    Very enjoyable stay at Post Cottage.

    The narrow drive to the rear of Londis where the private parking space was located, which we used daily with private gate to the rear garden. There was on-street parking available out front. If you didn't wish to use the car, it is only a 5 minute walk to the train station and bus stop.

    Post Cottage is well equipped with comfortable furniture to the conservatory and lounge and very comfy beds too. We loved the position with The Silver Hind (good food) to one side and a Londis to the other side. A Co-op and pharmacy etc was also close by and the New Forest Deli and butchers were a short walk up the road. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend.

    The house was in excellent condition. It's located next to the station which was ideal for our family with small child who travelled down by train.

    Could do with another chair in the conservatory and a lamp/ softer lighting in the living room.

    Excellent location in a lovely village with a pub, a deli and the co-op close by. The cottage was cosy and the conservatory a real bonus.

    Very small issue: my wife tore her pants on a nail that was sticking out a bit on the stairs.

    Very pleasant and helpful hosts. Good location, nice and clean property with most things you might want for a short stay, including a fully stocked kitchen, all toiletries, and the stuff you need for kids.

    Lovely little 3 bedroom house with garden in Sway. Clean and modern inside. Walkable to a playground, small co-op and a pub next door (we didn’t use the pub but it looked lovely). We hired bikes nearby and went cycling with the kids on easy tracks in the New Forest. Parking is on the street outside or opposite near shops which was fine. Fabulous stay.

    Just make sure you close the dishwasher door firmly. I thought I'd put it on the night before we left. I only realised my .mistake the next morning and so the cycle hadn't finish by the time we left. Sorry!

    We had a lovely, relaxing stay here. The house was light, airy and spotlessly clean. The kitchen was well-equipped and even had a few basics for cooking (oil condiments etc). The beds were comfortable and there was a good shower. Lovely, quiet location with a great pub nearby serving good food.. We would definitely return. Highly recommend.

    Could have done with a bigger frying pan!

    The house was really easy to find and in a great location next to a lovely pub and across the road from a handy Co-op. Very easy walk to the train station. Good to have allocated parking but there was street parking too. Beautiful house, really clean and comfortable. Everything you need for a comfortable stay.

    A bigger and possibly more in depth welcome folder to help you orientate yourself at the start of your stay other than that we could fault this little gem .

    clean and tidy .It had all that was needed for three friends to stay in without getting in each others way . Don't be put off by the pub next door we never even noticed it (running the new forest marathon so never used the pub).
