Set within a small courtyard development in the centre of Fordingbridge, this contemporary house offers excellent access to this pretty waterside town and a selection of pubs, shops and cafes. For a relaxed afternoon why not find a spot overlooking the river and enjoy a drink or meal? Located on the western edge of the New Forest National Park, many walking and cycling routes can be found nearby, making the most of the picturesque landscape this area is renowned for. The coast is also close at hand, with stretches of sandy beach at both Bournemouth and Mudeford. The market town of Ringwood offers further amenities or you can explore the neighbouring county of Dorset, which is also within easy reach.

A short path leads you to the front door. As you enter you will pass a separate ground floor WC before entering the cosy lounge/diner.

Leading off the lounge area is the compact kitchen, which is well-equipped with an electric oven and induction hob, fridge/freezer, microwave, dishwasher and a washing machine. Heading upstairs to the first floor you will find a pretty double bedroom and a cosy single bedroom. On this floor you will also find the bathroom, which has a walk in shower.

Heading outside from the lounge/diner you will find a pretty enclosed courtyard where you can enjoy some al fresco dining, west facing so in the evening you can soak up the last of the days sun.

A great, cosy property, ideal for exploring the local New Forest. We had all we needed to make this a very relaxing stay, and gratefully received the welcome pack, thank you. The village is in easy walking distance and we enjoyed good food and drinks at the George and Ship Inn. The X3 bus service is convenient for trips to Salisbury, Bournemouth anRead mored many other stops in the surrounding area, including the Blashford Lakes Nature Reserve. The parking is a bonus too.

The cottage was perfect; comfortable, clean, really well equipped and with a nice outdoor seating area. The welcome pack was very much appreciated. The location is very convenient with village shops, pubs and restaurants just a few minutes walk from the cottage. We had a lovely holiday at The Mallards.
