The Old Post Office, Burgate.
Very sweet little cottage, ingeniously fitted with everything we needed for a short stay. It was a pleasure to meet the owner and look round the grounds, seeing the other cottages. The only drawback with the Old Post Office is its nearness to the main road: in hot weather one might want to open the windows for air - but then the noise also.
Stayed 2 nights in May 2022

We had a fantastic stay the The Old Post Office.
We had a fantastic stay the The Old Post Office. The cottage was compact with everything provided. Although on a busy road once the door was closed, the lounge/bedroom area was lovely and quiet. Centrally located we were able to visit the villages around the New Forest and visit Salisbury, enjoying teas and meals along the way. Jeremy was very friendly and helpful with information on the local area (and he had a lovely family) We would love to stay again.
