The cottage is right in the heart of the New Forest National Park, with direct forest access just at the end of the lane therefore you are often likely to see ponies, cattle and donkeys wandering past so please don't forget to shut the gate!
Please note that access to Oak Tree Cottage is via an unmade gravel track. Please drive carefully as there may be potholes.

Witches, Smuggling and Dragons
Witches, smuggling and dragons are part of burley's unique character. During the late 1950's a famous 'White' witch named Sybil Leek lived here. She was often seen walking around the village in a long, black cloak with her pet jackdaw resting on her shoulder. Unfortunately, because her attire fitted the image of a wicked 'black' witch, the locals were upset by her presence and she decided to live in America where she continued writing many books on the occult and astrology, including "Diary of a Witch". One of the gift shops was named by her and has her picture hanging by the old Jacobean fireplace inside.
