### Thatched cottage with hot tub, games room, and garden – ideal for romantic breaks or family escapes
Tucked away in a peaceful corner of the New Forest, Stag Cottage is a charming two-bedroom thatched hideaway just a short stroll from Burley village.

The setting is private, yet help is always nearby — your host, Cindy, lives quietly on-site in the separate main house and is available if needed, whether for a local tip, special request, or just a warm welcome when you arrive.
