What we love...

Chic, modern interiors with an elegant, breezy design and thoughtful touches.

A central Lymington location, ideal for exploring the high street, quay and nearby coast.

Ideal for larger family getaways and reunions with friends.

Tucked just behind Lymington’s bustling and boutique-filled High Street, Nutmeg House awaits for town, coast & country adventures!

Nutmeg House Style

Classically chic, with a dash of contemporary cool, the sleek palette throughout is paired with playful pieces (spot your favourite album cover), making Nutmeg House sophisticated and welcoming in equal measures.

Ideal for family get-togethers and reunions, there are four bedrooms to choose from. Whilst little ones will love the fab kids’ bunk room for three, the star of the show has to be the bijou bedroom ‘wing’, with its en-suite and Carrie-esque closet!

Once you’ve taken stock, pour a coffee and plot your day from the courtyard garden, before heading out on foot to soak up the Lymington good life.

Explore the Area

With an array of cafés, shops, bars, and restaurants just a stone’s throw away, and the quaint boat-bobbing quay, this is a prime spot. Wend your way down the High Street as you hunt for treasure at the Saturday market, before continuing along the cobbles until land meets sea.

Dangle your legs, throw in a crabbing line, do a spot of yacht-spotting, or wander further along The Sea Wall for a breath of fresh sea air.

For trips further afield, you can hop on board the ferry for a day trip to the Isle of Wight, or catch the train to Brockenhurst for countryside pursuits – great escapes surround! Wherever your day takes you, Nutmeg House is perfect for kicking back in style with your favourite people.

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

Although Nutmeg House is a only a 30 second walk from the bustling High Street, calm, tranquillity & quiet await... it's perfect for sitting back & sipping something lovely.

Starting in the living area... think pops of colour, textured soft furnishings, eclectic art & chic finishing touches. After feasting at the dining table, spread out on the uber-welcoming sofas to spend some quality time together. Filled by the adjoining courtyard's natural light by-day, this cosy room transforms into an ultra-snug cocoon by-night.

With a generous hallway (find extra storage here), go past the downstairs cloakroom & fab bunk-room (Bedroom 1), to discover the kitchen. With enough room to coffee, chat or cook as you please, the round table (for 4) makes for a very sociable affair. The cupboards are full of plenty to cater with, and the tableware is all a smart uniform white.

Leading off from the kitchen (just 7 steps up), you'll find Bedroom 2. It's home to a super king bed, TV, and sparkly en-suite bathroom... and meet our fave... the mini, Carrie-esque closet! Great for those who are first to rise (or perhaps last to bed!) You may want to call shotgun right now?

Upstairs, you'll find the spacious, family bathroom & two more bedrooms. Whilst Bedroom 3 has the added bonus of a dressing area. Both sanctuaries come equip with TV's, super king beds, plenty of natural light, and unique bits to swoon over.

With its prime position, and added little extras, this central & stylish bolthole has fast become one of our favourite Lymington homes!

Outside

Perfectly suited for both morning coffee, and evening sips; you'll find the private patio area through french doors just off from the living room.

On sunny mornings, we recommend that you follow the freshly-baked bread smells to Jennings (a local baker whose Belgian buns are famous in these parts!) to bring back an alfresco brekkie that is sure to win brownie points- or, head a minute up the road to The Solent Cellar & stock-up on some delish drinks to sample as the sun sets.

Nutmeg house is located just a row back from the top of Lymington High Street, and you're perfectly placed to eat out, and get exploring from here (50 or so steps to the nearest shop)

Start at the top of the hIgh street and work your way down . Walking from the cottage down to the Quay will take you along most of the High Street shops. Or go toward the sea wall toward the Yacht Haven bar and cafe, via Woodside park and the pretty back lanes for a more dog-friendly walking trip.

We absolutely loved it at Nutmeg House and already can't wait to stay again! The house is much bigger than we expected. Great space for 6 adults and 2 toddlers to hang out, dine in multiple areas (inside and outside). The location is super convenient to pop into Lymington or drive to lots of nice activities. Comfy big beds, all the amenities we needed plus extra goodies on arrival! Thanks again and we look forward to our next trip.

