Lovely cottage & garden. 5 min drive from Paultons Park, home of Peppa Pig

Thimble Cottage sleeps up to 6 guests plus 2 babies.
It is a delightful holiday cottage that provides the best of old world charm combined with modern convenience, offering spacious accomodation with character and style.

This pretty 17th century thatched cottage is furnished to a high standard with 2 living rooms and plenty of comfortable seating.

It is our family holiday home. We also have lots of things young children require including toys which reduces what you need to bring. We also have a well equipped kitchen so cooking at the cottage is easy and we also have need a bean to cup coffee machine. There is a dinning table which seats six and two high chairs.

The garden is large and fully enclosed with two seating areas and a gas BBQ.

Located just north of Lyndhurst we are just 5 mins drive from Paultons Park, the home of Peppa Pig world and a 25 min drive (at the right time of day) from the beach at Mudeford. Obviously there are also all the activites of The Forest itself including walks, cycle paths and pubs.

Please note due to insurance restrictions the wood burner is not available for guests to use.

Perfect for Paultons park visit
We had a lovely time. We were staying to visit Paultons park and it was a 7 minute drive away. The cottage is spacious and well equipped. Beds were comfortable. Would book again

Period cottage easily accessible for long distance travellers
The cottage lives up to its period look with various features such as low beamed ceilings and a quirky layout. The modern kitchen with conservatory and family area was lovely and bright, and the garden a delight to sit in for our morning coffee. One main bathroom & a utility room containing a shower room was fine, but the 2nd toilet was as far from the bedrooms as it could possibly be, tucked away downstairs accessible via a storeroom. We are 5 female friends in our 50s and thoroughly enjoyed our stay with cosy evenings at home accompanied by hearty homemade food and a glass or 3 of good wine.

Pre-Christmas break
This property was perfect for a short getaway. There was plenty of space for us (5 adults and one baby) and we loved the cosy living room. The house was really clean and had everything we needed, and was a great location for nearby Lyndhurst and Brockenhurst. Everything about the stay was very straightforward - we would definitely use again.

Lovely Cottage just off the New Forest.
This was a great find. We had 4 adults and two young children. The cottage was large and had more than enough of inside and outside space. Everything needed for a great holiday.
