Chestnut Cottage Southampton, Hampshire

Property Description

This quaint, chocolate box thatched cottage, a Grade II-listed building built in 1590, is found in Beaulieu in the southeast of the New Forest. A period home with great modern touches, it smoothly combines comfort, style and warmth. The kitchen is well suited to larger groups with two fridges and two dishwashers, and we loved the wood burning stoves and luxurious roll top baths. The garden is charming – a veritable fairy-tale setting that will delight guests of all ages – and backs onto meadows that are perfect for stomping through come rain or shine. It couldn't be better located, as on the other side of the house lies Beaulieu High St, with shops, pubs and restaurants just a short walk away.

Home truths:
*This home doesn't have a television but has excellent wi-fi and plenty of board games to entertain
*Bedroom 5 has a double bed but it would be cosy for two
*Two of the bedrooms have zip-and-link beds, so these can both be converted from kings to two singles
