Brilliant stay! The house is large enough for nine people and has a huge garden. It has all modern finishes and everything you could want for a friend or family vacation. The location does require a car, but it's an easy drive to the local beaches and activities.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear that you and your group enjoyed the space, the garden, and all the modern touches. It's great to know the house worked well for your vacation. We agree a car makes exploring the nearby beaches and attractions much easier, and we're glad you found it convenient. We'd love to welcome you back anytime!
We have just returned from a wonderful stay at Willow cottage! The cottage is beautifully clean and feels very bright and fresh. A great location for both the New Forest and sea too!

Hi Ian, thanks for your excellent review. It was a pleasure hosting you. We agree that it's a great location on a quiet road. I'm so pleased to hear the whole family LOVED the cottage! Regarding the kitchen, this is first feedback we’ve had of that, and we will replenish the kitchen ASAP as seems some things may of gone ‘missing’ thank you for your understanding and we’d love to have you back!
The property was everything we hoped for. Beautifully clean and well equipped with everything you would need. The house is in a lovely lovely location close to some beautiful villages in the forest and not far from lovely beaches. Some delicious brownies left for us on arrival which was a really nice touch. We would definitely love to visit Willow Cottage again.

Thank you so much for staying with us, would love to have you back again.
We had a good stay at Willow Cottage. Location ideal for getting to the new forest towns however wished there were more nearby forest walks. The cottage was lovely and garden a huge plus for the kids. Could be more child friendly as the lounge rug was slippy, a radiator box unscrewed to wall. But we were happy with the amenities overall. check in and check out no issues.

Thanks so much for staying, we are so glad you enjoyed the place we agree it is in the ideal location. The garden being the ideal place for children to run as you’ve mentioned. The lounge rug we’ve never had this raised as an issue by multiple familiars over the year but will get an anti slip under it. The rad box was screwed on prior to your check in it seems a little person might of thought it was a climbing frame! 😄 anyway would be lovely to have you back again warmest
This was the perfect place for two families to meet up. You can’t walk anywhere from the house but there are loads of places to visit with a short drive. The kitchen is well equipped, the rooms spacious and the house is very up together. The garden is perfect for kids running around but I get the sense that the neighbours have had a hard time with noise in the past - this is not the place for late nights and loud music. Not an issue for us at all.

It sounds like your stay was just what you were hoping for, and we're happy to have been part of your trip!
Such a shame that I have to leave a bad review. The cottage was fine and it was in a good location. We had a lovely time in the New Forest . However, I was overcharged and one month later I am still waiting to be reimbursed . I have called and emailed numerous times and have not had a response . So disappointed .

Hi Priya thanks for your message it's such a shame that you felt the need to leave a 2-star review over this (and our only 2 star review to date) which has nothing to do with the cottage and experience. For the sake of clarity your original messages went to spam, as soon as you left a voice message our team located the emails in junk and immediately paid the £165.00. In fact this has already been paid to you prior to this review date and time. On top of that we had planned to pay a £50 goodwill gesture on top of that today. We wish you the best but are disappointed in how you have portrayed this. Such shame. Also for the sake of other guests, the overcharge happened due to the many changes Priya kept making to her booking, (making two bookings/ changing the dates /wanting to add a date etc.) So this was a genuine oversight due to the confusion of the many changes.
