Holiday cottage in the New Forest

The landscape is quite unique and traditions here are unchanged since the mediaeval age.

The ponies and cattle in the New Forest still have the right of way as they freely graze the land. There are wild deer grazing in the ancient woodlands - an idyllic setting for a self-catering holiday cottage.
