a great one. Be sure to take note of the quirky stairs, which may not be suitable for everyone, though they were manageable for us. Parking was easy, right outside the door. The surrounding village is delightful, offering a peaceful setting and a great base for exploring nearby attractions such as Lulworth Cove, Durdle Door, Cerne Abbas, Kingston Lacey, and more. Recommended.

An ideal location for an extended stay and enjoyable holidays. The Foxhill reception and attentive service is excellent Nothing is too much trouble and Dairy cottage is equipped with everything you need.

Wonderful cosy cottage in a really peaceful location right next to the south west coast path. Thanks to Ian’s excellent directions we found it and easily let ourselves in. He was easily contactable and responsive. A great stay and would definitely recommend

A really great house for our New Forest visit. Managed a couple of very enjoyable gravel bike rides along the coast and through the forest. This is a great base for exploring the forest.

I would highly recommend staying at Sandra's beautiful cottage. It is so well equipped, comfortable and cosy - a real home from home - and idea for long and short stays. Everything was immaculate and the bed and sofas were so comfy. And Cookie loved the dog bed and bowls that were provided. Sandra has provided lots of ideas for trips and places to eat locally. We will definitely return!

The Stride Cottage was a great place for our stay in the New Forest. A very convenient location with lots of walks and cycle paths right from the door step. The cottage itself is beautiful, had everything we needed. Karen is a very proactive host and gave us all the necessary information. Overall a great experience!

Wow! What a fabulous find - cute little cottage with everything with needed - clean/comfortable and a fab garden area to enjoy the sunshine - perfect location for cycling to the New forest or walking into Lymington.

Lucy is a brilliant host, very responsive and friendly too. The cottage is in a great location and it's easy to get to the local shops and restaurants. Parking is easy and the cottage has everything you need and more. It's a lovely place to stay.

Lovely cosy cottage that everything we needed for a few days on the Isle of Purbeck. big enough for two adults and teenage sons. recommend the tea room and a great host.

We had a magical stay at this idyllic riverside cottage in the heart of the New Forest. Perfect for our family of five (including a baby), it was peaceful, beautifully kept, and had everything we needed. The kids loved swimming in the river, spotting horses and birds, and exploring the local country parks. Gorgeous walks started right from the cottage, and the nearby pub served delicious food with a warm welcome. Ana was a great host who greeted us with freshly made sour dough bread. We felt completely immersed in nature but still close to the charm of the local town. A truly special place to slow down, recharge, and make memories—can’t recommend it enough. Five stars!

Was such a lovely cosy place to stay! We will be back in the summer! Fern and Jamie x
