Wow, what a lovely place that is beautifully decorated and furnished - a real little gem. Check in process was easy and the welcoming information including prosecco for adults and a kid's pack was a really nice touch. Ample parking for two cars was useful.
The hot tub was warm, clean and great to hop into after a long day exploring the New Forest. The house is well furnished, with comfy beds and plenty of space for two families to relax and unwind in. We are already looking at when to book again for next year.

We had a wonderful long weekend at Anoush. The house is really beautifully done, especially the kitchen/dining room. The garden was a perfect sanctuary with comfy outdoor seating in amongst the trees and birdsong. We found the location to be perfect for exploring all parts of the New Forest and nothing took too long to get to. The parking was good and the garden was secure for our dog, Woody. The only reason we didn't score this 5/5 is because the beds were quite creaky and the mattresses a little hard. Apart from that, we loved it!

Beautiful house in Everton, clean and comfortable with the added bonus of a jacuzzi. There is plenty of space to relax, dine and it’s very private.
Just a very short walk to the local friendly pub and a local shop. There is also a cafe at the garden centre next door which is just ok.
A 5 minute drive from Milford on Sea which we loved and has lots going on.

Anoush is a perfect getaway. So comfortable and peaceful! It was clean, warm and so well equipped. Everything you could need for a family.

You can drive to the forest to see wild ponies and donkeys. We really loved fish and chip (Mister Pink's) on the beach at Milford and taking a trip into Lymington. (Saturday market day)

This is a great place to switch off and truly unwind. Thank you so much, we will be back!



Superb Home

We really enjoyed our short stay at dog friendly Anoush. The cottage is beautifully decorated and appointed. Very clean. The hot tub, of course, was wonderful. The kitchen has all the essential cutlery, crockery and utensils. There were some lovely touches such as fresh flowers on arrival and the dog treats. The snug has a TV, only for live-streaming accounts eg., Netflix. We had no heating the first evening but this was remedied the following day by our host. The kingsize beds are comfortable. Pity there is only one bathroom which is small. We brought our dog's crate but for other dog owners and families with young children, stair gates might be useful. A lot of care and thought has gone into making this cottage a very welcoming and homely retreat. You can hear the traffic (A337) in the distance especially at night.

Thanks very much for your feedback, we are really glad that you enjoyed the property! We are sorry that you were without heating the first night and thank you for reaching out so we could get this sorted for you. We can see that you have also mentioned the bathroom size and traffic noise. Thank you again for the feedback but we do have this information on our website within descriptions, floor plans and our 'Home truths' section. So we do hope that you would be aware of these points upon booking :)

A nice birthday weekend

Overall we had a very nice stay at Anoush and it was a cute little cottage( which is defo smaller in real life), it has been decorated really nicely. We did feel the following improvements could be made:
Better signage from road side to help find cottage (difficult when gate open to see sign in the dark)
Comfier mattresses and pillows
More dishes/ serving bowls
Clingfilm/ Foil to be provided (did state there would be some)
Wire racks to put hot pans on surfaces
Another lamp in lounge as can get quite dark
A night light in garden- difficult to see bbq in winter months
Placemats for the table
Possibly provide some board games?

Nice pub within walking distance.

The cottage was really great and had a lovely feel about it. It was all decorated for Christmas which was a bonus for us visiting at Twixmas. The cottage was very clean and comfortable and cooking on the Aga was wonderful. The hot tub was great and a treat whilst the weather wasn't the best.
A lovely area with lots of places to visit and do over winter.
We would certainly recommend this cottage to others.
Only scored lower for location as you can hear some road noise and the extra cost for the hot tub and Twixmas meant it wasn't so much value for money however we had no complaints.



A nice spot in Everton with a few issues

A nice stay in Everton in a location that is better for beach walks rather than the forest.

The property has some lovely, thoughtful touches. The kitchen/dining room is a great space, well designed. The hot tub area is well designed too.

But it needs more care on the basics as well as the flourishes: terrible shower pressure (get a pump), the window doesn’t close in the main bedroom, the sofa has a broken slope, the washing machine is old and the hob. Fix those small issues and the scores will go up.

