Family-friendly holiday rentals in Eastleigh

What an absolute gem of a little getaway, Fiona is a great host and the shepherds hut is absolutely perfect for what we needed. The addition of homemade bread, milk, butter and jam in the fridge is such a lovely and thoughtful touch. Nothing will prepare you for how big and relaxing the hot tub is, we absolutely loved sitting in it and listening to the wildlife. The hut is really private and has its own little garden, we had breakfast lunch and dinner outside as we were so lucky with the weather! We will absolutely be back, thank you for having us!

We had a wonderful break at this beautiful place, waking to the dawn chorus every day, listening to the owls in the evening, and even saw a couple of deer in the garden, absolutely beautiful. The spa was lovely, and was such a great experience to have it to ourselves, we felt very relaxed after our long weekend stay. Fordingbridge not far to eat and drink/shop for groceries, and beautiful New Forest walks only a few minutes in the car, would highly recommend, thank you so much… and the welcome cake was lovely too!

We really enjoyed our stay at the Stables. The hot tub was the real highlight and it was beautifully warm / clean. The property was amazing for children and our young boys loved the tree house climbing frame and being able to feed the sheep / goats. A great stay which we'd definitely recommend.

Fantastic accommodation with amazing facilities. Something to suit everyone. Accommodation was very comfortable and spacious, communication by the management company was excellent, and the great location gave easy access to all amenities by car or foot. Would totally recommend and hope we can come back again in the future. It felt like a home from home.

Wonderful location with loads of chickens running around. Very cosy inside and super warm duvet so you won’t be getting cold at night. Host is very responsive and attentive. The logs supplied were quite damn and really hard to light but host was happy to compensate by supplying extra logs. Would recommend 10/10 stay. Couldn’t be happier

A charming home in a very beautiful and peaceful village, with easy access to the motorway and to both Southampton. Major supermarket a 10 min drive away, walkable pub (1/2 mile) and the historic town of Romsey just 15 mins away. The home was nicely furnished (they even decorated for Christmas for us), very clean and comfortable, and a breakfast pack had been provided to get us started. The bedrooms are all a good size but note that only the master has a queen bed, the others are all full and several are very low. Also the dining table only has 6 main chairs, with a couple of folding chairs it was full with 8 people. The kitchen is well equipped and the new fridge/freezer has a water dispenser and ice maker (great for those used to American style fridges). Jennine was highly responsive and friendly and likes to meet their guests on arrival. Would highly recommend and stay again.

What a wonderful place to stay. The peace I sought was found, the relaxation that was so much needed was there and very much welcomed. Days spent walking in the New Forest were finished with a chilled glass of wine in the hot tub that was tended daily by a really lovely chap. The lodge was spacious, clean and comfortable with the basics of equipment there for your use, which is helpful. The whole experience is one I shall repeat and have already begun to tell others to check it out too

Excellent in every way. Incredibly prompt and helpful from Justine, really the best host I’ve ever been fortunate enough to have on Airbnb. A fantastic property, couldn’t ask for more for a family stay in Ryde. Highly recommended.

we loved our stay at manor farm. the house was a treasure trove of beautiful old beams, and architectural features and fun stuff for kids and adults alike. I loved cooking on the aga and playing the piano! way bigger than expected and such a lovely peaceful location. we didn't want to leave

This was a beautiful location and property to spend quality time with family for our Dads 80th Birthday. The living area was amazing all in the same room but different seating areas. The bedrooms were large and comfortable, black out blinds, heard the owl and woodpecker in the mornings and saw horses in the field opposite, log burner was perfect for the cold evenings. Straight out the front door into the forest for long walks. I would definitely recommend to others.

We loved staying at the Turkey House this autumn. Straight out of the house you can walk through the beautiful woods up the Ashford Hangers and to the Poet’s stone. It is cosy with the Aga - never used one before but so easy and efficient to use. There is an electric stove but that wasn’t needed. The house has a ‘lived in’ feel. The well-stocked spice cupboard was very useful.

