You’ll be in no doubt about which home is the fairest after a stay in this immaculately renovated house in Lymington. Not only is it an ideal base for exploring both the south coast and the New Forest, it feels like a destination in its own right. A classic redbrick townhouse, the home has been recently renovated so everything – from appliances to carpets – feels fresh and brand new. There are plenty of design touches that set it apart. The neutral colour palate, a glass staircase and plenty of mirrors (including one that cleverly hides away laundry facilities) all bring an airy and spacious feel, while characterful pieces of art make it feel curated rather than sterile. Every comfort has been considered: 60 inch flat-screen TV with Netflix, underfloor heating, motion sensor lighting in the bathrooms, large beds and high-thread count linens. And when you’re refreshed and ready to start exploring you’ll find Lymington High Street at the end of the road (with pubs, shops and eateries galore), the harbour a five minute walk, and the New Forest’s walks, cycles and Go Ape just a short drive away. If you’re looking for a stylish escape on the south coast,... you can’t stay much fairer than this.

Home truths
The entrance is straight off the road and so people walking past can see into the sitting/dining room, however there are blinds to protect privacy
Cars can load or unload for up to an hour but they then have to move to a secure long stay car park that’s five minutes walk away. The host provides long stay parking clocks for guests so they don’t have to pay
Narrow door frames and staircase means it’s not suited for those in wheelchairs or with mobility issues
One of the bedrooms is considerably smaller than the others, so maybe you'll want to draw straws

Local guide
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...