Rebecca July 2026

We really enjoyed our time here. The property is better than the photos show! Great location to the town and sea wall. Highly recommend.

Alexandra May 2026

A beautiful house - perfect in every way. Staying here was an absolute delight and in the perfect location. Thank you for a wonderful stay. Our favourite bits were the Saturday market, walking to Brockenhurst and walking to the Marina and along the sea wall.

Cardy family May 2026

5 stars. The house is absolutely outstanding. Beautifully furnished with thoughtful luxury touches. It was an absolute privilege to spend the weekend there. We had a wonderful stay.

Tina May 2026

A wonderful 4 night break with family. Our stay at Nutmeg House was very successful. The house is in a perfect position for access to town and harbour. We all felt it was a ‘home from home’ for comfort. The kitchen had excellent appliances and plenty of equipment for cooking and baking. The house was tastefully decorated throughout and a small pretty enclosed garden. We were able to get parked on the street outside so no problems as we had 3 cars. The drive was tight but fine for the smallest car. All in all we had a fabulous time visiting Lymington and the beautiful surrounding area. Thank you to your ‘Team’

Sue April 2026

Nutmeg House was a fabulous choice for our family get together. Plenty of space for old and young to relax, eat and sleep. Lovely comfy beds with the youngest member of the party enjoying the bunk beds next to the living room which was perfect both during the day and evening. Location is great with the High St and Quay a short walk away plus the New Forest on your doorstep. Recommend eating at The Lighthouse on the seafront at Milford on Sea an easy drive away or an easy 2 hour walk on the coast path.

Jan April 2026

5 stars. Would absolutely go again and refer friends and family. What a beautiful and well looked after home. We had a lovely stay and found the house so homely. 10/10.

Joanne April 2026

Ideal home away from home for a family break. We, (parents with our 5 year old, nearly 2 year old + grandma and grandpa) really enjoyed our 4 night holiday at Nutmeg House. It was very comfortable, tastefully decorated and well equipped for simple family cooking. We appreciated the coffee machine and the selection of toys/games and interesting books even though we were out most of the time. Ideal having Waitrose and M&S on the doorstep too and just a great, quiet location to easily get into the New Forest and explore lovely Lymington. Thank you!

Emma April 2026

Perfect stay for a short New Forest trip down memory lane. What a gorgeous little house, very cleverly and beautifully designed. We especially loved the artwork. Great location - we were able to walk to dinner both evenings [Elderflower and Haven], and despite struggling with parking when we arrived [Friday afternoon], were able to park both cars right outside for the rest of the weekend. Bathrooms were super clean and well appointed - my fault, but I should have checked for a walk in shower [my mother struggles with climbing into baths], so if/when updating, might be an idea. Despite hardly using the kitchen, we did appreciate the good coffee machine, thank you. Access and leaving were clear and easy. Thank you for sharing your lovely home with us

Rowena March 2026

Spacious bedrooms, excellent kitchen, lovely lounge and dining area and very convenient for Lymington town centre but within a short drive to good walks in the New Forest. 8 (4 adults, 4 kids) guests fitted in comfortably.

David February 2026

We had a lovely time staying for a few days at Nutmeg House. It was clean and beautifully laid out. We enjoyed being near the High Street and doing some last minute Christmas shopping. We really appreciated the small details to make this home even more lovely to stay in: board games, books for all ages and pretty much anything you could want in the TV. Being able to control the heating with ease was also nice while it was colder. Diffusers in each bathroom, from a local company, was also a nice touch.

Jenny Wilson December 2025

Absolutely stunning property in a fantastic location - perfect for exploring the New Forest and coastal towns etc. Spotlessly clean, beautifully decorated to a really high standard and equipped with everything we needed and more. The parking space is only really suitable for small cars but we had no problem using the street and car park options which are all very close to the property.

Catherine Hughes October 2025

We had a lovely stay at nutmeg house. It was a really comfortable house with all mod cons and had a lovely homely feeling about it. The beds were very comfortable and the kitchen was very well equipped. Positioned right in the centre of Lymington and with in easy reach to all the lovely towns in the New Forest.