The description as a semi detached property is a little misleading. This is a large house, split in two with shared drive and bin area. Between the “properties” is a door in the kitchen and the garden with no lock on your side. I found it uncomfortable. Again, small thing to fix, and this may just be a personal lack of trust on my part.

All in all, it’s a nice property on its way to being great.

Thank you for taking time to send your review. We're pleased to hear you enjoyed your stay with us at Anoush, we too love this property. We have passed on your comments to the owners to look into and fix things where needs be. The properties do adjoin, and we are very clear about this in the 'hometruths' section of our website. The owners have gone to extra lengths to ensure sufficient sound proofing walls and been put into place. We are sorry if this caused any concern and hope this did not impact your stay too much in anyway. With very best wishes from all at New Forest Escapes.

Lovely stay in Anoush

Overall very nice house. Just a few niggles that let it down. TV not as shown in promotional photos much too small for the room and lost internet connection ruin at 11.30pm every night. Wi-Fi was hit and miss. Fridge Freezer in kitchen not as in photos. Full size iron would have been good as wouldn’t cost much and would be better than very small travel iron provided. Also washer dryer would have been better than just a washing machine as no where to dry anything once washed. Only little things but for the price would expect basics to be covered.

We had a lovely weeks stay. The cottage is immaculately clean and well equipped, the beds are comfortable and the garden is beautiful. We used the spa which was clean and well maintained and a great addition to to the accommodation.
The only slight issues are that one of the sofas in the living room is in need of attention and the cushions collapse when you sit on it and be aware that there are no shelves or anywhere to put your things in the bathroom and no plug near a mirror to dry your hair but I’m sure these could be easily fixed.
It says that you can store bikes in the garden which you can but be aware that the gate doesn’t lock so you need to lock them up.
The location was perfect for cycling and we went to some great local pubs and restaurants which were recommended by the hosts. Thankyou for a lovely stay.

Had a lovely Easter break with family (2 young kids) at Anoush. The house was exactly as described and accurate photos. Location also good, very easy to get to all the key places in the New Forest and Milton on Sea for the beach. The beds were very comfy, although pillows could’ve been firmer. The electric hob was difficult to use and no instructions, however a quick search on internet resolved this. I was grateful the AGA was on, as the hob was intermittent. The hot tub was a lovely luxury though the weather meant we did not make full use. One of the sofas needs replacing, the other was very comfy. The TV/internet was good although it seemed to stop working at 11.45pm every night! Was easy to sign into Netflix/Prime. The children loved the bunk bed room and making ‘camps’ with all the blankets/pillows. Only other points were no instructions to put heating on (which I figured out) and the windows need insulating (eg master bedroom one could not be closed properly and it was pretty cold). However, I would recommend and book again in the future (maybe summer)as everyone had an enjoyable stay.

Lovely house but let down by the poor sanitation facilities
Toilets not flushing properly
As only one shower in the whole house it needed to be better
If someone was in the shower and then someone else was washing up in the kitchen the shower literally stopped working
Not good enough in a property that cost that amount of money



Harri at New Forest Escapes replied more than 1 year ago
Thanks for taking the time to leave us your feedback, we appreciated the very sweet review left in the guestbook too. We're sorry that you struggled with the water pressure in the property. It's typically lower in some of the forest villages like Everton, although we haven't had any other complaints about it so we were surprised to learn it was especially low during your stay. If you have any problems during your stay, we ask that you let us know straight away so we can get things quickly sorted without any disturbance to your holiday. Thanks very much for staying with us.

Myself, husband baby daughter and dog visited for some time away.

We really enjoyed our stay at anoush. The house has a lovely feel to it, plenty of character and the description is accurate.
Plenty to do within easy reach by car, or a great local pub a few minutes walk

My family had a great few days at Anoush. The house was beautifully renovated and was very comfortable - had everything we need and we had some great evenings sitting outside in the garden.

It’s also very well located and a short drive to shops, the beach and nice walks.
