Goldridge

East Hampshire's South Downs offer good walking and cycling country, and this former granary sits on a working stable yard within that landscape. Goldridge is a self-contained cottage for two, built into a traditional Hampshire barn and set among other holiday lets on the same site. A single bedroom with a king-size bed and an ensuite shower are upstairs; downstairs, an open-plan living space combines kitchen and dining areas, with patio doors opening to a shared courtyard garden where you can sit outside.

The kitchen has an electric cooker and microwave for cooking, a fridge, and a washing machine. Wifi, electricity, bed linen and towels are all included. There's parking for one car on site and an enclosed patio area with garden furniture. The property is no-smoking, and one dog is welcome. It's the kind of place suited to a quiet break rather than a party—two people who want to be away from it all, whether that means walks through the surrounding woodlands, or simply time on their own.
