Made for serious relaxation... | Cottage in Ringwood

With an abundance of woodlands quite literally on your doorstep, you can expect fresh air adventures aplenty from Little Patch; with bike-riding, deer spotting, and pub pottering all on the itinerary. When you are all ready to head home, just follow the donkeys and ponies down the lane, where creature comforts await…
Whilst the blackened cladding pops against the flora & fauna outside; inside your ‘luxe lodge', natural and calming hues welcome you to soak up the good life in complete comfort. From the top-notch styling, to the green-filled scenes that surround, everything here is served with a very generous helping of Hamptons-chic.
After a busy day, we can think of nothing cosier then settling in together by the living room's roaring fire, or having a read-a-thon (or catnap) in the annexe… what a cherry on top. For tomorrow's plans, we'd highly recommend factoring in a breakfast with birdsong, and a supper under the stars from your porch & veranda– just WOW!
Pssst- Whilst your idyllic Mockbeggar location encourages you to get completely off grid, the buzzy town of Ringwood is not far and perfect for stocking-up and eating out!

INSIDE
You'll feel like you're cocooned in the treetops from Little Patch as your leafy lodge boasts a VIP forest location with views to-boot. We love how everything feels top-notch and luxe here, with Hampton-esque style references and gorgeous natural textures throughout (linen, leather, and sisal galore!).
With a cosy annexe that's perfect for late night chatter & games, a spacious living room to sink back and relax, and a light-filled kitchen to flow around in – you're spoilt for choice with where to spend your time.
There's plenty of room for everyone to make themselves at home, but we especially love the HUGE window seat in the living room for reading and/or catnapping - pop the record player on for extra effect! The large TV here also offers rest bite after a busy day, and feels extra snuggly with the fire on during the colder months.
You may find the gorgeous glass framed kitchen inspires everyone on the guest list to whip up something yummy, and we love how you can spill out onto the porch for alfresco suppers under the stars. You'll also spot the annexe here which offers the perfect place for movie nights and games- It's a great multi-functional space in the day too with windows that make the most of your glorious leafy views!
The three bedrooms all face the hillside where you'll overlook lovely green-filled holly & hedgerow scenes. You may well spot ponies and deer from here too, and you'll be sure to hear the owls come nightfall. The two double rooms are a good size, whilst the twin is perfectly formed for younger guests.
There are two family bathrooms. The one nearest the twin room is the biggest and built by someone who likes to spend time luxuriating in a big bath. The second shower room has a really good size walk in shower.
There is also a small utility room & WC just off the kitchen for washing and drying kit- everything is on-hand to help settle you in to country living!
OUTSIDE
The verandah wraps around the front of the house and there are two Adirondack chairs by the front door. This is the spot for the best view.
The view here is bucolic and gentle. From the house you can see down through the oak tree canopies and into the water meadow valley below. So in autumn you can see the naughty pigs on their explorations from time-to-time.
The terrace sits between the house and the annexe. There's plenty of room here for the outdoor table (seats 6). The cabana is part of the annexe and has a good wicker sofa which is well set in away from the rain, so you can relax outside here and enjoy the wilder weather in the dry.
Below the house and parking area there are 2 more wooden Adirondack chairs.
** HOT TUB INFO - you may notice there is a hot tub in pics at the property, however this is currently not in use**

HOME TRUTHS
The track to the house is gravel and in pretty good condition. The driveway is steep and you will need to take it steady to get up to the parking area.
The neighbours are sensitive about noise and yappy dogs, so please only stay here with a calm dog who is used to staying away from home.
Please make sure there is no loud noise before 8am, reduced noise after 9pm and just quiet conversation after 10pm.
There is an extra charge for logs and kindling to burn on the fire (October- March) but feel free to BYO!

The drive is steep and won't suit those who have very limited mobility.
Whilst you can park within 10 metres of the front door, there are 15-20 steps to climb up to get there. Inside the house is on one floor, as is the terrace and annexe.
