SITUATION
The village of Hordle is a close neighbour of the small and busy town of New Milton to the west, and the popular Georgian market town of Lymington to the east. A general store is complimented by a selection of further shops, two pubs and an ‘Ofsted’ outstanding primary school. For leisure activities, the choice of wonderful coastal walks at Milford on Sea is matched by the New Forest, which provides an area of outstanding natural beauty with ancient woods and heathland enjoyed by riders and walkers alike. Sway lies approximately 3 miles north, where the main line station connects to London Waterloo and the nearby A337 gives direct access to junction 1 of the M27 motorway.
GROUNDS & GARDENS
The front garden has been well designed with a block pathed driveway providing ample parking for numerous vehicles. The remaining frontage is mainly gravelled with low shrub borders. To the back of the house and facing South is a lovely patio leading off from the sitting room. The lawned garden stretches away and is filled with colourful plantings, well maintained lawn, hedge borders, a useful side shed and a lovely wooden summer house.

Living in Milford on Sea
Milford on Sea is currently a property hot spot. It is one of the last remaining seaside villages in Hampshire and is delightfully picturesque with a proper village green at its centre. This green is often the focus for popular village events such as maypole dancing and the annual food festival and is fringed by a range of independents (including antiques shops, butcher’s, chemists and greengrocer’s). Recently Milford has developed something of a reputation as a foodie destination with its collection of tea rooms, bistros, wine bar, fish and chips and specialist fish restaurant, plus more.
This is a vibrant village with a friendly and lively community, and appeals to both young families (the primary school has been rated ‘outstanding’ by Ofsted) and older couples looking for somewhere on the coast to relax. The old-fashioned seafront stretches from Hurst spit and Keyhaven nature reserve in the east towards Christchurch Harbour to the west, and enjoys lovely views across the Solent to the Isle of Wight and the Needles.
A good mix of properties includes striking contemporary seafront homes and cliff top apartments with big sea views, quaint terraced old fishermen’s cottages and some substantial 1920s and 1930s Ravenscroft arts and crafts influenced homes in and around Barnes Lane.
