Cottage vacation rentals in The New Forest

Lovely place to stay plenty of local places to take the dog for a walk and within a 20-25 minute drive you could access numerous other places and towns to visit. Lovely stay and place the hot tub was nice to relax in after long days.

We absolutely loved our stay. The cottage was beautifully decorated and well equipped, making us feel right at home. The area and scenery were beautiful, making for the perfect relaxing stay.

Stayed here with my husband two children and our dog and felt at home. We loved being on the farm and the children enjoyed feeding the chickens. A great place to stay to explore York and surrounding areas. We loved relaxing in the hot tub in the evening and would definitely stay again, Thank you.

We have just had a fantastic stay at The Lamp Post. We were absolutely blown away by the accommodation. Steve and Andrea have thought of absolutely everything. The whole place is luxury and pristine. The hot tub is so easy to use and definitely an extra added bonus to what is a beautiful place to stay. Thank you so much - we will definitely be returning!

We had a fantastic stay here for 4 nights. It was beautifully clean and had everything and more we needed. Such lovely hosts, very responsive should you need them. Great location! Such an easy drive to a lot of places. We visited Whitby, Scarborough, Pickering, Thornton Le Dale and more! All under 1 hours drive away. Cottage is so homely and very welcoming 😊 Amazing that each room has their own en-suite. Beds are so comfy! Downstairs bedroom was great for us with someone in the party having mobility issues. Games room is a fabulous touch! Sauna and hot tub both very clean. Highly recommend to stay here. Thanks for a wonderful stay 🥰

We’ve had the most wonderful time staying here. The Loft is spotless, beautifully decorated and has everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The views from the hot tub are breathtaking , it’s genuinely like stepping into a postcard! The perfect location for exploring The Dales. Claire and Neil are very welcoming and thoughtful, providing great recommendations. We’d thoroughly recommend staying here and would not hesitate to book again! Thank you for having us x

Really enjoyable stay. Everything was perfect, and I would return if I were back in the area. The location was peaceful, private, and surrounded by beautiful nature — exactly what I was hoping for. The space was spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully designed, with all the amenities I needed for a comfortable and relaxing getaway.

Amazing house absolutely lovely area and just gorgeous I had the best time xx

Heidi & Chris were great hosts, they provided lots of useful information on places to visit and where to eat out. The cottage was spotless, it had everything you needed. We had a great stay and would definitely recommend it to family and friends.

Lovely little place! This cottage had everything we needed to cater for our family including dogs and a 6 month old baby. Elley was great in giving us all the information we needed before arrival about the house and the area. She also made sure we had a high chair, cot and bowls for our baby. This reduced the packing down no end! There is a lovely, enclosed little courtyard as well as plenty of green space making it ideal for our dogs. Even throughout our trip Elley was great in communicating to us. The place was lovely and clean. We were very sad to be leaving. Thank you for such a wonderful stay Elley.

Wow! What a fantastic place to stay. The cottage was a perfect haven for a relaxing holiday. The scenery was breathtaking, and we spent much of the time gazing out of the window at the dramatic weather and wildlife. We wished we could have stayed longer! And will recommend it to all our friends. Many thanks Sally, Kevin and Pippa 🐾

Lovely stay! Fantastic host. Perfect for what we needed. Would definitely stay again. Thank you

Just had the cosiest stay at Triangle Cottage! Very tastefully decorated, the comfiest bed and the dreamy rolled top bath with the views made it all the more relaxing! It had everything I needed for a wee retreat with my dog in the countryside. Perfect walkable distance to the city centre and various hikes around. Strongly recommend!

The Writer's Cottage was everything we expected, and a whole load more. Quirky and individual don't go near to describing it! Heath's welcome was great (even though we arrived considerably earlier than expected) and his local knowledge and recommendations were awesome. We used it as a base for lovely walks from the property, and slightly further afield to the National Mining Museum (new to us, highly recommended) and the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (an old favourite) near Wakefield. Useful information (might already be covered in the listing) - It is not remotely suitable for young people who cannot be "trusted" (lots of lovely but small, sharp, heavy, unsteady objects). People with reduced mobility should probably check with Heath too. Other points (which did not cause us any issues) the kitchen was fine but there is no microwave / dishwasher / washing machine / tumble dryer. We would love to stay again if back in the area.

