“Beautiful cottage in a superb location.”

The owners have thought of everything to make the holiday as relaxing and comfortable as possible.

“This house felt like a home from the moment we entered it.”

We couldn’t have felt more welcome - from the welcome basket left by our hosts Jane and Tim to exceptionally comfortable beds, well equipped bathrooms and kitchen and a delightful garden. A real break away from a busy hectic world for our whole family aged from 4 months to the 70s. We would very much like to return.

Thank you for your lovely comments and we look forward to welcoming you back soon. Owner relations
Mr Cook September 2019

“Very warm welcome from Jane.”

The house perfectly met the needs of our family party covering 4 generations. Thoughtful little touches like socket covers to make sure the youngest member of the group could enjoy herself safely. We loved the garden with its apple trees and raspberries. Great location on the edge of the common and easy stroll to excellent pub and community shop. Fantastic weather. Hope you organise that for all your guests.
Mr Watson August 2019

“Lovely family home quietly situated just off the village green.”

Plenty of ponies, donkeys and cows in the road outside to satisfy any "townies" looking for the New Forest experience and easy walk to local pub (good beer selection but meals not cheap. The village shop/post Office is superb with excellent bread and meat (any would be barbequer must get the lamb chops, local sausages and chicken breasts in lemon and pepper marinade). The downstairs bedroom and wetroom is not 100% accessible as there is a step down. However, it is only about 4 inches and there is a strong handle. My wife, who is disabled with MS was able to manage quite easily. There is no shelf in the wetroom but having spoken to the owner she will deal with it. Finally, the tenants have access to the vegetable garden and, dependant on the season, we were able to pick masses of raspberries, runner beans, carrots, borlotti beans as well as apples and pears. In summary , an excellent and spacious home with enclosed garden and one, if circumstances permit, would return to.
Mrs Camm-jones July 2019

“We have stayed in this property before, and were very keen to return.”

The house and garden are perfect for adults and children, and the location is lovely. It is within reach of many of the New Forest's attractions, but you can spend days just exploring the local area on foot. The local Community shop is very well stocked, and the Horse and Groom pub is excellent for both food and drink, with an extensive garden and friendly staff,
Mrs Ball May 2019

“We rented the house to accommodate the family whilst celebrating my special birthday.”

The house was very homely and we all felt at ease immediately. The owner informed us that it was her much loved childhood family home and she was happy to see other people enjoying it. The children loved the garden which was a perfect setting for hide and seek and a lovely place for the adults to sit and admire it's beauty. The location was superb, away from it all. The animals on the nearby common provided a constant interest for the children. All in all we had a fabulous time in a house that was comfortable, clean and obviously cared for. Thank you.
Mrs Perry December 2018

“We had the most enjoyable stay at Byways.”

Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“I booked this accommodation for a stay with friends and their toddlers.”

This accommodation was perfect for families. I was very impressed with our gorgeous welcome basket. They provided tea, coffee and sugar which was fantastic!! The location was excellent and there were very informative leaflets making it easy to explore the gorgeous surroundings. As an added extra I want to say a big thank you to the owners who were able to send my daughter's special Peter Rabbit bowl to us after we left it! We were very grateful for their thoughtfulness and appreciative of how they would go the extra mile to ensure we had a lovely time. We will definitely be coming back and we've recommended it to all of our friends and family.
Guest's review on TripAdvisor

“Located at the northern end of the New Forest, this lovely family residence is perfect for family events.”

Spacious and extremely well furnished and fitted out it provided the perfect combination of a large kitchen and lounge with privacy when required. The garden is a delight as are the nearby (very) animals. There is a pub just down the road.
The Haynes family

“Fabulous weekend was had by all - thank you for letting us enjoy your beautiful house.”

With four little ones it was great - all your info. was very helpful - we had a super Easter egg hunt in your lovely garden.
Mrs H.

“My parents left yesterday after a fantastic week at Byways.”

The house really was perfection - clean, very comfortable, with every element they could need for the week supplied. The house & garden are beautiful & my parents immediately felt right at home and enjoyed reading the books in the library! Jane & Tim stopped by several times to ensure my parents were happy & had everything they needed. Jane & Tim could not have been more pleasant or accommodating. My parents are very grateful to them & for the use of their lovely home.
The Jackson family

About the location

FORDINGBRIDGE

Salisbury 11 miles; Bournemouth 18 miles.

Fordingbridge is a traditional Hampshire town on the banks of the River Avon, and offers a good mix of shops, pubs and restaurants, a small museum of local history and a display of original work by the artist Augustus John, who lived here for many years. The medieval Great Bridge, with seven graceful arches, is a major feature of the town. The immediate area is a wonderful place for visitors, with its beautiful scenery, nature havens, cycleways and welcoming people. Fordingbridge is conveniently situated for the magnificent cathedral city of Salisbury to the north, and the super seaside resort of Bournemouth to the south. The stunning New Forest National Park is only 1.5 miles from the town, where you can explore thousands of acres of moor, heath and woodland frequented by wild ponies, and dotted with quaint villages and country pubs. Within a short drive is the magnificent Elizabethan manor house at Breamore, as well as the New Forest Water Park, and a trip to Beaulieu, home of the National Motor Museum is not to be missed. This is a great location for exploring this picturesque and interesting area.
