This beautifully positioned property is nestled amongst a plethora of mature beech and oak trees forming the outskirts of Buckland Rings; an Iron Age hill fort on the edge of Lymington. Accessed via a long tree lined drive, the property is tucked away and in a very tranquil position. The proximity and antiquity of the fort and its surrounding ramparts and ditches provide a unique setting steeped in history yet just a mile from the centre of Lymington.

Local walks are superb. Buckland Rings Hill Fort forms part of the New Forest National Park onto which the property has direct access. Lymington is renowned for its sailing with several deep water marinas and superb access to the Solent. Trains to London run from Lymington Town station via Brockenhurst and take a little under two hours.

The house is approached over a long, tree-lined private drive leading to a five bar gate. There is parking on the driveway where you can find the detached single garage with power and light are connected and which also contains a workshop and store room. Attractive and well planted gardens surround the house and are mainly laid to lawn and surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. There is also a paved terrace accessed directly from the kitchen and living room. The lawn gardens extend to the rear of the house and run down to a self contained wooden log cabin.  The chalet has one double bedroom, bathroom and large living room as well as a veranda to sit out and enjoy the garden views and peace.
