Cottage holiday rentals in Colwell Bay

A lovely last minute getaway to the New Forest. Cindy couldn’t have been more accommodating getting some essentials in at short nice (a thoughtful touch at any time) and making lots of great recommendations for the local area. Located a short drive from the main locations and with plenty of forest friends to be seen along the way. The place itself was just as described and so peaceful. It had enough space for our 9 yr old and 5 yr old to sleep across the landing from us comfortably and was surprisingly warm in the bedrooms. Main bed nice and comfy and space downstairs for the 4 of us to unwind after a day out roaming.

We had a fabulous stay with family here.The kids especially loved the hot tub and table tennis.The kitchen was really well equipped so it was easy to cook and serve for a group…the beds were comfortable.Theres a shop in walking distance and the house is 2 minutes from the edge of the forest….took us 6 minutes to reach Lyndhurst.Came home very relaxed!Thank you for having us!

The hosts were helpful from the moment we booked our stay. We were given clear instructions on where to arrive and were greeted as soon as we pulled into the carpark. They explained all the necessary information and answered all of our questions and were very helpful. They were always available if we had any queries and gave plenty of local recommendations for food and activities. We would 100% recommend and would be more than happy to book again.

We had a great stay, the lodge was easy to find and great location in a lovely area and short walk to the train station for access to the wider area. The spa was a great addition to an overall very relaxing weekend would definitely book again and highly recommend to anyone else looking to book.

We had such a fantastic time in Jocelyn and David’s Air B & B with our 11 month old twins. The place is very child friendly with cots, highchairs and plenty of toys which our twins loved to play with. Everything is very cosy and comfortable (with comfy sofas and beds) and the kitchen is well equipped. Everything was also very clean. We also enjoyed having a glass of wine in the hot tub after we put our twins to bed. It is in a great location with plenty of great nearby pubs and walks. A big highlight was all the amazing gentle and friendly animals - horses, a donkey, and chickens to name a few which we and our twins enjoyed going to see every morning. We also thought Jocelyn and David were thoughtful hosts and very friendly. We would thoroughly recommend to families or couples. We hope to be back soon! Thank you Jocelyn and David!

We had a lovely stay, the place was very comfortable and we had all amenities needed. The hosts were very responsive and helpful.

The bothy didn’t disappoint. Beautiful and peaceful. The cottage had everything you needed with a wood burner and hot tub which we enjoyed using . Chrissy was a great host , checking in to make sure we had everything we needed for our stay . I would recommend having breakfast at the potting shed and there also a lovely pub which is in walking distance. We had a lovely relaxing few days and wouldn’t hesitate recommending this beautiful place . We will be back !!!.

Neil was a great and flexible host. We based ourselves in the Airbnb over Christmas and he made a special effort to make it feel festive, with a Christmas tree and decorations. On arrival he came to welcome us and show us how the stove and hot tub worked. The house was spotlessly clean and comfortable and everything done to a high standard. Directions to the cottage were 100 % easy to follow. Highly recommend.

Just wonderful. Look no further. So cozy and so clean and so luxurious. The hamper was incredible. We left very early to see the winter solstice at Stonehenge. Perfect location. We will be back. Five adults, a baby and a diff fitted wonderfully. Thank you so much . This is The rolls Royce of airbnb❤️🩶🤍

Perfect location for all the needs of our visit, super friendly and responsive host. Exactly what we were looking for

Great little place as described, had everything you could want. Lovely cosy fire. Fabulous walks on the door step. Dog was welcome even some little treats. We enjoyed our stay. Very peaceful. Ian was responsive and always available, great communication. Definitely plan to return, loads more to explore.

Ruth’s property was lovely and everything was just as described. The location was stunning and provided an excellent location for exploring the village and its surroundings. We would definitely come and stay again!

We enjoyed our second stay at the old barn, homely quiet location with walks nearby for our old dog.

Beautiful cottage in lovely, peaceful surroundings. Attention to detail was spot on with thoughtful additional touches like flowers, oat milk, decaf teabags that makes you feel at home. Would recommend to anybody looking for a cosy break.

We had a lovely stay at Brushwood Cottage! The moment we arrived, we were in awe of the character and history that this cottage holds. The location is perfect for anyone wanting a quiet getaway with easy access to local attractions. The surrounding countryside is stunning, and we enjoyed exploring the nearby walking trails. The cottage had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The garden was also a perfect spot for morning coffee and great for our 2 dogs. It’s clear that a lot of care and attention has gone into preserving the cottage’s historic charm while making it a comfortable and convenient place to stay.

Lovely, clean, well equipped, cosy cottage in a beautiful area. Jo was really quick to respond to any questions and left a very delicious cake to welcome us. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Highly recommended!

Very nice and lovely place. Good weekend escape from London. Also the cookies and apple juice in the house was super nice touch.

I would highly recommend staying at Sandra's beautiful cottage. It is so well equipped, comfortable and cosy - a real home from home - and idea for long and short stays. Everything was immaculate and the bed and sofas were so comfy. And Cookie loved the dog bed and bowls that were provided. Sandra has provided lots of ideas for trips and places to eat locally. We will definitely return!

Great stay! Nice little place, very clean, just off the high street near all the restaurants bars and shops!

An outstanding, idyllic country cottage house with a beautiful period interior, yet modernised kitchen. Hosts communicated very well and the house was clean and tidy. Hosts responded and acted quickly to a last minute request made. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you Kate for a glorious weekend stay for our babymoon. It was the perfect setting, very relaxing and beautiful with loads to do in the surrounding area, topped off by some stellar sunshine this weekend!

Cathia was an incredible host and made me feel so welcome. I was staying with my bridesmaids for my wedding and Cathia made the trip extra special. She is super responsive and her place is beautiful! Thank you so much!

Lucy is a brilliant host, very responsive and friendly too. The cottage is in a great location and it's easy to get to the local shops and restaurants. Parking is easy and the cottage has everything you need and more. It's a lovely place to stay.

This was our second visit and we will definitely be back. Lyn is a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome. The accommodation is absolutely superb and the setting is very peaceful .
