Riverside Lodge on Stilts

Imagine a tranquil escape in the heart of the New Forest National Park where you stay in a charming lodge raised above the water, with the garden leading directly to the banks of the Beaulieu River. Every window captures views of the river, trees and open sky, making this a lovely retreat for couples, honeymooners or anyone seeking peace and space.

Inside, the open plan living area is bright and airy, with large floor to ceiling windows and sliding doors that open onto a generous deck. The lounge features a cosy flame effect fire and the dining area is perfectly placed to enjoy the ever changing river scenery.

The kitchen is well equipped for relaxed cooking, whether you want a quick breakfast at the breakfast bar or a quiet evening meal after exploring. Binoculars are provided for spotting birds and wildlife along the riverbank. The king size bedroom includes a pocket sprung mattress, soft dressing gowns and slippers to make your stay feel even more comfortable.

A modern bathroom with bath and shower over, plus a separate WC, add to the ease. Downstairs you will find a utility room with washer and dryer, along with secure bike storage for days spent cycling through woodland trails or visiting the coast.

Outside, the riverside deck is a highlight. Enjoy breakfast in the morning sun, watch the tide drift past in the afternoon or settle into the evening with the peaceful sounds of nature. Deer and birdlife frequently pass through the grounds, adding to the sense of escape.

With woodland walks, coastal paths and the historic village of Beaulieu all close by, you can explore as much or as little as you like. This is a place to slow your pace, reconnect with nature and enjoy the simple pleasure of watching the river glide by.
