What we love...
Full of rustic charm and original character despite recent renovation, with quirky features still intact throughout.
Brilliantly placed between the woodland and the coast, with the sea just a ten-minute drive away.
Just down the road, Ferndene Farm Shop is a proper local gem for stocking up on meat, produce and treats.
Tynings is a Victorian red brick cottage, the kind you’ll spot in villages right across the forest. It sits between ancient woodland and coast, with the sea around ten minutes’ drive away.
The cottage has been in the same family for decades and although it has recently been updated, it hasn’t lost an ounce of its rustic charm. Original features remain throughout, with a lovely bright and relaxed feeling to the place.
Next door, two grand old oak trees stand over the Bashley cricket pitch. Settle into the garden on a summer evening, and you’ll hear the unmistakable sound of leather on willow drifting over from the boundary, along with the odd triumphant shout of “Out!”
Tynings Style
Tynings is proper cottage charm through and through. It’s a house with real history and real character, comfortable and unpretentious, with plenty of quirks that only come from decades of family life and forest living.
Period features have been carefully preserved throughout the recent renovation, from the decorative fireplaces in every room to the wonderfully eccentric outdoor loo tucked into the boot room. A working wood burner in the sitting room brings proper cosiness on colder days, while the large garden (which remains fairly wild) gives you room to breathe, play and watch the world go by. On occasion you may be able to spot a deer running past the back door of the cottage.
It’s a house that wears its age well. Rustic, relaxed and unmistakably New Forest.
