more about this place...

We love the ‘Shed’, rustic and eccentric, with its four-poster bed across the garden. It’s a peaceful and quiet spot. With the pub next door, you won’t need to cook. You can even book in for breakfast.

The space is all about the bed. It’s an ornate, four-poster affair with not one, but two mattresses. Blue fairy lights hang up for you in the roof space. The wood burner will warm your toes. Giant over-size armchairs are ready to scoop you up for some book reading action. This is your time out zone.

There is an extra bunk beds in the little bedroom. They are built in and very sturdy. There is a shower room dressed in scaffold boards.

Want to sunbathe? Open the bifold doors for a very effective sun-trap or outside at the table and chairs is pretty much wind-free and gets all the afternoon sun.

The kitchen is basic. There is a sink with cold water, use the kettle for hot water, an electric hob, toaster, microwave and a large fridge/freezer. If you don’t want to cook, the East End Arms is next door, or Lymington is 3 miles away with some great foodie places for you.

There is a small but effective wood-burner here and it really heats the shed up. Plus a large oil fired radiator. The shed is hugely insulated and keeps its heat very well. Super cosy and perfect for snuggling in!

Just across the garden is the Cottage. If you are renting just one part of the accommodation here, then there is a high possibility there will be another group of guests here. The gardens are fenced separate with wire fencing but kids can 100% see through it.  Do see pics and the virtual tour for layout.  Whilst we do talk to guests and explain this, we cannot guarantee that your fellow guests will be as perfect as you’d like and you will need to be tolerant of them.

The garden is not set up for wild ball games. There is wooden fencing that really bangs when balls hit it. There are plenty of options for family play but we don’t welcome wild and shouty play. Gypsy van available all year except Nov to March.

FYI – The kids toys and kit come primarily with the cottage not the Pig Shed. Ask us before you stay and we can move a few things across for you.
