Special Offers, Treats and Last Minute Offers

Occasionally a week or weekend becomes unexpectedly available in one of our fully accessible cottages. Sometimes we release a rare short summer break. At other times we can add thoughtful extras to make your stay easier, calmer, or more celebratory. When something opens up, you will find it here.

We do not run permanent discounts. This page is for genuine cancellations, rare short breaks, and optional stay enhancements. If you see dates that work for you, please get in touch promptly, book through the web site - include any special request in the notes box, or type in the voucher code.

Late availability, Special offer weeks and cancellations

If a cancellation occurs, we may be able to offer a short notice booking window, a reduced minimum stay, or added value rather than a price reduction. Accessibility needs can require extra planning, so we keep this simple and clear. If we have availability in the next 8 weeks, we can often accommodate flexible bookings from as little as two nights, just ask us for details - and it we can make it work we will!

Sensory aware stays

Many of our families benefit from a calmer environment. If someone in your group experiences sensory processing differences, episodic neurological conditions, anxiety, or simply needs a quieter set up, please talk to us before arrival.

What we can often provide

  • Additional sensory lighting options
  • Blackout blinds, where available
  • Flexible furniture positioning with prior agreement

How we make this easy

Tell us what helps and what to avoid. You do not need to explain everything. A few simple notes are enough. We will respond with what is possible in your chosen cottage.

Making memories that matter

The New Forest is full of moments that are easy to miss when life is busy, and even harder to access when disability adds extra logistics. During your stay, you can choose to include a gentle forest walk with local guidance, and the option of relaxed outdoor photography.

Forest walks with Helen as your guide

Helen grew up in Lymington and knows the quieter routes, accessible paths and seasonal highlights of the New Forest. Walks are gentle and chosen around your mobility, equipment, and energy levels.

  • Accessible route suggestions
  • Gentle walks at your pace
  • Local history and wildlife insights
  • Ideas for calm, low crowd spots

Relaxed photography to capture time together

If you would like photographs from your stay, sessions are calm and unhurried, with comfort first. Many families tell us these images become their favourite reminder of a rare week of ease and togetherness.

  • Wheelchair friendly locations
  • Natural, outdoor feel
  • No pressure, no long distances
  • Planned around energy levels
