Optional extra accommodation
The Retreat
A little more space for two or three additional guests, available only as an add-on to a stay at The Thatched Cottage.
A little more space
Stay together, with room to spread out
The Retreat is designed for groups staying at The Thatched Cottage who would benefit from some additional sleeping space and facilities.
It gives larger parties the flexibility to stay together at the same property while allowing part of the group a little more space of their own.
It can be a useful option for extended families, friends travelling together or groups where extra sleeping capacity would make the stay more comfortable.
Important to know
The Retreat is not a separate holiday let
It cannot be booked on its own.
The Retreat is available only as an optional addition to a booking for The Thatched Cottage.
The Thatched Cottage: up to 4 guests
The Retreat: space for a further 2-3 guests
The exact sleeping arrangement, facilities and add-on price will be confirmed before direct booking opens.
Who it works for
More flexibility for your group
The Retreat gives you another option when four beds in the cottage are not quite enough.
Extended family stays
Bring more of the family while keeping everyone together at the same New Forest base.
Friends travelling together
Useful when a group wants to share the same stay without placing everyone in the cottage itself.
A little extra privacy
An additional space can make a shared break feel more relaxed when different guests have different routines.
