The perfect base for New Forest adventures... in the sweetest village of Sway! | Cottage in Lymington
3 Bedroom Cottage in New Forest District, Lymington
The perfect base for New Forest adventures… in the sweetest village of Sway!
Nestled amongst the National Park, Popsy Cottage is ideally suited for families, friends, and avid-adventurers (be that on bike, foot or even hoof!) to explore it all; the village is surrounded by National Park and a short walk through the lanes will have you out to the endless forest paths & cycling tracks. Or head to the sparkly shores of Milford, Keyhaven & Barton beach each a 10 minute drive away.
Sway train station offers a convenient way to get here (only 2 hours from central London), so hop off the train, or out of your car, and feel immediately at ease amongst the fresh air and abundance of greenery! Follow the church bells (St Lukes is the nearly-next door 17th Century church) to discover your getaway, where our colourful cottage is ready for you to settle-in…
With a cosy living room (compete with log burner) to curl up in by-night, the spacious and open-plan kitchen/diner… our fave room… is flooded with light, and well-kitted out for feasting, relaxing, and spilling out to the garden!
Just through the churchyard, Sway Village has all you need to stock-up on; with a couple of convenience stores, a pharmacy, a pub, a small deli/cafe… and an award-winning butchers that is arguably the New Forest's favourite! Returning home… via The Silver Hind perhaps?! … we recommend throwing open the bi-folds for a BBQ, before another adventure-filled day begins!
This is a SUPER family-friendly & welcoming place to call home (guests are welcome to bring a dog, or two if they are small/medium breeds), with lots of games to enjoy, and thoughtful touches to make everyone feel happy and relaxed! We love the pops of colour, fun artwork & ode to indoor/outdoor living throughout, but also that there is so much to see and do just on your doorstep… Popsy provides just the place to experience the New Forest ‘good life'!

Inside...
Popsy is one of a few newly-built brick cottages - with a sensitive design to reflect its National Park surroundings on the outside, and all the mod cons to make you feel at home inside...
The entrance hall opens into the sitting room, with a huge corner sofa that will seat everyone, and a wood burner for getting cosy.
Leading in to the kitchen/diner, this spacious and open-plan room includes a well-kitted out kitchen & island with stools, table for 6, and sofa. The bi-folds open up into the garden area, for a dose of indoor/outdoor living. There is also a handy utility room downstairs, with a loo and sink tucked out of the way
Upstairs there are three bedrooms; with a generous king size master + walk-in shower en-suite + two well proportioned rooms (one of which can be changed to twins). Each with wooden blinds, great storage, and a light and bright feel- the master and larger double room can both accommodate a travel cot (one cot is provided).
The family bathroom upstairs is a very good size and sparkly in all the right places!
Outside...
There is a little garden to the rear of the house with a shed that can be used as storage for bikes, and access available through either the kitchen/diner, or the secure coded-alleyway.
There are two seating areas (one rattan sofa, and one table with chairs) and a coal BBQ at-the-ready outside- perfect for alfresco dining and sun worshipping; and the kitchen/diner bi-folds let you spill in and out at your leisure. More planting and painting has been planned outside, but this sun-trap is a great spot to read, relax or dine in. The nearest (and very lovely) picnic spot is in the churchyard nearly-next-door. St Lukes was built in 1832 and you'll hear the village bells peel from the house.
Home truths
Take the virtual tour on our website to get a really good 'feel' for Popsy Cottage's layout and proportions. Alongside the master and the double room, the kingsize room can be turned into twins.
The garden here is small and to the rear of the cottage, so please be mindful of noise as this is a residential area. The garden will be further planted and painted during the summer months.
There is only 1 stairgate at the top of the stairs.
Due to the proximity of the church, you may hear the bells ringing– we love that – but we're just saying! Sunday Church Services start at 9.45am.
There is an extra charge for logs and kindling to burn on the fire (October- March) but feel free to BYO!
