A secluded hideaway in the New Forest

Our sincere apologies to all would-be guests for the coming season, but Little Barn will not be opening in 2016

Jenny & Jim

Escape to the Hampshire countryside for a romantic holiday at our 16 acre farm. Our recently refurbished ‘Little Barn’ guest suite offers comfort, privacy and peace for couples staying for short breaks of 3 to 7 nights.

Just down the lane, you can walk straight onto the open forest and explore miles of traffic-free heath and woodland inclosures. The network of gravel tracks and grassy pathways is perfect for rambling, cycling, horse riding or fungi foraging.

A great getaway location

At Fishpond Piece Farm, you’ll find a relaxing hideaway in an away-from-it-all country haven. Being in the heart of a National Park means that this is a preserved area and nature abounds – right on your doorstep. You might see deer, foxes, rabbits and herons from your window, and out on the Forest you’re sure to meet ponies, cattle and often pigs roaming wild and foraging amongst the bracken and hedgerows. Even so, it’s only moments to the M27 with easy access from London, the Midlands and the West Country.

We also have the unique advantage of being located on the shore of Leominstead Lake, with wonderful views over the tranquil water.

One of the most popular New Forest pubs is just ten minutes’ stroll away, while in Lyndhurst (2 miles) there’s an excellent choice of tea rooms, restaurants and shops, as well as the New Forest Visitors’ Centre, museum, cycle hire and open top bus tours (in summer). There’s also a village shop in Minstead which is just under 2miles away. We’re within easy reach by car of the picturesque coastal town of Lymington, several beaches, nature reserves and the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu.

You might want to take a picnic and go rambling, try out a tandem in the forest inclosures, go on a pub-to-pub hack on horseback or simply relax with a book by the lake – whatever you feel like doing, Fishpond Piece Farm is an ideal starting point.

We look forward to welcoming you to our much loved corner of the Forest. Please call us on (02380) 283792, or email fishpondjen@gmail.com to plan your stay.
