What we love...

Ten minutes on foot and you are in the heart of one of the south's most loved towns of Lymington with boutiques, the Saturday market and the boat-bobbing Quay all waiting to be explored.

A football goal for the little ones, a snug with pocket doors for anyone needing peace, and a master suite with a bathtub of dreams for whoever gets there first. There's something for everyone!

The sea runs through this house. Coastal colours, ocean-inspired details and that unmistakable feeling of being somewhere just a little bit nautical, Fair Winds has a personality all of its own.

We love the connection to the great outdoors at Fair Winds, and how the HUGE sliding doors let you all drift out from the kitchen/diner and on to the patio with ease… from BBQ to beer in a jiffy! Echoing its coastal location, there are odes to the ocean throughout (did we mention your hosts include a round-the-world racer)- and splashes of colour add a touch of fun and frivolity to the neutral backdrop.

A stay here will certainly put you on course for a fantastic New Forest jolly… Perfectly positioned to savour life as a Lymington local, you won’t have to cast your net out far to explore the bustling town & boat-bobbing Quay! Amongst the Georgian-lined buildings on the High Street (only a 10 minute wander away), you’ll find an array of independent cafés, pubs, restaurants & boutiques to dip in and out of; and do fill your basket at the Saturday market as you never know what you may find. Follow the cobbles a little further to discover an ice-cream eating, sunseeker-spotting and paddleboarding haven at the Quay.

For adventures a little further afield, wander the Sea Wall to Milford on Sea, or hop on the train for an off-road bike ride through Brockenhurst- the world is your oyster!

After a day at play, head back home and relaaaaax… There’s plenty of space outside for little ones to burn off excess energy… cue the football goal and basketball hoop… whilst anyone needing to recoup can just shut the pocket doors and cosy into the snug. When you are ready for bed, you’ll have three ship-shape rooms to choose from (shotgun the master suite with its dressing area + bathtub of dreams).

Town. Coast. Countryside… Fair Winds sails close to it all!

All the essential details.

Here's your full run down of this place, inside and out...

Inside

Drenched in natural light, with fantastic sliding doors that bring the outside-in, we love how the open-plan kitchen-diner offers plenty of space to gather together...

Anyone would gladly take the helm in Fair Wind's sleek kitchen, as the island forms the perfect place to chat, chill, and sip something delicious (whilst overlooking the children playing outside). Whether eating at the dining table inside, or taking your feast into the garden, you’ll find the laidback flow here encourages you all to go with the flow.

For any adventurers seeking solace or downtime, cosy snug is just the ticket. With its nifty pocket doors, you can switch on (TV at-the-ready) or switch off (grab a book) as you please.

When it’s time to turn in, everyone can settle down for a cosy night’s sleep (and the built-in dog bed is a genius touch for four-legged family members!). Upstairs, there’s plenty of space for the whole crew to hunker down. The twin room is just right for younger guests, with a cosy, welcoming feel, while next door the king bedroom offers a peaceful, neutral space that’s perfect for relaxing after a busy day of adventures.

Wherever you lay your head, the family bathroom, with its large shower, is in easy reach for all parties to refresh.

Saving the best for last... the master, with its adjoining dressing area and super-swish bathroom, make this more of a 'suite' experience! We love how the dark blue hues encourage you to cosy in, and how the superking bed means there's plenty of room for little ones to join in morning snuggles!

Outside

Just slide the doors back and drift into alfresco living…

From morning coffees, to BBQ suppers, the patio is pure perfection! There are neighbouring houses, but we love how the mature hedging and generous planting at Fair Winds makes you feel cocooned and completely private.

Whilst the little ones burn off any remaining energy on the football goal and basketball hoop, we recommend cranking up the BBQ and soaking up the evening sun. With a footy goal poised at-the-ready, there's also a basketball hoop to bring a bit of competition to the table!

Location, location, location...

What a spot to anchor up! Fair Winds is a 10 minute wander from the top of Lymington town, and another 10 minute wander to the boat-bobbing & Quay at the bottom... with lots of spots to eat, drink and be merry in-between! We love the Quay for a spot of people watching too, and little ones will delight with the amount of ice cream on offer.

You'll find Lymington train station at the bottom of the High St, where you can hop off at Brockenhurst (in around 10 minutes), or change to head into Bournemouth or Southampton (Waterloo is only a couple of hours from here too). You can also take the train in the other direction to Lymington Pier, to catch the Isle of Wight Ferry, or head to New Forest Adventure Golf.

Lymington Sea Water Baths is a must for families in the summer (be sure to book), and with its location near the Sea Wall, you can walk along from here all the way to Keyhaven.

After a day of explorations, we'd recommend a pub pit stop at The Townhouse for a quick refuel, but If you are looking for a special meal then try The Elderflower (on the cobbles leading to the Quay) - where their locally sourced tasting menus will be sure to impress!
