 Little Popes
Brook, Lyndhurst, Hampshire.,United Kingdom
Set in the New Forest National Park in the pretty hamlet of Brook, Little Popes stands detached and dates back 600 years. Thatched and Grade II listed, it is a charming, `chocolate-box' cottage, oozing character and displaying a wealth of beams. There are two covered wells within the grounds to the front, whilst the large enclosed rear garden makes a wonderful spot where guests can relax on the decked area. The cottage base provides a real haven from which to enjoy and explore the surrounding area. The New Forest can be discovered on foot, or by car or bicycle - exploring some of the appealing villages, and perhaps stopping for a cream tea in one of the many popular tearooms. Hampshire was enjoyed by the English novelist Jane Austen - with her house and museum in Chawton, and her final resting place in Winchester Cathedral. There are many activities for the family to enjoy, including Marwell Zoological Park, New Forest Otter and Owl Wildlife Park or a day out at Beaulieu Motor Museum to name a few places of interest nearby. Further a field, but well worth a trip, is Monkey World and the Tank Museum near Wool. Southampton, with its maritime history and West Quay shopping centre, makes for a good day out browsing around the shops; whilst beach lovers will enjoy a day by the sea at the Blue Flag beaches of Hayling Island, Bournemouth and Sandbanks Poole. Two pubs and two golf courses can be found within a short stroll.
