  • "We had a fab time at Amberwood 42."

    The lodge is to a really high standard and the added touches just make it a bit more special. Great communication from the owners. The lodge is situated on Shorefield Country Park and the facilities on site are also really good. Dog friendly lodge and site. Would recommend to anyone.

  • "We had a wonderful stay at Amberwood 42."

    The lodge was comfortable and beautiful overlooking the lake. Best position on the site, it was peaceful and tranquil and we were lucky enough to have lovely weather too. We would like to point out though, and this was the only minor problem, the hand rails on the steps felt a little insecure but I’m sure this could be easily fixed. Overall we feel it was one of the best holiday accommodation we’ve ever stayed in and therefore we’ll be returning.

    Hi Barbara. So glad you enjoyed your stay and thank you for the helpful comments regarding the hand rail - we will get onto it. Look forward to welcoming you back soon. Lisa and Andy Property Owner

    I would go as far as to say its the best lodge I've stopped in. The site is also clean and you feel very safe. The only negative is having to vacate the lodge at 10 am. Lunch time would have been a lot better. I will most definitely be visiting Bertie again

    Hello Wayne. Thank you for your lovely words and I do understand your comments regarding the checkout time. Unfortunately as we have to be ready for the next guests, this does somewhat dictate the checkout time. Hopefully see you back again. Andy and Lisa Property Owner

  • "Probably the nicest situated lodge on the site."

    I can't vouch for school holiday time, but our week was so calm, peaceful and relaxing with everything we needed, and suited my husband with limited mobility (4 steps only and adjacent car parking). The surrounding grounds were clean, tidy and well maintained. The pond was a beautiful setting and 2 seating areas on the deck meant you could always find the sun. We didn't actually use the on-site entertainment facilities or pools as I preferred the shortcut walk to the beach. A steep pebbly beach with steps, so shoes recommended rather than flip flops, but lovely views and walks. The dog welcome pack and towel a nice touch.

    Thanks Hilary for the lovely feedback. So pleased the lodge met your needs and you have a good break. Kind regards Lisa and Andy Property Owner

    We were looking for a peaceful week away and the location of the property is wonderful being on a small lake in the quieter part of a country park. We have a dog and there are beautiful walks and most places we visited were dog friendly. Milford on sea is just a couple of miles away and has a beautiful beach and some great restaurants.

    It’s a fantastic lodge in a fantastic location and is spotlessly clean, comfortable and has everything you need. The Country Park that it’s set in is beautiful, loved my early morning walks with the dog listening to the birds. Had the most relaxing stay, so peaceful. Milford on Sea is a lovely village and just a short drive away, along with Lymington and New Milton. Thank you Lisa for the best stay, you should be very proud of your lodge and everything it offers!

    Although the week we had away we experienced the most awful weather the lodge was cosy and warm and every creature comfort was afforded to us. The detail to ensure our stay was perfect was second to none. Lisa was very accommodating with organising our parking permit and we would have no hesitation whatsoever in booking this lodge again at some point in the future. Please convey our thanks to the owners Lisa and Andy for allowing us to share a week in their beautiful property.

  • "42 Amberwood was lovely."

    Lisa was an excellent host. I would definitely recommend 42 Amberwood. The park was below par. We booked the location partially because of on site facilities, particularly the on site gym. My son is a competitive athlete and we exercise most days. Unfortunately, when we tried to use the gym, we were told that my son couldn't use the gym, as he isn't yet 16. This was not published anywhere prior to booking. The owner of Amberwood, Lisa, contacted the park for us, and was told that the age restriction is on a notice on the door of the gym (very helpful!!). We had two meals on-site. The first experience was very good. The second meal was really not good. We were seated and orders taken. We then waited for 30 minutes for drinks (eventually going to the bar to collect ourselves). The meal cam after an hour. We finished our main and the waitress asked if we wanted a sweet. I asked how long this would take and she told me "around an hour". Several tables were also waiting for a long time. There was no communication from waiting staff. When I asked why there was a delay, I was told it was because they were busy. In summary, the accommodation was excellent, Lisa was very helpful. The park itself was a let down. Very poor customer service and a lack of regard for customers point of view.

    Hi Clark. Please accept my sincere apologies for the disappointment these experiences have caused you. We always strive to provide the best possible holiday for our guests, and it is disheartening to learn that Shorefields Country Park fell short of your expectations. Your feedback is incredibly valuable to us, and I have shared your comments with Shorefields regarding the age limit at the Gym and your sub-standard meal at the Beachcomber Bar and Restaurant. I have also taken on board your comments about the listing for Amberwood 42 and will make sure it is clear that the Gym is for 16 plus. With best wishes Lisa and Andy Property Owner

The property

Tucked away in the pretty seaside location of Milford on Sea in Hampshire, is this fabulous single-storey lodge, Amberwood 42.

Boasting all ground-floor accommodation, lakeside views and close proximity to the New Forest National Park, Amberwood 42 welcomes up to four guests and one four-legged friend to bask in the ultimate escape to Hampshire.

Upon entering your new home-from-home, kick back and relax in the homely sitting area as the electric stove roars away next to you; allow the allocated chef of the group to rustle up a tasty feast for the whole family in the well-equipped kitchen, ready to be enjoyed at the dining table over a bottle of celebratory fizz!

If you prefer, why not step out onto the enclosed decking and take advantage of alfresco mealtimes on the outdoor furniture with stunning views of the lake as your backdrop; this is also the perfect spot to delight in a coffee and enjoy the morning sun.

When the evening draws to a close, retreat to the bathroom to wash away the day with a soak in the tub or revitalising shower or opt for a king-size bedroom with its very own handy en-suite facilities!

There is also another king-size bedroom, the perfect place to unwind before catching your rest ahead of another day of exciting adventures.

If you can tear yourself away, begin your exploration along the coast at Highcliffe or Avon Beach, where you can paddle the shores, soak in the sun’s rays during the warmer months or simply just admire the far-reaching coastal views.

Spend the day in the lovely local village of Milford on Sea where you can tour the grounds of Hurst Castle, embark on a scenic stroll along the Solent Way or delight in traditional fish and chips with the quaint New Beach Huts in your backdrop.

Shorefield Country Park also has much to offer including indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a tennis court, sports activities and a spa where you can treat your loved ones.

Close by, enjoy the delights of Lymington, home to Lymington Sea Water Baths, St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery and Lymington Nature Reserve, in addition to a plethora of independent stores, pubs and restaurants, perfect for refueling after a tiresome day.

From your doorstep you can also venture to Highcliffe Castle if you prefer to immerse yourself in the local history.

Well-positioned to also traverse all that the New Forest National Park has to offer, such as the National Motor Museum, Blackwater Arboretum and Palace House, you’ll seldom be short of things to do or see.

If you don't feel like leaving your new home-from-home, make use of the nearby lake to try your hand at a spot of fishing.

Whisk your loved ones away on an exciting adventure to Hampshire, with a stay at Amberwood 42.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
