About this property

Tucked away in the pretty seaside location of Milford on Sea in Hampshire, is this fabulous single-storey lodge, Amberwood 42. Boasting all ground-floor accommodation, lakeside views and close proximity to the New Forest National Park, Amberwood 42 welcomes up to four guests and one four-legged friend to bask in the ultimate escape to Hampshire. Upon entering your new home-from-home, kick back and relax in the homely sitting area as the electric stove roars away next to you; allow the allocated chef of the group to rustle up a tasty feast for the whole family in the well-equipped kitchen, ready to be enjoyed at the dining table over a bottle of celebratory fizz! If you prefer, why not step out onto the enclosed decking and take advantage of alfresco mealtimes on the outdoor furniture with stunning views of the lake as your backdrop; this is also the perfect spot to delight in a coffee and enjoy the morning sun. When the evening draws to a close, retreat to the bathroom to wash away the day with a soak in the tub or revitalising shower or opt for a king-size bedroom with its very own handy en-suite facilities! There is also another king-size bedroom, the perfect place to unwind before catching your rest ahead of another day of exciting adventures. If you can tear yourself away, begin your exploration along the coast at Highcliffe or Avon Beach, where you can paddle the shores, soak in the sun’s rays during the warmer months or simply just admire the far-reaching coastal views. Spend the day in the lovely local village of Milford on Sea where you can tour the grounds of Hurst Castle, embark on a scenic stroll along the Solent Way or delight in traditional fish and chips with the quaint New Beach Huts in your backdrop. Shorefield Country Park also has much to offer including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court, sports activities and a spa where you can treat your loved ones. Close by, enjoy the delights of Lymington, home to Lymington Sea Water Baths, St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery and Lymington Nature Reserve, in addition to a plethora of independent stores, pubs and restaurants, perfect for refueling after a tiresome day. From your doorstep you can also venture to Highcliffe Castle if you prefer to immerse yourself in the local history. Well-positioned to also traverse all that the New Forest National Park has to offer, such as the National Motor Museum, Blackwater Arboretum and Palace House, you’ll seldom be short of things to do or see. If you don't feel like leaving your new home-from-home, make use of the nearby lake to try your hand at a spot of fishing. Whisk your loved ones away on an exciting adventure to Hampshire, with a stay at Amberwood 42.

Milford on Sea, a charming seaside community, is a lovely home base for a coastal escape. Its long, picturesque beach, which offers views of the Isle of Wight and The Needles, is bordered by beach huts in vibrant colours, giving it a wonderful, traditional feel. The cliff top offers breathtaking views of The Solent, and a stroll along the sea wall beginning in Keyhaven is essential. Visit Milford on Sea's Pleasure Grounds for a stroll in the afternoon; it includes 14 acres of woods with footpaths along the Danes Stream. Take the short drive to the New Forest National Park to experience its serenity, or take a ferry to the Isle of Wight to view The Needles up close, explore Osborne House and Amazon World Zoo Park, or simply unwind on one of the island's lovely sandy beaches. Milford on Sea is the ideal destination for a beach retreat because it has everything you'll need for a pleasant stay.

    The lodge is to a really high standard and the added touches just make it a bit more special. Great communication from the owners. The lodge is situated on Shorefield Country Park and the facilities on site are also really good. Dog friendly lodge and site. Would recommend to anyone.
