Looking for seaside bliss by the bucket (and spade) load? Salty days & special times together are a shore thing from our VIP family beach house… With panoramic views stretching over The Solent, to the Isle of Wight and beyond, High Tide’s top floor has been designed as an ode to the ocean; with everything tailored to soaking up those ever-changing ocean vistas- it is utterly breath-taking!

From your front door to the shore (in just 3 minutes), this really is wild swimming, paddle-boarding, boat-spotting, ice-cream-eating, clifftop-walking, sandcastle-making heaven… But, before plotting tomorrow’s adventures, we recommend pouring yourself a little something (cue the handy bar) and taking it all in. You’ll all feel a million miles from the everyday hustle & bustle up here, with a super-sized sofa, games nook, and balcony to choose from; all amongst the most beautiful backdrop.

Downstairs, the laidback-luxe vibe continues, where an open-plan kitchen & diner lets you spill out into the garden for alfresco feasts to the sound of the ocean. And the cherry on top … your exclusive Milford on Sea postcode means you can go from foamy waves to frothy coffee (or something colder perhaps) in just a jiffy. The buzzy village provides the perfect post-beach tonic with it’s fab sprinkling of places to eat, drink and be merry!

When you’re full of good food, fresh air & family time, come home to catnap in the TV room/snug, or batten down the hatches in one of the three en-suite bedrooms… now this is the good life!

What makes this place special...

Highlights staying at this house and in the local area...

All the essential details.

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

Inside

We love how our upside-down home embraces its VIP seaside location, and the first floor offers just the place to soak up its panoramic views in style. Overlooking The Solent in style... be prepared for a WOW moment as you step upstairs...

With a floor to ceiling view that goes up into the eaves, everything about this room celebrates the wide-skied wanderlust that surrounds- it's a true love letter to the ocean.

There's plenty of space for the whole family to settle-in; we'd take our morning coffee & sunset sips on the balcony, and succumb to the GINORMOUS sofa for Netflix or charade-a-thons come nightfall! If you have any energy left after a day of swimming, biking, walking and paddling... the nifty games table in the 'nook' up here, takes you from air hockey to American pool in just a jiffy, and there are plenty of board games & books to choose from too!

We should point out that the mini bar/kitchenette up here has two functions... 1: to cleanse the palette (the fridge is plenty big enough for olives & wine) and 2: to provide the most enviable backdrop if you have to join a Zoom meeting!

Downstairs the easy-breezy style continues and we love how the L-shaped kitchen-diner offers yet another great light-filled space to chat & chill together. The bi-folds stretch along the full width of the room, and bring the outside-in to keep the fresh air... and snacks... flowing! The snug is just off from the dining section, which doubles up as a TV room for the little ones, or as an extra bedroom with its fold out sofa bed (if pre-agreed).

Pssst - Each of the three gorgeous bedrooms are en-suite, but the master boasts the biggest shower and garden access. The other two rooms are equally as light & lovely though, with the option to have twin beds or a king in bedroom 2. The bonus of having a family bathroom, large hallway, and utility room, means all is at-hand for a very ship-shape stay beside the seaside!!!

Outside

The walled garden is large & leafy with a magnificent tree taking centre stage! A mix of mature planting and more modern leafy additions make you feel cacooned from the elements, and help all neighbouring parties enjoy privacy.

Little ones will love running around the lawn, whilst all will be hoping to bagsy the egg chair. With the bi-folds open, you'll be spoilt for choice with places to feast, but we'd always opt for alfresco... especially to the soundtrack of the sea!

There's plenty of room to park 2-3 cars in the courtyard here, and although the electric gate will be kept open during your stay, your home is lovely and private at the end of a cul-de-sac.
GardenGarden dining table & chairs / Hanging egg chair / Gas BBQ.
ParkingThe driveway has room for 2-3 cars.

Vehicle charging is possible via the mains electricity in the property. At the time of booking, you will be required to select how many electric vehicles you will be charging during your stay; as a £35 surcharge is applicable for each EV car per booking. Please only use the external plug point and bring your own charging cables.

Home truths

Your VIP seaside & south-facing home means you are at one with the elements... please be wary of doors when the wind picks up! For your safety, please do take extra care on the balcony (especially if allowing younger guests out here, who should be supervised at all times) and do not lean on the glass. Please also note that High Tide does not have a stair gate, and travel stair gates will not work due to the design of the staircase.

Whilst the chair in bedroom 2 doubles up as a single futon, this is just for relaxing and isn't an extra bed. If you have extra guests joining you at some point, there may be the option to use the snug's sofa bed, but this must be agreed with our team before the stay so please drop us an email or call to chat through. Bedroom 2's WiFi can be a little temperamental, so we reckoned heading to the snug to watch a movie!

The handy utility room is just the spot for keeping on top of laundry, but guests are kindly asked to air dry items rather than use the tumble dryer. On the topic of all things clean; the jets in the family bathroom's spa bath don't work, but it's still fine for a soak!

To access the beach you'll need to leave out of the front door and head towards the end of the cul de sac. There is a road to cross, and you'll find your nearest beach access has a fair few steps to wander down to reach the shore (as seen in pics). It is worth mentioning that you may hear some road noise when spending time in High Tide's garden.

Please note that the garages and annexe out here are locked, but if you wish to store any precious kit, we may be able to pre-arrange storage so please just ask.

Accessibility

All of the bedrooms have shower en-suites and are located on the ground floor, but there is a subtle incline to the floor as you enter bedroom 2, so please mind your step.

The main living area is upstairs, but the kitchen & diner is on the ground floor, with garden access.

Location, location, location...

Now this is seaside living at its finest! As well as having VIP vistas, High Tide is in easy reach of all things wild & wonderful... You are only a 3 min stroll away from the shore (there are steps to get down to Hordle Cliffs) where you can while away the day with picnics & paddles.

After a day at the beach head into Milford Village to stock-up or treat yourself... We love The Cave for an aperitif & Britannia Thai for a takeaway. The Coastal Bakery's bread is also well worth the hype if you fancy an early morning sourdough stroll!

Wander, run, or bike into Lymington along the Sea Wall. Its a gorgeous 5 mile stretch and you'll have the most beautiful vantage of birds and boats as you go... just wow.

We have had an amazing week of beautiful sunshine and have really enjoyed the lovely property, garden and BBQ. Thank you very much. We enjoyed morning walks from the house through the woodland in Milford on Sea Nature reserve to the pretty village and loved the tasty treats at The Coastal Bakery. We had brunch at Paddle on the Green and Saltwater, both were so lovely.

Having a morning coffee or sunset sip to the backdrop of The Solent is truly VIP! As well as having possibly the best views in Milford, you can also be in the water within just a few minutes, and Hordle Cliffs is ideal for days filled wild swim and picnic.

This is the absolute perfect location and home for a family trip to the beach! The house itself is a showstopper with those views, but I also love that it has been designed in a way that makes you all feel at home. After a day at the beach, we would definitely be heading back to the games nook and mini bar/kitchen!
