aboutSectionText

We are delighted to be the first place in the New Forest that is able to offer accessible self catering holidays, which the whole family can enjoy. Based on the outskirts of Lymington, just 2 miles from the New Forest National Park and the coast, we are an ideal base for exploring the area. Our Self Catering Cottages are purpose built, redecorated annually and are available throughout the year, whether you are after a short break, a weeks holiday, or a fortnight in the New Forest, we try and help. All three holiday cottages - Bench Cottage, Garden Bench and Little Bench benefit from ceiling hoists. Bench cottage has a second hoist in the wet room and a changing table, so are trully accessible to all.

Bench Cottage - well appointed cottage for a comfortable stay

Had a very comfortable stay in this wheelchair accessible cottage. It is rare to find accommodation that is actually set up to accommodate the needs of a wheelchair user. The cottage sleeps 4, but we ended up using the spare room to store all our kit. We found plenty of places to visit in the local vicinity. Lymington is an old historic town, so not everywhere has level access or dropped kerbs. It is worth planning trips out before travelling.

Awesome Disabled Accommodation

We recently stayed at Bench Cottage and wholeheartedly and highly recommend it. The cottage was very clean, comfortable, and spacious for the four of us. It was the ideal space for my disabled mother-in-law, including the rise recliner and disabled bathroom. Parking was convenient and onsite only about 12 feet from the front door. The location was perfect, near several villages and the New Forest. The host prepared the cottage exactly as we requested and were so friendly, generous, and helpful. They provided us with a decorated christmas tree that really brought joy to my disabled mother-in-law. We will certainly return.
