Lyndhurst - Traditional Capital of the New Forest - The Old Stables holiday cottage is on the High Street in Lyndhurst village. The drive runs down hill and away from the high street behind full height gates, offering you a little seclusion in addition to the convenience of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and local shops being on your doorstep!
You are in the heart of the New Forest at the Old Stables. Walk in any direction out of Lyndhurst and you're sure to come across scenery and landscapes unchanged for hundreds of years. Address: Lyndhurst, Hampshire, SO43 7BB. We also have a New Forest holiday cottage in Brockenhurst which can sleep 18 (up to 28 when combined with the cottage next door) a few miles down the road.
This holiday cottage in the New Forest has been formed from a converted Victorian Stable Block and sleeps 28 people (sleeps 28 from March). The building is full of character, having been used previously by the village primary school, before which it was in use as the name would suggest. The conversion gives you all the convenience of a modern building, with all the charm of an old stable block in the forest.
Walking along the driveway from the entrance opposite St Michaels Church, The Old Stables runs on down the hil and away from the high street. It is built with soft red brick and the roof has been re-tiled using hand made clay peg tiles. The stable setts which formed the area of hard-standing outside the original stable block have been incorporated in the renovation as a pedestrian pathway running along the edge of the building.
Parking is at the bottom and top ends of this new forest cottage, please note, parking is strictly prohibited along the front of the property - the school opposite has joint right of access over this land.
