“Cosy house in a busy village. Sway is a lovely village with great amenities. The house was small and cosy, perfect for two people. Good kitchen facilities, we cooked a delicious Sunday roast. The farm has very cute donkeys and goats, though due to current circumstances we had to keep our distance, but still enjoyed watching them. It was so quiet at night time, which is great, and on clear nights so many stars! Lynn and Mark we're always quick to respond if we had any questions and they'd left plenty of local information in the house to read”

“A beautiful shepherds hut set in a beautiful location. We had one rainy night and one warm sunny night, and the hut was perfect for both! We loved cooking a bbq on the fire pit and waking up to such a beautiful outlook. The location is perfect for exploring the New Forest. 2 nights was not enough! Lynn and Mark were great hosts.”

“A lovely, clean converted barn on a farm. We could hear goats in the day and see stars at night. We stayed in January and used the place as a base to go walking on the common near Burley and on the coast near Lepe. A top find was a local butchers in Sway which sold fantastic pies. Recommended.”

Here’s what Emma wrote

“We stayed at Lynn's cottage for 3 nights (30 Dec 2019 > 2 Jan 2020). It was perfect, much better than we had expected. The pictures do not do it justice! The kitchen had far more than we thought it would. Comfortable seating in the living area. The place was very clean and the beds extremely comfortable. We were two couples staying and it is very spacious, not on top of each other at all. Both days we chose to drive out to visit places to walk, although to enter the forest you wouldn't have to drive. We visited the Hare & Hounds pub twice for dinner, which was very nice and would thoroughly recommend. We also went to the Silver Hind just up the road from the cottage for drinks and it was ok, nothing special but if you're just in need for a drink or two its fine. Both pubs very friendly. I would 100% recommend this place to stay.”

“Clean, tidy, close to the new forest, good local walks, close to Lyndhurst and Brockenhurst. Great place to enjoy walks, pub food and cafes. Peggy May’s cafe in Lyndhurst is a must, if you like fresh scones and cream and cakes!”

Here’s what Ian wrote

“The property is one of two in a converted barn on a farm at the edge of the New Forest. It is accessed by a short flight of wooden steps leading to a veranda, but inside is all on one level. Everything was very clean and chairs and beds were comfortable. There is no garden but there are tables and chairs on the veranda and in the back yard. There is an adjacent campsite for a small number of caravans, but it was closed at the time of our visit. There was plenty of room for parking opposite the properties. The site is remote enough for there to be no traffic noise (just an infrequent train). The nearest pub serving food is a few minutes walk away (Hare and Hounds) and the food and service are good. Likewise the forest heathland is a short walk away.”

Here’s what Anthony wrote

“This accommodation is simple but beautiful. Every convenience is seen to, from great heating to a comfortable kitchen and relaxing sitting room. We particularly enjoyed the quality of the beds in this accommodation. My wife seldom sleeps well the first night on a new bed but this time she slept like a rock. This accommodation has everything that is needed to thoroughly enjoy your stay in the new forest. It is close enough to the town of Sway to make it convenient but also it is surrounded by farm and forest, ensuring that you are immersed in the beauty of the new forest. There are many enjoyable walks that can be done from this accommodation into the new forest. The accommodation is quiet private and has a private courtyard to sit and enjoy the mornings with coffee.”

“The cottage was lovely, in fact it was even nicer than it appears in the photos! The cottage was clean and there is lots of space. We were staying with our 20 month old and found the cottage worked brilliantly for our needs. The second room had space for a travel cot and has two singles, so it would work well for larger families too. There isn't a bath tub but we managed to convince our toddler to try out the shower! Lynn was very quick to respond to any queries and she does lovely morning sessions with her animals (goats, horses and donkeys) which went down very well with our little one.”

“Lynn’s place is perfectly located to explore the beautiful New Forest and the surrounding villages - without the need for a car! The Shepherds Hut is idyllic, private and cosy.

We want to come back!”
