Perfect family, friends, New Forest cottage near beach. newforestcottages.org

Christchurch
7.0 out of 10, Good, (9)
"6 of us stayed here for 1 night and really enjoyed it. There was plenty of space to eat and relax. There's two bathrooms but only the one downstairs has a shower which wasn't ideal. However, the fact it was so close to the New Forest and the beach at Highcliffe made up for this. Make sure you bring your own towels and toilet paper as only 1.5 rolls were provided. Overall a good stay and would come back"
