  Stayed in November for my 70th birthday.

  There were 6 adults, a 20 month old baby and small dog; and we all had plenty of room. Little Picket met all our expectations in most areas and exceeded them in others. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise and very thoughtful. Access was easy using the codes provided. The bedrooms are all to a high standard and comfortable although the plumbing can be a little "quirky". The cot and highchair were supplied as promised along with a good quality stairgate. We didn't use the open fires although logs were provided and the central heating kept the house warm throughout our stay. The games room was brilliant, with lots to do and we used the tennis court everyday along with the basketball hoop. We were very grateful to see that the leaves were cleared from the tennis court regularly, a small point but a very thoughtful consideration. We had intended to do more walks but spent a lot more time on the tennis court instead! The kitchen was well equipped although we didn't use the Aga. It would have been helpful to have an instruction booklet for the induction oven but we did work it out eventually. Access was easy and Nicholas was on hand and very prompt in answering any queries we had. Nicholas is an excellent host. There is a lovely walk behind the cottage and we were not far from other walks; and Ringwood is only a short drive away. The only minor improvements (and they are minor) would be a bit more information in the accommodation booklet regarding the oven and where to dispose of the rubbish; and an OS map (although there were several booklets on recommended walks). A full set of matching wine glasses would be a good addition. The downstairs toilet seat needs repair. We would consider staying here again; it is perfect for a multi-generational family (and dog).

  We had an excellent time at Brook Farm.

  Sarah met us at the property and went through the house keeping, very friendly host who was on hand for any queries. 8 of us stayed comfortably and explored the local area on a daily basis. All facilities were of a high standard with the double banisters and walk in shower a great addition for the less able members of the group. The family room and double room have a joining door which worked well for us and gave the rest of the group a bit of space. Despite the warm weather the wood burning stove was put to use and soon heats the whole place up! The property is quirky and Sarah has plans for its development. Lots of things locally to explore too so was ideal for the dogs and children, recommend visiting Moors Valley if you stay. Just disappointed we never got to see the local deer!

  We stayed at Little Timbers from 20th sept to 27th 2024 and really enjoyed our break in the New Forest .

  On arriving we received a very warm welcome from Geoff the owner . The cottage provided a comfortable stay with all the equipment we required . Set in a lovely enclosed well maintained garden which our collie dog loved to have a wonder in . Very clean and well presented . Excellent to have parking space on Geoffs driveway and close to a great pub and close to shops in Ringwood Little Timbers was a great base to travel to & explore all areas of the New Forest Geoff was a great host and Littjle Timbers was excellent accommodation . Definately well worth a stay and we will make a return visit Keith & Jen Boulton

  Little Picket has everything a larger party would need for a fantastic break .

  Our family all said it was a superb place to holiday . With loads of space to escape if needed, great hot tub and pool, the tennis courts , games room and football nets all well used . The bedrooms are really comfy with top quality linen and towels with modern bathrooms . The icing on the cake is the location right on the new forest and no more than 20 mins from the coast and other major attractions .Nicholas the owner, made us most welcome from the welcome pack on arrival and fresh flowers ,always being on hand if needed . If you are looking for a quality place to stay then you have found it here .

  Overall, very good indeed.

  Plenty to keep everyone occupied outside when the weather was fine, tennis, golf etc and especially the hot tub which we could hardly keep the grandkids out of. Plenty to do indoors when it rained, pool, crafts, darts etc. As for the Forest, there's a couple of decent walks up on the heath behind the house and one to the Elm Tree pub. For a more varied menu try the Fish Inn on the banks of the Avon in Ringwood. For some really good walks we went to the High Corner Inn in Linwood about 20 mins drive and down a gravel track but well worth the effort.
