The Old Stables holiday cottage is on the High Street in Lyndhurst village, gateway to the New Forest. The drive runs down hill and away from the High Street behind full height gates, offering you a little seclusion in addition to the convenience of pubs, restaurants, tea rooms and local shops being on your doorstep!
You are in the heart of the New Forest at the Old Stables. Walk in any direction out of Lyndhurst and you're sure to come across scenery and landscapes unchanged for hundreds of years.
Full of character, our conversion gives you all the convenience of a modern building, with all the charm of a Victorian Stable Block in the Forest.
Walking along the driveway from the entrance opposite St Michaels Church, The Old Stables runs on down the hill and away from the High Street. It is built with soft red brick and the roof has been re-tiled using hand made clay peg tiles. The stable setts which formed the area of hard-standing outside the original stable block have been incorporated in the renovation as a pedestrian pathway running along the edge of the building.
The split level lounge area with large open fire and exposed beams has seating, stereo and tv for guests. Measuring a huge 38ft x 15.5ft this room can take 28 guests. Up the four full-width steps to the top end there is access to the dining room and kitchen. The fireplace is at this end and is especially in winter months.
The bottom end of the lounge offers access to the lower end bath and shower rooms and bedrooms.
In the middle of the lounge is the original stable door, now refurbished, offering access outside. There are six sofas in total in the lounge, along with other seating (indluding chairs and a church pew!) to accommodate guests.
The Lounge area has windows and skylights to allow light in. The windows around the upper level door and the door itself are also original and refurbished. Reclaimed floorboards have been used for the entire room.
