The Stable At Field Cottage
We enjoyed our lovely relaxed stay in a peaceful location with a friendly host who provides an excellent breakfast which was much appreciated.

Rural Idyll for dog-lovers near the New Forest
Alison‘s place was perfect, it has absolutely everything you need for a comfortable stay. The location is quiet and idyllic in a small village with lots of countryside walks from the door. There is a pub in the village and several not too far away if you need somewhere to eat. There is a Trout fishery in walking distance. Beds comfortable. The garden is perfect and enclosed for the dog to run around, and there is plenty of parking right outside the door of the cabin. Alison was an excellent unobtrusive host and left us initial provisions including eggs from her chickens and freshly cooked bread. What more could you ask for? We drove 25 minutes into the heart of the New Forest and hired bikes for the day. We’ll definitely be back!

The Chalet at Primrose Hill BH19 3EE
Fantastic little place to stay, central to an amazing area with loads to do. Home was exactly as described and clean and clutter free with essentials provided. Barbara was friendly and provided local recommendations within the guidance. Would stay again.

Less than 5min walk to village and 7 min to sea
Little Ridge was absolutely perfect for our mini break. It was a lovely and cosy place to stay with everything we needed. We enjoyed using the patio area and the village and sea are very close by. Milford on Sea is a super little village with great walks along the coast or to Hurst Castle. Highly recommended and we hope to stay again!

The Lazy Lodge
We had a great stay at Maria and Marks - thank you! The cabin was homely and comfortable and we all enjoyed the hot tub! The location is fantastic and we appreciated the recommendations Maria provided! Visiting Moors Valley and getting the ferry over the Mudeford Spit / Sandbank for the beautiful beaches were our highlights!

The Croft - 2 Bedroom Log Cabin in the New Forest
Perfect stay for the second year running. We’ve had a wonderful weekend, eaten at The Pig and Lind House hotel and spa at Chewton Glen. Then had this little gem to wind down in after. Thank you

The Studio B&B Luxury Garden Room
Lovely place, everything you need for a good value stay. Host was super helpful and recommended us a couple of places to go which was super helpful. Perfect for us as a place to stay on our road trip

Caister Cottage Barn
This place was in such a nice area. There's a walk to a pub right outside the house and anything else is just a 10 minute drive away at most. Liz was a great host and told us everything we needed to know and made us feel right at home. We had a lovely time. Thanks Liz.

Modern guest house close to the beach and town
We had an absolutely wonderful stay and would recommend anyone to go and stay. The accommodation is very cute and was very homely. There are plenty of restaurants and things to do that were recommended to us by the host. The beach is only a 5 minute walk and really easy to get to. The hosts are a lovely family that welcomed us and made us feel right at home. They were very helpful by answering our questions and were really easy to communicate with. Will definitely be coming back soon :)

Castle Hill Cottage
It's in an amazing location, and the cottage is full of character. Benjamin was very responsive. We loved our stay, and my daughter's highlight was meeting Benjamin's ponies.

Cabin in the Forest
Very charming place to stay, we really had an amazing time ! Brockenhurst is beautiful ! We recommend strongly.

Modern & Cosy Retreat - walk to beach, parking
This place is amazing, quiet peaceful but within 5 mins walk of the river and 10 mins easy walk to the Beach, great host with extra added touches that were so appreciated and made you feel so welcome, facilities were amazing and it's a great place for Exploring Christchurch, Mudeford, Southbourne and Hentisbury would recommend Shelley for anyone looking for place to stay in Dorset.

Unique Private Cabin in Purbeck Dorset Countryside
The cabin was exactly what we wanted. We had a busy weekend planned, so just needed somewhere to rest, and Charlotte's place did it beautifully. The weather was amazing so we were able to sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet, with wonderful views across the countryside. The two local pubs and village store were all within a few minutes walk from the cabin, and everyone was very friendly. We would highly recommend this Airbnb

The Daisy Annex A separate studio
Due to delayed works on our house we found Barbara's place nearby. It was a god-send for us and our dog Winnie. Barbara was very responsive and kind, especially with allowing the flexibility for us to extend. The place was very clean and comfortable, nice and quiet and private. Perfect for us during alot of upheaval! Thank you!

The Stables - Burley, New Forest
Fantastic location, amenities and a wonderfully helpful and responsive host. We had an amazing long weekend away at the Stables, which was the perfect base for exploring and experiencing the New Forest. The property had everything our family needed, whilst the host was very welcoming and helpful if we had any questions. We’d 100% return again!

Cosy garden cabin in the centre of Wareham
A beautiful cabin in the lovely Wareham. I would definitely stay again.

A spacious home from home in North Dorset
A lovely place, close to some beautiful scenery and lovely walks.

The Cabin At Beckheath
We had a fantastic stay at this charming Airbnb in the New Forest. The location is perfect—peaceful, scenic, and within easy reach of walking trails, quaint villages, and local pubs. The accommodation itself was well-equipped, and full of thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. Emma was super friendly and responsive, offering great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. We especially appreciated the welcome pack and local tips! If you're looking for a relaxing escape surrounded by nature, this is the spot. We’ll definitely be coming back.

Modern Garden Room under 5 min walk to beach
It was really lovely to be greeted in person! We use a lot of Airbnb’s and, although there are advantages to arriving and letting yourself in, when you are walking round the side of someone else’s home, it feels like you’re intruding so I like being met at the door by the hosts. The Garden Room is as described. It is spacious, clean, private and has everything you need for a few nights away. There is plenty to do in the area including beautiful walks, beaches, tea rooms, crazy golf and plenty of good restaurants. It was a superb base and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thank you for a lovely stay. P.S. bring an alarm clock - the bed is so comfy you won’t want to get up! 😀

Rural retreat in north Dorset with beautiful views
We had a great stay and would definitely book again! It was spacious and clean. We enjoyed the views and the air hockey table!

Cozy 1-Bed Annexe in the Heart of the New Forest
Deb and Andrew were very lovely and friendly hosts. They recommended restaurants and nice things to do to help us explore the area and they were always on hand if we needed anything. The Annex is small, but perfectly formed. We made good use of the seating area with a table outside to eat our breakfasts and relax in the sunshine in the afternoon. We also used the lockable stables to safely store our bikes.

Beautiful studio with direct access to New Forest
Lovely stay at the studio so peaceful and lovely to watch the horses walking around right outside your gate. Beautiful view from the bedroom window to wake up to and the birds eating from the feeding and giving a little knock on your window in the morning 🥰 Weather was pretty poor, would have been lovely to do a little Barbecue on the portable barbecue left,maybe next time 😊

The Baker's Lodge
Gorgeous accomodation, very helpful host, we relaxed immediately...and we totally recommend this cottage. A perfect base to explore the New Forest with many walks straight from the door. Plus an easy day trip from nearby Lymington to the Isle of Wight if you desire.

Modern design, parking, centre of Christchurch
Excellent location, super clean and high-end, amazing towels, pillows and duvet. A fabulous find. Great hosts
