Step in and spoil yourself. No.24 is designed for bubbly nights in, and colourful days out. We love this place for the outdoor sitting room, for the huge lounge with oversized sofas, giant TV, and because everyone gets an ensuite.
The style here is modern and perfect for down-time. The owner, a local property developer, has gone overboard to look after guests - and their pampered pooches.
It is thoughtfully renovated with holiday guests in mind. There are 4 single beds and 1 king so it will well suit those who need to be flexible about sleeping arrangements - the single beds zip together to make super-smart super kings.
Lymington is a stylish and colourful market town, often voted 'Top 10 places to live in the UK' in The Times. Number Two is less than a minute walk away from the vibrant High Street and the picturesque cobbled streets of the Old Town Quay are only three minutes away. Further on, you'll find mile after mile of smart yachting marinas and sea wall footpaths to admire the boats from.
** This property is available for rent with New Forest Escapes, who are a small local holiday cottage agency. Do contact us directly for best rates and availability a year in advance **
Inside...
The house has been fully renovated and has been rebuilt by the owner (who knows his stuff) over the last 2 years. Walk in to an atrium hallway with views through the whole house and into the garden behind. There is plenty of light, high ceilings, slate floors, everything is good quality and built to last.
The kitchen and kitchen table is open-plan with a side-return that makes a perfect bar/serving area. There are acres of oak work tops and glossy cupboards. No one has to look at the working side of the house with clever pantry and wash room tucked away into a utility hall.
The open-plan area extends past a clever open-wall (what is that called Mark) to the huge sitting room which is full width to the house. It's vaulted roof space and full length windows make it feel enormous. All the furniture in here is super-size and it's probably the best sitting room (in all our houses) for kicking back and watching sport and putting your feet up. You're in the relaxation zone here....
It's all a very clever take on what was a pretty basic bungalow. Now alongside the giant sofas is a table for 8, and a beautiful light installation overhead. Evenings are set up ready for celebrations with fairy lights artily styled in the rafters, uplighting in the plant pots, a glamorous wood burner and more black glossy slate.
Two bedrooms, mirroring each other across the hall, are set up in turquoise and pink, both have ensuite sparkly showers. The 3rd bedroom is styled in dark red and has an ensuite bathroom. Beds are brand new with super deep mattresses.
So whether you're coming here for a Gavin and Stacey girls night catch up, a fellas sports weekend, or a family fun break away - you'll love it. Whilst the owner welcomes celebrations and a bit of a party - the house isn't a stag or hen do's venue.
Outside...
Head out back and enjoy the feel of the furry grass....for those of us who are sick of real lawns - come here for the love of no-mow perfection! The grass is perfect astroturf; fake, fabulous and perfect for the little space.
There is a huge umbrella over a picnic table, two quality sun loungers, a whopper fire pit and around it, very solid wooden sofas with excellent pads on them - it's a real sun trap - so for those needing to top up on some fresh air, sun worshipping or star gazing ... Happy Days!
Home Truths
The style here is sleek & contemporary overt and perfect for grown ups to gather.
Kids are welcome - please view our selection of kit - there is only a minimum supplied and the garden is small so it's not a place for wild kids to run wild... choose from our other homes for that. We ask for no ball games in the garden please as there is not enough room and fittings for lights are glass.
We are sorry but there is no side/rear access or storage for bikes at the property.
There is an extra charge for logs and kindling to burn on the fire (October- March) but feel free to BYO!
