Saddlers Cottage, Lymington

New Forest. Sleeps up to 8

Bursting with charm and character, and with many original features, Saddlers Cottage is set within the vibrant sailing town of Lymington and all that it has to offer, yet easily accessible to the New Forest National Park and the beaches of the South Coast. Located in the heart of the town, just a stone’s throw from the cobbled Town Quay and waterfront, this three-storey townhouse has glimpses of sailing masts and the water from the front two bedrooms. With stylish furnishings and four individually themed bedrooms, Saddlers Cottage will accommodate up to eight guests, and is dog friendly.

The snug sitting room has a wood burning stove for cosy evenings in, opening onto a sociable kitchen diner, with large family dining table for all to sit around, warmed by the Aga. Upstairs the first floor has two bedrooms with shower room and there are a further two bedrooms and bathroom with slipper bath on the second floor. The south-west facing rear garden captures the summer sunshine, with a large lawn and comfortable seating for outdoor meals and drinks.

The bustling coastal town of Lymington is filled with cobbled streets, quirky shops, and a Georgian High Street with weekly Saturday market. Guests can take a ferry from the marina across to the Isle of Wight and enjoy the breath-taking views back across the pretty town and salt marshes. Just a short stroll or cycle from the property is the start of the coastal path leading along the sea wall to Keyhaven, passing the Lymington Sea Water Baths with giant inflatable course. And for rainy-day activities St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery is a great spot for children and adults alike. There are various beaches within easy reach of the property which offer a great day out, and the open heathland of the New Forest National Park is a short drive or cycle away, with miles of tracks, footpaths and honeypot villages to explore amongst the free-roaming ponies, cattle and donkeys.
