“We had a lovely 2 weeks at Orchard Annexe.”

Bill and Val were extremely hospitable and there was everything we needed at the accommodation to make our stay enjoyable. We will certainly be booking to come again.

“Very clean and comfortable, with all the equipment we needed.”

We enjoyed watching the birds and squirrels on the lawn as we ate breakfast. We recommend the Annexe as an ideal base for exploring the Forest.

Geoffrey June 2022

“A great place to explore the New Forest.”

Plenty of attractions nearby as well as many walks. The Annex was very comfortable and clean on arrival. I would recommend this as a good base for the area.

Martin April 2022

“Excellent holiday accommodation which was spotlessly clean and comfortable.”

The kitchen area was well equipped and the cutlery and crockery were of a good quality. We enjoyed walks in the surrounding area and visited Beaulieu motor museum, Lymington and Exbury Gardens during a sunny week.

“This was a cosy (warm), tucked-away cottage, very private even though it’s beside the owners’ home.”

It’s good value for money; not grand, but an ideal base for exploring the New Forest and the south coast. The WiFi worked fine in the living room.

Very friendlY owners and very comfortable accomodation however if visiting in the winter months I would recommend taking a small electric fire as to booster the heating which seems to be turned down from the big house during mid evening otherwise a great time was had by my wife and myself

“The Annexe is comfortable, warm and well equipped and the owners are very friendly.”

The property is a good base from which to explore the New Forest and coast. There are plenty of good walks - we managed to clock up over 60 miles during the week, both in the woods and along the coast and estuary walks. The only minor drawback is you can't really walk directly from the property as the road outside is very fast, so you have to drive to a suitable starting point. That said, everything is within easy reach. Some others have commented on road noise but we didn't hear anything. It was lovely to see deer coming into the garden to feed on the fallen apples, and of course there are New Forest ponies everywhere. It was strange to see highland cattle wandering along Brockenhurst High Street as though they owned the place! A very enjoyable week and highly recommended.

“The owners are very friendly and the garden is lovely.”

Very private with views to open countryside. The garden is also surrounded by orchards.

“Nice little annex, very clean and well equipped.”

Lovely garden, managed to get some super photos of the family of deer. The only drawback is the WiFi connection, it is terrible! We think the signal comes from the main house next door and is very weak. It was constantly on and off, and we could only get it in certain parts of the cottage. This was a pain as we had a teenager with us. We enjoyed the new forest and the coast, both within a short drive away. Enjoyed evening strolls along the numerous marinas in the area. Can recommend the Red Lion in Boldre and the Monkey brewhouse just a couple of minutes drive away towards Lymington for dining. Overall we had a lovely holiday in the annex.

- Stephen, August 2021
Denise August 2021

“Had a great holiday.”

Orchard cottage is a very nice place to stay. Only downside is the noisy road nearby. Had to leave windows shut at night due to the noise.

John July 2021

“This is our second year at Orchard Annex.”

Both Bill and Val are lovely hosts. The accommodation is perfect for our needs. The garden space is beautiful with all sorts of wildlife visiting the garden while we were there (birds, squirrel, rabbit and deer) We will be back again next year

“The Owners Valarie and Bill are so welcoming and are very knowledgeable, so helpful nothing is too much for them always there if you need them.”

The bungalow is exceptionally clean and beds are so comfortable. This is our third time of booking and can’t wait to book again. Perfect location for everything would highly recommend the red lion pub food is amazing especially Sunday lunch, would also recommend the Boathouse in Christchurch. Lovely walks easy access to all the lovely places.

Edward April 2021

“The cottage is in a great location,not overlooked and good views of the surrounding countyside.”

The cottage itself was very comfortable and well equipped. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. I would not hesitate to return

Aimee October 2020

“We had an amazing time, the annex was just as expected and the couple that owed it were very welcoming and friendly.”

The living room was spacious yet cosy and the kitchen had everything you would need including a washing machine and dishwasher. The double bedroom has a large wardrobe and two bedside tables with lights, the single bedroom also has a similar set up and the bathroom was also clean and tidy. Even though it rained pretty much every day we still managed to enjoy the garden and even saw two beautiful deer eating some of the apples that had fallen from a tree. Only thing we did notice was that the Tv and Wi-Fi signal would sometimes cut out especially when the wind and rain were in full force, but we knew that being in The New Forest the signals could be interrupted but it didn't affect our time to much as we came to enjoy the beautiful surroundings. Would definitely recommend to anyone who wants to enjoy the comforts of 'home' while being on holiday.

“Lovely quiet private location.”

Very convenuent and warm.

David August 2020

“Very private and quiet.”

A bit isolated this suited us but would not suite everybody. The host family were nice. The only drawback was the busy A337 road particularly in August. We could hear it in the night sometimes. Being on one level was important to us particularly my wife who is disabled. There are facilities near by. At the bottom of the hill is a co-op garage and shop. The Red Lion pub in Boldre is about one mile, they do nice Meals. There are Supermarkets in nearby Lymington.

John July 2020

“We have just come beck from a 2 week stay at Orchard House.”

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house is set in a wonderful area surrounded by apple trees and views of open fields from the garden. The owners are very friendly making us feel very welcome. We will be going back.

Fiona July 2020

“We had a lovely holiday at the annexe in July 2020.”

The annexe is amazing , the facilities are more than adequate. We loved seeing the deer In The garden as well as the Birds . It is the ideal position to explore the new forest and coast. Can’t wait to return Fiona and Richard

Annie October 2019

“The annex was very comfortable for 3 adults, good value and quiet.”

The owners are friendly and available if needed. I had been concerned about the nearness to a main road but we couldn't hear it at all. The annex is very well situated for the New Forest and the coast, our first time here and we loved cycling in the magical forest. Annie

Steven August 2019

“Perfect little getaway in a beautiful place.”

Accommodation was spotless, cosy and hosts Bill and Val lovely! We would recommend Orchard Annex in a heartbeat and would love to return another time. The 3 deer in the garden was a particular treat for our little girl. Worth noting though that the wifi or 4g wasn’t great so be aware. 10 out of 10 from us though.
