Irene Morris, Bench Cottage

"This is the first time we have stayed in a property adapted for the needs of the disabled. It was wonderful for my wife to be able to have a shower whilst on holiday, and to move around freely in her wheelchair whenever she wanted. The homemade scones went down a treat!"

Steve Jeffery, Little Bench

"A lovely location... 5 minutes in one direction and you are in the New Forest, 5 minutes in the other and you overlook the Needles on the Isle of Wight. Highly recommended and would definitely book again."
