Oak Tree Sanctuary

Holiday Rental Description

Nestled away underneath an oak tree in the middle of the New Forest, this rural escape is as cute as they come. Inside the loft space, there's a rustic simplicity that manages to avoid back-to-basics territory. The living area, for instance, with its oak floor and a blue velvet sofa will see you through many a cosy evening, while the bedroom is given a bit of glamour with a sparkling chandelier. Outside, there's a small garden and patio complete with a barbecue for when the sun makes an appearance. When that's the case, there are plenty of outside excursions to embark upon nearby. Guests can start on forest walks straight out of the garden gate and it's possible to hire bikes from Burley village — about twenty-five minutes' walk away — if you want to pick up the pace a little. The White Buck gastropub is only a sixteen-minute walk away too for when you've earned some refreshment.

Home truths:
*The home is on the first floor above a garage and is only reachable by stairs, so it might not be suitable for guests with reduced mobility
*Guests need to make sure the garden gate is always closed as the local wildlife — ponies, pigs and cows — can cause damage to the garden
*There's one parking space on the premises for guests
*In the kitchenette, there's no hob or oven, but only a Panasonic combination oven