Lovely place to stay, really easy to get into town. Very clean and thoughtfully decorated. Lots of nice touches including eggs from their chickens, toiletries & board games. Felt very homely & not too cramped, even with 5 of us staying. Hosts were really friendly and accommodating. 100% recommend!

This was my second visit and met all my expectations. Set in the midst of a beautiful meadow surrounded by fields and woods yet a short distance from Ryde and fab beaches. It is a great location to recharge and reset. The All Seasons yurt is clean and well equipped for the cooler weather with cosy wood burner and a super comfy bed, and plenty of throws. The Kitchen is adequately supplied and Sarah provided a hamper of fresh produce on arrival. Sarah and Sue are warm and approachable. They clearly take a lot of pride in the upkeep of the yurt and surrounding meadow. It was all beautifully maintained. Very dog friendly too. There is plenty of parking and wheelbarrows to take stuff down. The shop is well stocked with extra logs, charcoal, wellies, homemade jams, chutneys, smoked garlic, marshmallows and freshly laid eggs. I cant recommend Fernhill Meadow highly enough, the perfect retreat. I will definitely be back.

What a fantastic oasis of tranquility to visit. Terry and Jenny are excellent hosts and could not do more for you. The huts were all styled beautifully and were spotlessly clean. The attention to detail is fantastic and Jenny has thought of everything. Sitting by the firepit at night, with a glass in hand listening to the owls was priceless. Florence, Hector and the dogs were just an added bonus. We will definitely return.

We stayed at The Barn for three nights over half term, with our two boys. We all absolutely loved our stay and Gwyneth and Peter made us feel very welcome in their home. The Barn is amazing and had everything we could ever have needed, with the fire and the table tennis table being especially well used! Gwyneth and Peter have made an exceptional place to stay and we would definitely recommend it as a place to stay when in the New Forest.

We stayed 3 nights. Great log burner which Terry assisted us with which made it very cosy. Good recommendations on where to eat and cycling routes. No kitchen which we knew but a fridge with breakfast in. Great touch. Lovely stay.

We loved our stay at the Party Barn. Katie was incredibly helpful with local recommendations and letting us use her lovely warm pool (set hours in the late afternoon, but she also gave us lots of flexibility during the day around her swimming lessons). Our kids loved visiting the pigs and sheep. The barn was very comfortable and we felt right at home there immediately. I'm sure we will be back. Thank you Katie!

Had a lovely break at Sandhills. The caravan was in a perfect spot with all the home from home comforts. Gareth and Marie were very helpful and prompt with any questions I had prior to our arrival. The park and surrounding area is very dog friendly and our dog loved her early morning walks on the beach.

Absolutely loved staying here! The place was incredibly clean, and the park had lots of things to do. Had an amazing sleep here as the beds were so comfortable, sheets were fresh and clean, and the environment was very quiet. Would stay here again!

Lovely caravan in a beautiful location. So close to the beach. The caravan had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay with all our family to celebrate a special birthday - we loved the house, all able to eat together around the table was wonderful, enjoying chatting and drinking in the beautiful lounge and the younger ones loved the hot tub and braver ones the swimming pool. Great position for all the lovely New Forest areas and walks

Had a lovely stay with family. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the property and surrounds. The living area was inviting and convivial with a cosy log fire. The host was very friendly, helpful and responsive, going out of her way to accommodate and make our stay memorable. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic location for walking & exploring. The barn is beautifully presented and stylishly furnished. Very spacious. Loved seeing the Llamas on our morning walk with our dog - on our doorstep. The New Inn pub down the road - Victoria’s tip - awesome, friendly, great food at a sensible price - try the venison or brill filets! Our only regret was that we didn’t stay for longer. Thank you team Shalfleet Farm.

very friendly, replied v quickly to a couple of pre booking queries, hot tub brilliant...
