The Old Barn

About

Set in the pretty village of Exbury in the New Forest, This romantic bolthole for 2 is just a mile from the coast and close to a number of lovely gastro pubs. Inside is elegantly spacious yet retains a super cosiness - winning it rave reviews from guests.

The lounge features two sofas for sprawling and a large log burner to snuggle around and relax when you've been out in the cold – maybe with a glass or two of your favourite wine and artisan treats from the nearby farm shop. Stairs from the lounge lead to the only bedroom presenting a super-comfy king-size bed beautifully dressed in 'White Company' linen.

There's also a cute garden accessed from the lounge French doors, where you'll find a dainty table and chairs on the patio with views over the lawn and bloom-filled flower beds.

Close by days out include kayaking on Beaulieu River, Bucklers Hard historic shipbuilding village, Beaulieu National Motor Museum to see vintage and modern car exhibits such as film and TV cars and 'The World of Top Gear', Exbury Gardens and the Georgian maritime town of Lymington.
