New Forest cliff top apartment with distant view of the Needles
Come and stay in our fantastic refurbished apartment on the clifftop in beautiful Barton-on-Sea. We've named our apartment 'Stones Throw' as it is just a stones' throw from stunning Barton Beach which overlooks the Isle of Wight to the east and Hengistbury Head and Christchurch Bay to the west.
What's more it's on the doorstep of the New Forest National Park so you can enjoy both coast and countryside during your stay without having to travel very far at all. Within a half hour drive you can visit picturesque Lymington with its maritime history, Hurst Spit and Castle, historic Christchurch and numerous beautiful destinations in the Forest with its freely roaming ponies and abundant wildlife and well as a great selection of stunning beaches. You could even venture across the Solent on a day trip to the Isle of Wight from nearby Lymington. If you want to stay put you can enjoy a delicious lunch at the Beachcomber Cafe just over the road or spend your time swimming or just relaxing on Barton Beach.
Our apartment is ground floor and has double doors leading onto a patio and guests have use of the communal garden which looks out to sea. The main living area has a modern open plan kitchen, a dining table with four chairs, sofa bed and arm chair, plus TV. You can see the famous Needles off the Isle of Wight from the lounge window. The bedroom is a good size with a double bed and wardrobe and there's a bright and fresh modern bathroom with a double sized shower.
We do accept well behaved pets so if you want to bring them there is a £22 per pet fee (max of 2).
Your hosts Ian and Jill look forward to welcoming you to Stones Throw soon.

Excellent place to stay. Apartment had everything we needed for our stay, comfortable and very clean. Great location, cliff top and beach are across the road and plenty of pubs/restaurants nearby.
Well equipped, renovated apartment opposite the beachGreat restaurants with good food & friendly staff. A breathtaking view across to the Isle of Wight & lots to do in the area
Ian and Jill were excellent hosts for my husband and son who traveled from America for the funeral of my father-in-law. We were thankful to find such a lovely property so close to my in-laws in New Milton.
Great location for us, right opposite a walk down to the beach and a good eaterie - Beachcomber and a lovely ice cream parlour next door.Great hosts left us fresh milk in the fridge and coffee/tea/sugar too - thanks!
Beautifully clean, smelt lovely throughout, comfy bed, fresh cosy linen/ duvet. Heating very good. All kitchen ware spot on. Thank you for a lovely stay. In the write up with Vrbo ( when you click on bedroom photo) it says to bring your own bedding.. but thankfully didn’t have to.
Excellent place to stay, had everything we needed and was spotless. We only stayed two nights, but would definitely come back for longer as there was plenty of space, facilities for just right and everything was clean.
It didn't bother us, but others may find the noise from other flats, especially in the hallway, bothersome.
We only stayed for 2 nights but could not of picked a better location to stay. Apartment was clean and very well equipped and the hosts left some milk so we could have a cuppa on arrival. The cliff top is literally 20metres away with plenty of walks available overlooking the Isle of Wight .
We would happily return and stay again.
Great little apartment, in an ideal location. A short stroll to Barton beach and cliff top walks.
The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had all the equipment to make basic meals if needed. There are plenty of good café, pubs and restaurants locally.
Only minor niggle, was having to provide towels.
Very nice property in a lovely location close to all amenities and seafront. It was clean and cosy which made for a lovely break away. The only thing that would have improved the stay would have been a fridge freezer or freezer compartment in the fridge. Apart from that we would give 10 out of 10 for the property.
Great weekend at Stones Throw, just the perfect location for what we wanted to do during our stay in Barton.
A lovely touch was the pint of milk in the fridge so we were able to have a cuppa after our journey😊😊
Looking forward to making a return visit to Stones Throw.
