Piggy Cottage is set in three acres within the New Forest National Park with direct access to the Forest. Situated on a 'no through road' it boasts probably one of the best locations in the north west side of the Forest, in the small hamlet of Mockbeggar which is mentioned in the Heyward Sumner book. It is a hidden gem which nestles in a non working farm courtyard with a thatched Grade II listed farmhouse which dates back to the 17th Century.
If it is walking, cycling, bird-spotting or just diving into local history, Mockbeggar
is the ideal place for you and it is only a short journey to the beaches of
Bournemouth, and historic Salisbury with its markets on Tuesdays and Saturdays.
Ringwood, a market town, is only three miles away and has its own market on a
Wednesday. There are so many places to visit, from garden centres to historic
houses to museums. A true forest experience.
You can collect fresh eggs from our rare breed chickens or stroll through donkeys, horses, cattle etc. to the local village shop/post office to catch up with local gossip, or collect a newspaper and some local produce. A little further along is a farm shop selling organic meat and other goods.
In this centrally heated idyllic cottage you will find all your needs to hand – such
as a well-stocked cupboard and fridge containing all your favourite breakfast
bites and much more, a comfortable large leather bed settee and a wood-burning stove. Perfect to relax in the evenings in front of the tv. A selection of books and videos is over the piano for you to enjoy. The bedroom is spacious and fresh. It accommodates either twin beds or a double. The bathroom is cosy and spotless.