Julia Gaff October 2025

Beautiful house. Spacious and everything you could possibly need. A real home from home. We know the area very well and the location was great for Lymington and the coast. Parking was fine, we worked it out between us using the car parks close by.

Sutheran Family August 2025

Rita Oct 2022

Lovely house with lots of space particularly the bedrooms . Car parking is a struggle unless a small car but you do get a car parking clock for a nearby car park . Very nice place to stay in the heart of Lymington.

Milan August 2022

Great location, clean and comfortable.

The house and location is absolutely fabulous! Really well equipped, nice layout, clean, and beautifully decorated- inspiring! Suits both families and couples travelling together. We were a familiy of four and two grandparents. Super pro host! the new forest is amazing!

Ingvill July 2022

Great location easy walking distance to the town / harbour / restaurants - yet so quiet. Beautiful property so well equipped and spotlessly clean. The court yard garden was perfect for early morning breakfast or evening drinks. Perfect location for a mixed age group like ours Thank you

Nikki July 2022

A real gem. Beautiful stylish cottage in an excellent location for Lymington and New Forest area. The property was spotlessly clean with all amenities plus extras to ensure a perfect stay. Our party was 4 adults of two generations plus 2 young children. We all loved it and want to revisit x

Wendy June 2022

Nutmeg is a really lovely property tastefully and thoughtfully decorated and furnished to a really high standard. It even has stair gates so you don't have to worry about your dog going upstairs. 2 minutes walk from the High Street but you wouldn't know it as it is so quiet. Located in Lymington with the New Forest and coast on its doorstep. Saturday market was. great especially for the food stalls. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Nutmeg to anyone looking for a an enjoyable getaway week-end

Naheed June 2022

This is a truly fabulous house in a perfect location. The high street is just a few minutes walk which includes a beautiful marina. We visited the Isle Of Wight from the ferry port which is just 5 minutes away and Paultons Park is also just 25 minutes away. All 4 bedrooms are stunning, the kitchen is very well equipped. The house has everything you will need! x

Danielle May 2022

Such a beautiful home in a brilliant location! We had a wonderful family weekend away and will definitely be back!

Victoria April 2022

Nutmeg house is absolutely beautiful. It is well equipped with everything we could have ever needed or wanted. We were travelling with 6 adults, 2 young children and a dog and there was plenty of room for us all. There were thoughtful personal touches left for us too which were really appreciated. It was spotlessly clean. The location is ideal, a very short walk to the high street with plenty of shops and pubs. Also a great location for exploring near by beauty spots. Overall a wonderful stay. I could not recommend highly enough and we will certainly be coming back!

Charlotte April 2022

Comfortable,roomy,modern,well decorated. Felt like a home from home. Felt comfortable from the minute we arrived on Friday until we left Monday morning. There's loads to see, Lymington is a pretty little town with loads going on, a Saturday Market, loads of little places to have a coffee, a beer whatever you like. We went to a fantastic fish restaurant in Milford on Sea which is 10 minutes away, unforgettable. Our family won't forget it and I cannot recommend it highly enough.If I could give it 6 stars I would!!!

Julie November 2021

We were 4 moms with 5 kids and we really enjoyed the stay for 3 nights during half term. The house is amazing - lush, cozy, comfortable, clean and inviting! Kitchen is a wow. Anne Louise helped us with local things to do and we ended up on the Isle of Wight for a day. Wow. Highly recommended!!

Olesja

We spent 3 nights in the house, which was a lovely break with the kids. The location is great if like us you want to be able to pop to the shop for supplies, grab a takeaway or walking distance to pubs and restaurants. It’s an easy walk down to the harbour and a great base to explore the new Forest during the day via car or bike. The house was spotless, well decorated and really comfortable. The host had left a few treats for us and the kids which was a nice touch too! Communication was great and instructions for check-in easy to follow. Worth noting if you have a large 4x4 car or similar the driveway is tight but there’s parking nearby and a parking clock is available so no need to pay & display. A great stay and we hope to be back one day!
