Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Set on the very edge of a small lake close to the River Avon, Riverside Chronicles is surrounded by the most stunning scenery (expect lots of woodlands, trees, and water). Rural, secluded, and in touch with nature, it’s the kind of place that inspires you to relax and slow down. We love how the hosts have thought of everything to make the most of the surroundings – from the cute dining spot on the deck that’s perfect for enjoying a drink and the magnificent sunsets to the tranquil glamping pod, and the cosy wood-burning stove that also offers beautiful views.

About The New Forest
Hot off the press – the New Forest isn’t actually new. Founded in 1079 by William the Conqueror as his personal hunting ground, the New Forest became a national park in 2005. And today, this swathe of green landscape where deer and wild ponies graze freely is one of the most idyllic escapes in the UK. There are plenty of cute-as-a-button villages dotted throughout the region – our favourites include...
