Description
This delightful, Grade II listed holiday cottage lies in the Avon Valley on the road running through the charming village of Winkton. The end one of a row, it has been furnished and equipped to a high standard, and offers spacious accommodation and has an enclosed part-walled garden. A second living room with TV and video makes this ideal for families.
The Avon Valley Path lies a few hundred yards from the cottage. There are many scenic walks to be enjoyed along the Avon Valley, where a wide variety of bird life can be observed within a natural habitat. The village itself is in a designated Area of Special Scientific Interest primarily for the river and the abundance of bird life. Nearby lies picturesque Christchurch (approximately 2 miles), a pretty priory town with its own quay and harbour providing local boat trips. A short drive away is the lively beach resort of Bournemouth with its many sandy beaches, together with many welcoming bars, shops and seaside attractions. Local beaches approximately 3 miles.
The cottage is situated on the edge of the New Forest where wild ponies roam freely among miles of heath land and there are many places of interest to visit within the area, such as the village of Burley, Exbury Gardens and Beaulieu Motor Museum. Regular ferries to the Isle of Wight depart from the famous royal yachting town of Lymington, and slightly further afield is Southampton, a port steeped in seafaring history, with good shopping facilities, and a contemporary art gallery. The historic cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are within easy reach. Three good local pubs all serving food are within walking distance (nearest 100 yards). Shop 1 mile. Beamed living room with open fire and wooden floor. Dining room leading to conservatory with terracotta floor. Fitted kitchen with butler sink. Family room with TV. Separate toilet.

With a wide and varied selection of cottages and holiday lets in Dorset Go2 offers you the ideal way to make the most of your break in this beautiful and largely unspoilt county, where there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Dorset’s Jurassic Coast is a World Heritage Site, with dramatic coves and stunning cliffs, topped by the South West Coast Path, which offers some wonderful views. Here you’ll find characterful seaside towns like Swanage and Lyme Regis as well as the wide sweep of Weymouth Beach. If you’re looking for somewhere more lively, then Bournemouth won’t disappoint. This is one of Britain’s most popular resorts and has attractions and entertainments in abundance. Nearby Poole is quieter, but still has much to offer. Try and make the trip to Brownsea Island, a fabulous nature reserve here. Inland on your holiday in Dorset you can enjoy the rolling hills that are so characteristic of the county and explore what has become known as “Thomas Hardy Country”.
The county town of Dorchester, with its High Street lined with 17th and 18th Century houses, is little changed from Hardy’s day, while the pretty town of Shaftesbury has been used as a location in countless films set in Olde England.