Skylark cottage is in a lovely spot, a perfect retreat from busy life and a really calming space inside and out. It was spotless, cosy and well equipped. The newly created wood was a joy to walk through and our dog loved it here too!

A very well presented cottage, walks straight from the door. Peaceful and impossible not to have a great night’s sleep. And very good access instructions …. no hunting around for key safes after a long journey ! Everything was clear and easy.

A fantastic place to stay - quirky and cosy, and really well located for both the town centre and beautiful riverside walks. Jan is a brilliant host - the welcome supplies and the early check-in were much appreciated it. Would definitely recommend this place.

We had a wonderful stay at Lynne’s cottage. The place is cozy, clean and comfortable. It is minutes from the Main Street. Lynne was a great host, responsive to our messages and thoughtful. She left us fresh milk and bread, hot chocolate and biscuits. We really enjoyed our time in the cottage and would highly recommend anyone who wanted a restful break!

We loved our stay in David’s Thump Cottage. Everything was clean, comfortable and peaceful. We spent a day with David touring the Yorkshire countryside and some beautiful gardens, eventually making our way to a lovely, remote, historical pub. We could not have imagined the beautiful day and friendship we experienced. The town (and all the towns) and area is beyond beautiful. We cooked a few meals in the modern kitchen for breakfast and evening meals (we prefer to be home by dark) or ate leftovers from the huge portions served at restaurants and pubs. (Our afternoons were when we visited the restaurants and pubs.) We plan to return to see David and continue our journey north to Scotland someday ♥️ In other words we highly recommend Thump Cottage 😊 Thank you again, David, for sharing your amazing cottage with us. 🏡

Had a lovely few days at Titus. Wow what a stunning location with views to die for! The space was beautifully decorated and clean, yet homely with all the home comforts you'll ever need. Great communications with the hosts, who went the extra mile to help us out when a local utility went down. Would definitely recommend.

Great location on the lock. lovely views out of all the windows. very peaceful and relaxing. Not far from the Designer Outlet and the P&R is very easy to use. Enjoyed a visit to the nearby Air Museum where there is lots to see. A very enjoyable weekend

Old Forge Cottage was very stylish and comfortable. Great open plan downstairs with smart kitchen area, comfy sofa and separate modern shower room. Fabulous spiral staircase to comfy bed on mezzanine level. I loved it! Wrelton is a small village with pub and bus service in beautiful countryside. I walked to Pickering (as buses not frequent), to catch the morning North York Moors Railway train to Whitby (full day). Visited stunning Whitby Abbey and enjoyed exploring all the shops and eateries along bustling cobbled lanes. Bus rides to Kirbymoreside, Helmsley and Thornton le Dale to visit Mathewsons and Baldersons cafe (tasty breakfast and ice cream!). Coastliner bus all across NY Moors to Whitby and another bus all along the coast to Staithes and Saltburn. Olwen is a lovely lady, extremely helpful and communicative.

My partner and I had a lovely weekend stay at the Teal Cottage. Cosy, relaxing, and perfect for a couples weekend away from the hustle and bustle. The Cottage is located less than 1 min walk away from Boroughbridge town with shops like bakeries, charity shops and even a little corner shop for all your necessities. York only a 40 min drive away, Ripon only 15 mins - there was plenty of local places to go. We will absolutely be staying again in the future.

What a wonderful cottage in Darley. Every possible thing you could need is provided in this comfy, well-decorated, perfectly located little getaway. We were so impressed with the attention to detail in every room. The Aga stove was amazing, so toasty warm in the morning. The kitchen was extremely well-stocked, making meal prep easy. The finishes throughout the cottage felt so high-end, yet so comfortable too. We just used one bedroom upstairs, but the other bedroom had two twin beds which would be perfect for bringing kids along. There were many other child-friendly touches as well, including dishes for kids, books and even a couple of rubber sharks in the bathroom! When you see a place with this level of thoughtful preparation, you know you have found a winner. The town is nice, and we met very friendly people out walking and at the local pub. We will return to Vicky's lovely cottage again for more exploration of the incredible Yorkshire Dales area.
