About this property
Dell Cottage is uniquely situated in a forest clearing where deer and ponies graze right outside the front gate. Recently redecorated throughout, with the addition of modern appliances to enhance your stay, this property is the ideal forest retreat in a spectacular setting. A wood-fired hot tub offers a glorious spot to rest and recharge, and with wonderful views from all rooms and wildlife in abundance, the cottage is a haven of peace and privacy in this glorious part of the New Forest.
The cottage is a spacious and comfortable detached house in the tiny hamlet of Bank just outside the popular New Forest village of Lyndhurst. Downstairs offers plenty of space for all the family to enjoy, with a log burner for cosy evenings in, and good-sized dining kitchen opening out onto a garden terrace with seating and fire pit. With three light and airy bedrooms and three bathrooms, it is a superb family holiday base. All the forest has to offer is right on your doorstep, or enjoy the large mature garden, set mainly to lawn with a small vegetable patch and a stream at the rear of the property. There is an attractive pub five minutes' walk along the track and the village of Lyndhurst is just a short drive away.
For all those foodies amongst you, Dell Cottage thoughtfully provides all the equipment you might need to prepare gourmet meals and entertain, both within the kitchen and outdoors for al fresco dining under the stars. With an outdoor pizza oven, gas fired grill, open Argentinian cage fire and meat smoker there is plenty to experiment with. And for the kids, an ice cream maker will keep them happy! A tree swing, relaxing hammock and tepee camp swing complete this fun filled holiday spot.
Please note that access to Dell Cottage is via an unmade gravel track. Please drive carefully as there may be potholes.
Dell Cottage can cater for a maximum of 6 adults and 2 children plus a baby/infant in a cot.
