I hope you enjoy the area as much as I do.The cottage is fully kitted out to the highest standard with one double bedroom (king-sized bed and en suite with bath for a soak after a long day on the water with the stand-up paddleboard that is available for your use in the garden shed) and one double bunk room with adult-sized bunks and Simba mattresses and duvets. There is a second bathroom with quality shower on the ground floor.

You have sunrise from the double bedroom window and the vine-covered courtyard has sun from breakfast until late afternoon, with a firepit in the courtyard for marshmallow-roasting and sundowners.

The cottage itself has fast connectivity WiFi, Samsung TV and the kitchen is fully fitted out with red and white wine glasses, Le Creuset pans, knives that are actually sharp, all manner of baking and cooking equipment and a high-quality milk frother and Bialetti so you can enjoy freshly ground coffee from one of Lymington’s finest cafes – Coffee & Drift – on the Quay. They also serve excellent breakfast and paninis and in the summer months there is a lady who sells the world’s most delicious strawberries (bar Scotland where I’m currently based) directly opposite.

There is parking for one car opposite the cottage on Gosport Street (digital permit arranged).
