Holiday Bungalow in Everton - Hampshire

A refurbished bungalow in a secluded corner of Everton village
Visit Britain 4 stars.
On a quiet cul de sac close to the centre of the village. Everton is midway between Milford-on-sea which has an excellent choice of shops, pubs and restaurants and the bustling river town of Lymington that has a car ferry to the Isle of Wight. The bungalow is within walking distance of the local pub ‘The Crown’ which has an excellent reputation for good food. The village shop/post office is also close by. The beaches, coastal paths and the New Forest National park are all within a 5 minute drive.

The bay fronted sitting room has two comfortable sofas, one a divan, a large flat screen plasma screen TV with all the free-view channels and occasional tables.

The bedroom which overlooks the sheltered garden, has a king size bed which can be split into two good size singles, a dressing table and a hanging and storage cupboard. The en-suite bathroom has been recently refurbished with a large walk-in shower, new basin etc. (Note: it does not have a bath).

The fitted kitchen has an electric hob/oven, microwave, washing machine and fridge and leads through to the conservatory. This sunny area enjoys the morning sun and has a dining room table, chairs and a sofa. The conservatory looks out onto the rear garden and patio. A garden table, chairs and barbeque are also provided.

Other facilities include a DVD player, radio and CD player and a selection of games, books and magazines. We also provide you with a complimentary parking ticket for many of the local car parks. Gas fired central heating (and plenty of hot water) is provided.

Parking is directly outside the bungalow.

Pets: we do accept one small well behaved dog, however, we do ask, that in fairness to our other guests, the dog does not sleep on the bed or lie on the sofa, chairs etc.

Available All Year.

To us, an important element of any holiday is going out and discovering interesting places to enjoy a drink or a good meal. Fortunately, over the last few years Milford has become a bit of a ‘foodie’ destination. There are in fact no less than five restaurants, three pubs and four coffee places all within a 5-10 minute walk of Mulberry Barn and Old Walls flat. What’s more by summer 2009 two more restaurants and a wine bar are scheduled to open.

Whilst within walking distance of Lime Grove is one of the finest New Forest gourmet pubs – the Crown.

All the following views are our personal experiences, and there are many other worthy places to visit and we suggest buying the local newspaper ‘Lymington Times’ for all the nearby restaurant promotions and advertisements. We do recommend booking particularly Friday and Saturday nights as well as Sunday lunch.

Bon Appetite!


Milford-on-sea restaurants

Piccolo Mondo. Cosy, friendly and fun. The Mediterranean menu has some tasty Italian favourites, some excellent pizzas and good inexpensive house wines. Service and food quality a little inconsistent – but it is a fun restaurant. Call Jacques Younes for reservations on 01590 643557.

Just outside the New Forest boundary is Milford-on-Sea, one of the very few remaining coastal villages on the south coast. It still has over 50 listed properties (Old Walls being one of them!) and retains much of its early 20th Century character. Magnificent woodland and cliff top walks are immediately on hand and it is only a short drive to the heart of the New Forest.

Milford-on-Sea’s extensive coastal path offers spectacular views from the western end of the Isle of Wight, right across Christchurch Bay to the Isle of Purbeck. Linked to Milford-on-Sea’s conservation area is the ‘Pleasure Grounds’ where 14 acres of woodland with a network of footpaths follows the Danes Stream which runs parallel to the coast.

The village green is the focal point of Milford and here you will find a good mixture of shops – grocer, butcher, baker, fish monger, off license, chemist, post office, HSBC bank, souvenirs, newsagent, coffee places, restaurants and pubs.

From Milford beach a shingle spit leads to Hurst Castle, which Henry VIII built to defend the Solent and is now managed by English Heritage. A passenger ferry runs between the castle and Keyhaven with its fishing and sailing harbour, sea-wall walks through Keyhaven Nature Reserve and historic Gunn Inn.

Because of the village’s position, the lack of main road through traffic, the fine Norman Church and old fashioned charm, Milford-on-Sea is a popular destination for visitors throughout the year. Milford and Everton make an ideal base for exploring both the Hampshire/Dorset coast and the New Forest area. Just 2-3 miles away is Lymington, well known for its picturesque quay area, sailing and Saturday market, the car ferry to Yarmouth, on the Isle of Wight, leaves from a small port on the other side of the town.

Just beyond Milford and Everton is the whole of the New Forest area, over 210 square miles of woods, open hearth land, wonderful walks, New Forest Ponies and deer.
