Hubby and I had a very enjoyable week at Driftwood. The property is clean and tidy and extremely well stocked. The owners had provided nearly everything youd want (and some you didnt even know you wanted) including games, cards, books, dvds, teddies, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, hairdryer, clothes airer, cool bag, needlework kit, shoe shine Read morekit, large beach bag, chairs for beach, large beach umbrella, ironing board, iron, hoover and some n the kitchen there was kitchen roll, fry light, salt and pepper, herbs, vinegar, daddies and ketchup sauces, tea and coffee, sugar , cling film, matches and foil. The owners had also left us a bottle of fiz, packet of chocolate biscuits and milk in the fridge. I could have saved two bags of stuff if Id known this before arriving. We will definitely be coming back as it is so very handy for the village. The only slightly downside is that the parking space is a bit tight if all the cars are in the spaces. We have a Vauxhall Mokka and I would not like to try and park anything bigger. Hide

The cottage is ideally placed in the village and is very comfortable. The kitchen/diner is very modern and all appliances look new. The rooms are spacious and there are very thoughtful additions, such as a collection of books and cd's.

We had a very enjoyable week at Driftwood Cottage. The village of Milford on Sea had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The cottage is only a 10 minute walk to the beach and is also in a good position to access the New Forest's many beautiful sights and walks.

Driftwood Cottage is very cosy and clean. It is very well equipped and everything has been thought of. Its within walking distance of the beach, forest walks, fish n chip shop, microbrewery and local supermarkets. Despite the many amenities it remains quiet and has a village feel. You wont be disappointed.

Best equipped cottage weve stayed in in 30 years of self-catering holidays in the UK, also with really clear information re practicalities, appliances etc. Very centrally located, with shops, pub, cafes, seafront all very close by. Lounge and kitchen being on different floors took a bit of getting used to. Definitely hope to return next year.

Excellent cottage for couples or solo holidaymakers. The private, off-road parking space is a excellent bonus. The cottage was spotlessly clean, tastefully decorated, VERY comfortable and very well equipped. As a walker, the books, leaflets and maps detailing the delights (and dozens of walking routes) of the New Forest were put to good use. The coRead morettage is central to the village, so, all the pubs and restaurants are only a short walk away. The beach, little more than 5 minutes away. Excellent ! Hide
