Great quiet location, set back from river. 30 minute walk to Bucklers Hard one way, the other way 20 minutes walk to Beaulieu. Nice and clean accommodation, a much appreciated hamper on arrival.

Absolutely enjoyed my week in the Crows Nest :-) The wrap around balcony was amazing to sit out on and listen to the birds with a good book. With easy access walks to Beaulieu and Buckler's Hard, I couldn't fault the location. The wood burning fire was absolutely perfect, my dog really enjoyed warming herself by it.

Nice location, very clean well equipped lodge however if you want a view you could be disappointed as only tree tops to be seen from the balcony. Bedroom small but feels smaller with the over powering wardrobes with cupboards you would need stilts to reach. However very comfortable bed, sofa and lovely little welcome pack

The Crow's Nest was possibly our favourite cottage we have stayed in and we've stayed in quite a few! The courtesy call regarding the complimentary hamper contents (such a nice touch) and the detailed and accurate directions to the property all promised a good week and we weren't disappointed. The property is fabulous, the location amongst the treeRead mores and birds absolutely beautiful. We were blessed with the weather and could have stayed forever! We hope to return. Thank you. Hide

This is a delightful cabin to stay in - we loved it. The decoration is very nice, there is pretty much everything you need available in the cabin. The view over the trees is lovely and it is so restful to sit on the balcony after a day out and enjoy the sun. The walk to Beaulieu (plenty of cafes and an art shop) and Bucklers Hard (pub/hotel and musRead moreeum) are easy and worth doing. Being in the New Forest is a treat - the wild ponies and donkeys, the forest itself and the pretty villages. Hide
