Twin Cottage is as a very special little cottage for adults and children alike. Little ones will head straight for the conservatory play room, whilst adults will adore the romantic fireplace and log burner, especially on crisp winter days and evenings, or indulgent slipper bath - also a big hit with toddlers!


The New Forest setting will have little visitors playing spot the pony, cow, or deer from the garden gate in no time but despite its rural location, Twin Cottage is less than 20 minutes drive from the coast and a 10-minute stroll from the cosy pubs, galleries, tea rooms and useful shops of Burley. The beautiful setting of the cottage is matched by an equally attractive interior. An elegant colour scheme, solid oak and slate flooring, luxurious antique double bed and aforementioned cosy fireplaces, slipper bath and special toddler zone, just off the well-equipped kitchen, make it the perfect blend of luxury with family practicality.


The Cottage has two bedrooms both with room for a cot. One is a twin/queen (zip'n'link) and the second has a French antique-style double bed. The bathroom has both a slipper bath and a separate shower. Downstairs, the lounge has a lovely open coal fire (coal and guard provided), Flatscreen TV, DVD and Freeview. The dining room has another pretty fireplace, but with a log burner (logs provided). The well-equipped kitchen has all the standard equipment plus washer/dryer, dishwasher, breadmaker and Nespresso coffee maker, plus an honesty bar/cupboard. Adjacent to the kitchen is a conservatory with lovely views of the large enclosed garden, along with a filled toy chest, play kitchen and toddler's table and chairs. Off the dining room is a small home-office room with free wireless broadband, laptop and printer, plus a selection of DVDs for kids and grown ups, craft box, play doh and colouring supplies - perfect for rainy day distraction!

The cottage sleeps four (plus a cot). It can be rented per week or for weekend and mid-week short breaks, year round with the exception of bank holidays and half terms, which are weekly lets only. Prices are from £595 - £1,575 depending on the time of stay.


Stop Press! Twin Cottage is only 10mins drive from the new Peppa Pig World at Paultons Park!

Reviews Show Location Map As Amanda and little Amber live nearby, they can be called on for personal recommendations on places to visit but BFB's top suggestions include: wildlife, elf and fairy spotting, as well as picnics in the forest; Nearby Longdown Farm for its friendly farmyard animals, new indoor ball pool and BIRO wooden play equipment zone; Paultons Park for its big range of toddler rides and NEW! Peppa Pig World (10mins drive). Cycle hire with trailer buggies is available in Burley. Of the many seaside towns within a 20 mile radius of the cottage, Highcliffe is recommended for its picturesque castle leading to a scenic sandy beach; Hythe for the train ride along its Victorian pier; and yachting haven Lymington for its great selection of restaurants, boutiques and bistros.


For a special night out, book a babysitter and don't miss a chance to try the highly acclaimed new bistro at The Pig in nearby Brockenhurst (10 mins drive).

Fantastic accommodation, every detail thought of to cater for a younger family, from crayons to kids DVD's, bath toys and books. And a luxurious touch for the grown ups too. Great location for local attractions as well as easy forest walks to look for ponies. Could not recommend highly enough.

Small but perfectly formed - a fantastically well kitted out property in a great location. We had a brilliant holiday enjoying much of what the New Forest can offer and our three kids (4, 3 and 18 months) would have happily spent every minute playing with the vast array of toys, in the huge garden and watching the cows and ponies wander past the front gate. I absolutely recommend it.

"A wonderful "Boutique Bolthole" to relax away from the city and rest up before the birth of our first child! Will return as a family and would love to take advantage of summer activities around Burley."

"A delightful country cottage packed with original features and 5 star amenities. Facilities for my son(18mths) could only have been arranged by a mum herself and what a wonderful reception - a warm cosy home, with the log fire burning, relaxing music playing and the smell of fresh bread! A truly lovely cottage in a superb setting to be enjoyed by families or couples on romantic weekends away. We will definately return!

"We loved it all. Good attention to detail. Practicality rules at Twin Cottage. A wonderful place to relax, play and enjoy. Perfect for young families as the selection of toys, books, dvds and outdoor activities make it extra special for your younger guests & stress free for the parents. Looking forward to coming back soon and have already recommended to friends."

We had a fantastic stay at this wonderful cottage in the New Forest. We can thoroughly recommend this to all - whether a romantic break for 2, family holiday or a break with friends - it's perfect. The personal touches really make this a place to remember & we can't wait to come back.

“We have just spent a wonderful few days at Twin Cottage in the New Forest. The cottage is so comfortable with every family need catered for, and is in an amazing location right in the heart of the forest. We are already planning to go back next year. Great website - it really helped us to find somewhere that suits!”

Wonderful accommodation and very well equipped. Would have preferred a slightly later departure time as we had to get ourselves and baby out by 10.00am which was a bit of a challenge.

I stayed at Twin Cottage, Burley, New Forest. The playroom and childrens facilities were amazing... the house was cosy and bread was baking as we walked in the door! It realy felt like we'd borrowed a very generous friend's house for the weekend! The local pub was child friendly and served good food for a 15 minute walk! It really was a great weekend, the fires/the breadmaker/the make believe kitchen and outdoor toys made for a brilliant stay.

Fantastic place to stay, interior decoration is just so! Avon Beach (Mudeford) great for young children as you can literally park 3 feet from the beach. Moors Valley Park great for bike rides with children in buggies. Lots of little touches, to many to mention, make this place better than any 5 star hotel. Will be back as soon as possible!! P.S. More toys than we have at home!
