About this property

Cottage with Covered Hot Tub, sleeps 6 Godshill New Forest National Park

Recently finished 2 year renovation to high standard as it is our home.

Please check out my mothers property with swim spa called 'Crossroads Cottage' located in Frogham - less than 10 minutes away. You can check reviews and service you will receive.

Lane End is a spacious homely cottage situated in the village of Godshill within the New Forest National Park. The cottage is great for couples, families or friends to enjoy with unbroken tree-top views of the countryside, perfect for a short break or a holiday.

Smart TV with Netflix and Amazon Prime Video and catch up tv.

Endless walks in the New Forest are on the doorstep with miles of heath land to explore by foot or bike.

Round off the day with a glass of champagne watching the sunset or a stroll up to the local pub 3 minutes away. There is a cedar hot tub - checkout urban cedar hot tubs, it is positioned to take in the setting sun and has a bespoke 'Gazebo' which ensures rain does not stop play and stops the oak leaves falling in!

We have converted the cob house to a games room with a pool table and darts board and also now have an outdoor table tennis table for family or group 'competitions'.

Important Suggestion: A Monday or Friday change over may help with the heavy holiday traffic problems over the weekend, during the peak summer months
Contact us with your personal requirements any day is possible, or any other day at certain times.

For the last two years, with my brother and parents we have transformed Lane End into a beautiful home. Unlike other rental properties, this is my home and is furnished as such. The cottage is only available for limited periods in the year.

Lovely relaxing stay in beautiful location.

We stayed for a relaxing weekend break as friends. This was ideal for walking and the well equipped kitchen meant we could prepare anything we needed. Spent some time in the hot tub and as well as the wildlife on walks, we were able to watch a deer in the garden.

We stayed for 3 nights in February and apart from struggling to get the heating to come on when we first arrived, it was a very lovely and comfy (and later very warm and cosy!) house. Hot tub was great!

We had a wonderful three-night stay at Lane End. The cottage feels instantly welcoming and homely, with lovely views over the fields - we enjoyed watching the cows wander by in the mornings. It’s peaceful, private, and a great place to unwind.The house has loads of space, and the bedrooms were even bigger and more comfortable than we expected. The kitchen had everything we needed, and the welcome basket was a thoughtful touch. We loved relaxing in the hot tub in the evenings, and the games room was a nice bonus - ended up teaching the kids how to play pool, which was great fun.You can really tell how much care has gone into making this a special place. It’s beautifully done, full of character, and we’d happily return.

About the host

Hosted by Tim Would with Chris and my mum helps Angela

Host profile image
My brother and I were born here (well in Salisbury Hospital ) and went school in Hyde and Burgate. We both work in London. Renovation is in our blood our parents have renovated many properties, from our family home in Frogham to student properties and holiday homes abroad. We have helped since we could hold a tool in our hands! We follow the family ethos that a property can be shared at certain times as it can provide a home for a holiday, whilst keeping the property occupied and cared for when other commitments take you elsewhere.

Why they chose this property

Beautiful elevated position on the top of a slope, with views across the trees and countryside. The garden has sun all day long in various seating areas.It is a quiet area where busy lives can be left at the gatepost.

What makes this property unique

Views, sun, tranquility. Unspoilt walks in forests and open 'forest'/commons. Beautiful garden and home. Several seating areas for meals and a cedar hot tub to really relax in.
