Cottage vacation rentals in Freshwater

Up there with the best. Lovely place, as others have said the photos don't do it justice. More importantly for us it had loads of outdoors to explore and we enjoyed the wide range of bird calls at dawn and dusk

We had a lovely stay at Greenbank. The house was spacious, tidy and clean, and we appreciated the extras provided by the host (towels, toiletries, tea and coffee). The property is just a short walk away from a playground , shop, pharmacy and local places to explore, which we enjoyed investigating. Our 4-year-old loved reading the children's books from around the house and the garden was a lovely spot to play in. We paid to have the hot tub, which we found easy to use and great fun. Thank you to Amy for a lovely stay.

Stayed here for my 50th birthday for a girly weekend away. Beautiful little cottage with beautiful gardens surrounding the property. 5 star hosts. Very friendly and very informative. Obvious how much they love what they do. We had great fun in the games room. And the hot tub was a lovely treat and a well needed relaxation after we walked into Burley village and back. The food hamper was amazing with everything we needed or could want. Local supermarket not far away either. Lovely gift 🎁 from the hosts on arrival a bottle of wine and box of choccies. Yummy. Thank you very much. And finally getting to cuddle a 9 week old Bengal kitten who belonged to our hosts has to be the highlight of our weekend. He was beautiful and we nicknamed him Burley. Wish I could have taken him home. Highly recommend this beautiful little cottage and its amazing hosts. Thank you ladies I had an awesome 50th birthday 🎈 xxx

The hosts were helpful from the moment we booked our stay. We were given clear instructions on where to arrive and were greeted as soon as we pulled into the carpark. They explained all the necessary information and answered all of our questions and were very helpful. They were always available if we had any queries and gave plenty of local recommendations for food and activities. We would 100% recommend and would be more than happy to book again.

Great hosts, lovely place to stay. Would highly recommend and would definitely go back.

Fantastic stay at a beautiful location in the New Forest. The hosts were really welcoming and couldn’t have been more helpful with local recommendations, the property is lovely, and all the animals were a big bonus for the kids. Highly recommended and we’d love to return.

A perfect find for a relaxing weekend with friends. This place was spotless, peaceful, spacious, filled with everything you could possibly need, and in a perfect location. We really appreciated the instructions written throughout the house, it meant there was no room for confusion and we didn't have a reason to message the host all weekend as they'd covered everything. We will absolutely be coming back.

My first time booking an Airbnb and was a wonderful experience, everything was so seamless and stress free. Chrissy was always so attentive to make sure we were okay and to contact her if we needed and also more than happy to leave us to our holiday if preferred. Spotless and clean premises whilst also feeling like a home away from home. Couldn’t fault anything. Would always recommend to people looking for a relaxing getaway. Thank you so much again :)

Such a lovely place and location. Loved the birdsong, very peaceful. The Old Mill for dinner was outstanding!

We had such a wonderful stay at Rebecca's lovely cottage. Perfect location away from London, with some real characters. We'll be back!

Truely stunning stay. Such a beautiful home and location. Would recommend for a family stay as little ones loved the toys, charm and ample space.

Great stay with my wife and 2 kids at Katrin's place. Bungalow was very clean, spacious with 3 great size bedrooms. Nicely furnished and plenty of useful extras and activities. Really appreciated the lovely welcome pack of brownies, homemade jam, bread, milk and butter. Nicely situated in a quiet road, just a short walk or cycle back to the main high street. Would highly recommend and will be booking again!

Perfectly situated right in the centre of Wimborne. We only stayed one night but would definitely come back, it was a lovely house full of character. Ideal for couples or families.

Really beautiful house, amazing peaceful area and Fiona left perfect instructions on where to find the place Definitely will plan to come again

We had a great stay at Jo’s place for our group of 4. Cozy, charming and clean historic cottage with an up to date kitchen and bath. The beds are comfy. We loved the long narrow garden which opens up to the common green space. Couple of things to be aware of: ceilings are low (people were small back then) so tall people have to take extra care. Also the bathroom is on the first floor and the bedrooms are on the second. Jo was a responsive host and flexible with check in. Corfe castle is a great base to explore the area and village itself had some good pubs, and a good bakery. Highly recommended!

We had a lovely time staying at the cottage. The cottage was a great base for our exploring round the Isle of Wight. I can imagine the decking area is lovely in the summertime. Lots of space out the back for our dog to run around outside. The rooms were good size and clean and the kitchen well stocked with utensils and cooking items. Gail was very helpful and responsive and we are very grateful!

It was such a lovely cottage, so well supplied, comfortable, clean, private. A real home away from home. We can’t recommend it enough

really great house in an ideal location, walking distance from the foot ferry into Cowes. had everything we needed to visit the island for the weekend for a wedding

this worked really well for us. The house is. in a wonderful location next to the sea and lovely walks from the front door. Sara wad a fantastic host very good at communicating and incredibly generous. We would definitely stay again.

We stayed here with our 2 young kids (3yo and 18 months) for 4 nights. The house is in a brilliant location. Just 1 min walk to esplanade which has a paddling pool for young kids and play area adjacent to the beach. There is also a Waitrose 2 min walk in the opposite direction. The house is approx 20mins drive to Shanklin and our kids throughly enjoyed the beach and the rides. Would highly recommend this property and will be booking it again next year.

Wow! We had such a lovely stay. We just wanted to kick back for a few days and rest and this was perfect. Perfect cottage and perfect area. The cottage is immaculately kept and so well equipped with lovely little welcoming touches. Croissants were lovely, as were the Ferrero Rocher! Hosts were excellent. We had a short Wifi outage which made no difference to us but Ashley was quick to update us that they had a supplier issue and would be fixed asap. All in all, we had a lovely time, it felt like home from home. We relaxed, enjoyed the log burner and watched the birds! PERFECT! Thank You!

Beautiful and cosy house in a great location. Highly recommend if you're staying in Poole. Only a very short walk to Poole quay. Lucy is a friendly host who has fitted the place out to a very high standard.

Thank you so much to Helen for being the perfect host. The cottage was beautiful, a real home from home. Clean, tidy, beautifully decorated with everything that we needed. Helen was so helpful and provided a high chair that we asked for. Plus a helpful directory in the cottage with recommendations for places to eat and visitor attractions.

We loved staying near the river and the courtyard garden was suitable for storing our kayak and SUP. You can launch them for a small fee just 100m down from the cottage which was perfect. We paddled up toward Wareham and beyond but you can go the other way toward Poole harbour as well. The accommodation was perfect for our needs and the garden was dog-proof, even for our little terrier. The walk into Wareham was lovely and only takes 10-15 mins. It’s a short drive to the coast or to RSPB Arne but you can easily fill a few days without using the car. We hope to stay again some time.
