Country cottage set in a peaceful hamlet on the edge of the New Forest

The Snug is a newly converted one bedroom cottage nestled in an idyllic country hamlet, on the edge of Somerley Park and just minutes from the New Forest National Park. Very close to the ancient market town of Ringwood, which has a range of shops including Waitrose and Waterstones. The cottage is attached to the owner's property, but is very private with a beautiful sunny, secluded garden terrace.

The spacious ground floor accommodation provides a large double bedroom with king-size bed, luxury en-suite shower room, fully equipped galley kitchen and oak-beamed, large cosy sitting room with wood burner.

Absolutely stunning
We’ve visited 4 times and each time is simply perfect. Everything is pristine with so much thought and care put into every finishing touch from the gorgeous interior to the thoughtful hamper on arrival. Beautiful during the day with the sunshine pouring through and cosy at night with the warm toned lights and lovely fire. We can’t wait to return again, our home from home!

A perfect place to stay
My husband and I enjoyed a 3 night break at The Snugg, Ellingham, near Ringwood. It was a very relaxing place to stay and it had been decorated and furnished to a very high standard. The bed was so comfortable and the linen and towels were of very high quality. There is a little courtyard garden where we sat out and enjoyed watching various birds visiting the feeder. We were left a very nice welcome hamper and the owners even asked us what type of pillows/duvet we would like. Great thought is put into making sure their guests have a lovely stay and we sure did! Thank you!

Snug-tastic!
Stayed 4 fabulous nights at the Snug; a perfect base for exploring the delights of the New Forest, or just for lounging around enjoying the peace & quiet, if you’re feeling lazy.. guilty on both counts! The owners couldn’t have been more helpful & informative, and the accommodation was spotlessly clean & well thought out. An easy 5 stars & highly recommended.

A Charming Cottage
Our hosts Kim and Nigel provided a warm welcome to a cozy, well-appointed cottage with everything done to the highest standards. The private beautifully designed sun deck was our favourite retreat. The location was perfect close Ringwood, the New Forest and the coast, yet far enough off the road to experience only peace, quiet and songbirds. Our hosts were very helpful in providing information and maps to all the local attractions. We would go back anytime.

Weekend break
An absolutely beautiful stay, both in terms of property and location. So peaceful and quiet. The property was outstanding, so comfortable and Kim was such a kind and lovely host. There was a wonderful hamper of breakfast items which was such a lovely and thoughtful touch. There are beautiful walks just minutes from the property with guide books in the property. I can’t recommend this place more highly. I am so glad we found it and would thoroughly recommend it.

Delightful orooerty
Thoroughly enjoyed our four night stay in the Snug. It was wonderfully comfortable and welcoming with lots of little extra touches of luxury. The hamper was the best we ve had for some time and definitely set the tone. Kim and Nigel were friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Will certainly recommend to friends and family.

5* stay
We recently stayed at The Snug in the New Forest for two nights, and it was an absolute delight. The cottage exuded warmth and coziness, with its immaculate and tastefully decorated interior. Every corner was spotless, reflecting the care and attention to detail by Kim, the host. The thoughtful touches, like a selection of essential food items, added to the homely feel. The log burner created a romantic ambiance, perfect for snuggling up on chilly evenings. Situated in a great location, we were able to explore the beauty of the New Forest effortlessly. Overall, our stay was nothing short of wonderful, and I would highly recommend this cottage to anyone seeking a peaceful and idyllic getaway.

Highly recommended.
WOW, the cottage looked exactly like the pictures, if not better. Good quality fixtures and fittings. Lovely big towels & gorgeous bedding. There was every thing you need for a short break, including a warm welcome from the host Kim and a super welcome hamper, again with quality products. There were logs with which to light a fire to sit & enjoy the Prosecco left for us & a cute outside seating area which caught the afternoon sun. We would love to return sometime, longer than for just 2 nights.
