Oak Tree Cottage, Charming & Rural Home, Heart of the New Forest

Nestled on the edge of the village of Pilley, in the New Forest National Park is Oak Tree Cottage. With forest tracks on the doorstep, it is ideally situated for relaxing and exploring the New Forest and villages along the South coast. The local ponies and donkeys are frequent visitors to our lane, as they roam freely in the immediate area. Our cottage is tastefully furnished throughout with adequate parking, large garden and barbecue provided for the summer months. There is no traffic noise. Oak Tree cottage is situated within easy reach of the Georgian market town of Lymington, with its lovely cobbled street, quay, array of individual shops and Saturday market, and in the other direction, the quaint village of Beaulieu with its famous National Motor Museum. The Isle of Wight can be reached easily by taking the ferry from Lymington and from nearby Brockenhurst there is a rail link connecting to Bournemouth, Southampton and London Waterloo.

Oak Tree is perfectly situated in the heart of the New Forest for day trips or pleasant walks. Having never been before, this was just the peaceful and relaxing experience we all needed. Seeing animals every day and walking the forest, including amongst some of the oldest trees and giant red woods. Lots of amazing pubs all around with great food and Beaulieu Car museum and Palace close by. After a day of touring, the sunroom was such a relaxing space to have tea and reconnect with family. This is a beautiful home away from home.
Each morning walk was met with Donkeys grazing just steps away.

the whole house was clean and host very helpful.The conservatory was great to sit in. Location is great too.Only thing I would say is that if 6 adults are staying it probably needs another shower! The bathroom only has a tub and a handheld shower! We all used the en suite shower! Not a big problem and we managed. The bathrooms were very clean! The kitchen had everything you could want!

Wonderful stay

What a wonderful accommodation in a fantastic location. Our host kept in contact to make sure our stay was comfortable. Such a peaceful area and yet so close to walks in the New Forest. The surrounding towns were worth visiting. All I can say is that 2 nights weren’t long enough so need to return as soon as possible.

Superb cottage

We stayed here for a weekend break, with 3 adults, a 4 year old and 19m old. Communication with jenny and Iain was fantastic from the booking to check out. Check in was really straightforward and we were welcomed with a few gifts and personal note. The accommodation was clean, spacious and homely. They provided us with a travel cot and mattress, high chair, kids tablewear/cutlery, toys and games. All the beds were comfy, the location is quiet and peaceful we all slept really well.

Beautiful cottage, great location

Myself, my Mum and two sisters had a wonderful stay here. The cottage is perfect and extremely homely. It's in a great location as only a short drive to the local towns and beaches. We got our food (Tesco) shop delivered with no problems at all and got to see lots of wild donkeys. We would definitely stay again and would definitely recommend for others to stay here too. Thank you very much Jenny and Ian :-) xx

Daughters wedding weekend

The perfect location and a real home from home (but much tidier!). The moment we set foot in the cottage we felt relaxed and ready to make all the final preparations necessary. Jenny was really accommodating when we made our enquiry as we needed to be sure it was OK for the wedding car, photographer etc to arrive on the Saturday which was all fine. The cottage is quiet, spacious and very comfortable, it would make a perfect base for a longer stay from which to really discover all the New Forest has to offer. Thank you so much, despite one of the wettest weekends of the year we were able to have the ideal base to work from. Perfect!!

A sanctuary!

I had been in contact with Jenny before our stay due to concerns over Covid as having recently had treatment for cancer, I wanted to know about cleanliness etc. I needn’t have worried! Jenny explained what cleaning procedures had been carried out and a link to the company whose cleaning products they’d used. The property was beautifully kept. Off street parking in a quiet area, warm and welcoming - a proper home from home. Ideally situated for a walk on the nearby forest and common area with good access to local places. We did have one issue with a leaking sink plug in the bathroom but I contacted Jenny and the issue was sorted out within a couple of hours. These things happen but it’s about the way it was dealt with as opposed to the issue itself. I would heartily recommend this cottage to anyone for a break - a full five stars from us!

Great rural location

We had a great stay at the property that was in a lovely location with very close access to the New Forest, a short walk along the road. The property itself was a good size and well-proportioned rooms, and was very well-equipped with everything you could need. It was a nice touch from the owners to leave some treats for us to enjoy. The cleanliness of the property was second to none, very welcome given the current situation with Covid 19. We'd certainly like to return at some point. Thank you Jenny and Ian.
