  • "Had a great week in Stones Throw."

    The cottage was comfortable for us and our dog, plus our son who stayed two nights. Comfortable beds, including the bunk bed and spacious kitchen diner. The stairs are very steep, but fine for us. Very grateful that the owner obtained a parking permit so that we could park outside the property. A ten minute walk into Lymington for shops, pubs and restaurants. And very easy to drive to all the wonderful walks in the New Forest. Hope to return next year.

  • "Owner was very helpful over the parking, getting us a permit."

    However, Sykes ad for the cottage was misleading. It stated an "allocated " parking slot, which in fact was an on-street restricted times area. Disappointing. Facilities in the cottage good. Stairs extremely steep.

  • "This cottage was lovely for a family holiday to explore Lymington, the New Forest, Beaulieu, and the Isle of Wight."

    For us, parking was easy every time required - outside the front door, which was framed by pretty roses. We got the parking permit arranged once we phoned the cottage owner, who picked up first time and registered our car details online at their end. This cottage was a real 'cottage' size, yet cosy, well- renovated, equipped and furnished with a nice 'sea/blue' interior theme. The stairs were steep, so we found that using the handrail was necessary. We found the mattresses were quite comfortable, and discovered the lounge sofa also proved to be a good sofabed. The area was very quiet at night. So, on our stay, we slept well. One evening, we relaxed and dined in the small sun-trap back garden surrounded by fragrant honeysuckle and tall evergreen hedges. In Lymington, we ate at the King's Head pub-restaurant. Their 'giant' fish & chips main dish was very, very good. A great stay.

  • "Difficulty finding out about parking, I was not replied to when I enquired."

    There was no can opener, which was difficult half way through cooking.

The property

Stones Throw is a pretty terraced cottage in Lymington, with parking at walking distance into this coastal town with its own quay, in the New Forest district of Hampshire.

Stones Throw is a delightful home boasting a snug lounge and an open-plan kitchen/diner with a door leading to the enclosed garden.

The bathroom is downstairs with a bath and shower over, making freshening up after a day out convenient.

Upstairs you will find two bedrooms, one double and the second a bunk room making it a fabulous choice for families looking to explore all the New Forest area has to offer.

The entrance to our lovely cottage is into the welcoming sitting room lounge with an electric, woodburning-effect fire, corner sofa and TV.

Steep steps lead up to the large double bedroom and the second has bunk beds making this perfectly suited for families keen to enjoy all that is available on their doorstep as well as a short drive away.

Stones Throw is ideally situated as bicycles or ponies can be hired to trek the New Forest whilst seeing the wild ponies and donkeys.

Guests can walk into Lymington, a beautiful market town with something for everyone including popular eateries with a wide choice of pubs and restaurants.

The quay is perfect for a quiet stroll but if it is sand you want to relax on there is Avon Beach or Hengistbury Head and the coastal walks in between.

Alternatively, you may enjoy the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu or the historic sites of the 13th-century palace house.

Stones Throw is an all-year-round holiday home where you can’t fail to relax and enjoy yourself whatever the occasion.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
