Stunning Cottage | New Forest | Family | Friends, Forest Road

New Forest. Sleeps up to 8

The Hayloft is a stunning two bedroom, two bathroom cottage. It can accommodate up to eight people in the peaceful North of the New Forest. You will love staying here with just the two of you, with friends or family, enjoying long walks in the Forest or visiting one of the quaint Forest villages. Returning after a day exploring, you can enjoy cooking together in the spacious kitchen and having long leisurely meals around the large dining table, before relaxing in front of the fire.

Nestled in the ancient North Ridge of The New Forest National Park, The Hayloft at High Forest Cottages provides a peaceful hideway to relax and enjoy the unique beauty of the forest.

Situated within the forest boundary, inside the cattle grid areas, our regular visitors include the famous ponies and cattle that make the forest such a stunning wildlife environment. Whilst deer are a rare sight, we often welcome a small herd into the paddocks to enjoy some free grazing!

The Hayloft is a beautifully decorated and furnished two bedroom cottage, with its own large sunny and private enclosed garden and gorgeous views across the forest beyond.

The beautiful and spacious open plan living area is perfect for family and friends to relax. Heated by underfloor heating with the addition of a log burner, ensures it is cosy whatever the weather. A basket of wood and kindling is provided for you and you can top this up from the log store throughout your stay. One of the sofas turns into an extra double bed with storage underneath for bedding. The large Smart TV is connected to the WiFi so you can log in to your own Netflix and Amazon accounts.

The kitchen is well-equipped and you can easily cook a Sunday roast if you fancy. There are plenty of pans and dishes, an oven with grill and electric hob. The large fridge/freezer, plenty of storage space and the dishwasher give you that home from home feeling. Dishwasher tablets as well as washing up liquid and tea towels are available for your use. Milk, tea, sugar and ground coffee together with a cafetiere are provided so you can settle in as soon as you arrive. The dining table with seating for eight will facilitate those all important dinner conversations.

Both bedrooms feature a comfortable super king sized bed, which you can choose to have made up as two single beds if required. Additionally each bedroom has a single pull out bed for extra flexibility. All beds are made up with luxury cotton sheets, a 10 tog microfibre duvet and two microfibre pillows per person.
