Set above the woodland on stilts beside the Beaulieu River, this enchanting waterside retreat promises a truly memorable escape with uninterrupted panoramic views across the water. The garden stretches down to the riverbank, immersing guests in the natural beauty of the New Forest National Park – a wonderful choice for couples seeking a romantic break.
Inside, the bright open-plan living area has been designed to make the most of its remarkable setting, with floor-to-ceiling glazing and sliding doors framing views across the river and surrounding woodland. The doors lead onto a generous deck, creating a lovely setting for outdoor dining, morning yoga or evening stargazing. The stylish lounge includes atmospheric lighting, a flame-effect fire and a dining table positioned to take in the scenery. The modern kitchen is fully equipped with an electric hob, oven, air fryer, and Nespresso machine, alongside a breakfast bar where you can sip coffee while watching the wildlife through the binoculars provided. The king-size bedroom, complete with a pocket-sprung mattress, Egyptian cotton bedding, dressing gowns and slippers, creates a calm retreat at the end of each day. A sleek bathroom with bath and overhead shower, plus a separate WC, completes the accommodation. On the lower level, a practical utility room has a washing machine, dryer, extra fridge/freezer and secure bike storage. Spare wellies and umbrellas are available, while an outside tap makes it straightforward to clean muddy boots and bicycles after adventures. The unfenced grounds retain their natural character, allowing local wildlife to flourish while guests can explore the surroundings at leisure. A welcome pack, luxury bed linen and plush towels add thoughtful touches to your stay. Ample parking space for cars and boasts is provided.
The property places miles of open forest, scenic walks and cycling routes within easy reach. Follow the Solent Way, paddle by kayak along the river towards the Solent, or discover the historic shipbuilding village of Buckler’s Hard (2 miles) and the charming village of Beaulieu 1.5 miles from home.
