Situated north of the New Forest in Lover near Redlynch, this desirable, rural, thatched barn conversion with high vaulted ceilings is an absolute must for a family or couples holiday. Boasting a superb outdoor swimming pool, zip wire and lake, Whiteshoot Farm, set in six acres with far reaching views, is well equipped, offering spacious luxury living accommodation in four bedrooms for a maximum of six people. The buildings which are full of character form the remains of a small New Forest farm dating back to 1829, with this outstanding, award winning transformation taking place within the last 10 years. The welcoming housekeeper lives within the grounds of Whiteshoot Farm.
Whiteshoot Farm is within a stone’s throw of the New Forest National Park, a fantastic place to visit any time of the year for beautiful scenery and wildlife, all seen whilst walking, cycling, driving or horse riding. The market towns of Fordingbridge and Ringwood are close by with the blue flag Bournemouth beach 23 miles away. The city of Salisbury with its famous cathedral is just a short drive way with an abundance of shops and streets filled with history. Please note the pool is only available and heated from the 22 May – 18 September 2026 and 21 May – 17 September 2027 inclusive, has a maximum depth of 6ft and is 28ft long and is heated to approximately 25 degrees centigrade during this period. Regrettably, Whiteshoot Farm is not available for functions or parties.
To the rear of the house the large gently sloping lawned acreage encompasses the patio with hammock and garden furniture around the swimming pool with a second patio, garden furniture, is adjacent to the pool. The owner provides a rowing boat with life jackets for use on the 3 metre deep lake within the grounds of the property. Older children and adults alike can enjoy the low zip wire from the tree house. Towards the rear of the acreage lies the small Vineyard and truffle orchard – search for truffles late summer/autumn! Please note: Children must be supervised at all times at this property. Should you wish to embark on an organised truffle hunt in the orchard, between the months of September and January, this can be carried out at an additional cost subject to availability, please contact us for further details.
The village of Redlynch is very close to neighbouring villages – Woodlands and Lover. Being in the north of the New Forest, Redlynch is only 6 miles from the cathedral city of Salisbury, and a mere 20-minute drive to the family theme park Paultons Park – home of Peppa Pig World. Surrounded by beautiful forest and countryside there are endless walks and cycle trails. Your closest convenience store and post office is a ten-minute walk into Woodfalls. More shops and supermarkets can be found in Salisbury and Fordingbridge – 7 miles away. You won’t have to get in the car for good food. For a small village, visitors are well looked after with options for takeaways and a good Indian restaurant. There is also a pub within walking distance. The Kings Head in Redlynch has a deservedly excellent reputation for lovely home-cooked dishes with well-kept real ales and a great wine selection. Inside there’s an inglenook log burner roaring away in the winter months. In the summer, take a table outside in the pretty beer garden.
