Guests say
Bosun’s Locker in Lymington is a much-loved, quirky cottage praised for its stunning harbour views, central location, and homely atmosphere. Guests frequently return, highlighting the property’s cleanliness, comfort, and well-equipped facilities. The unique layout across three floors and thoughtful touches from the owners add to its charm. While some mention minor road noise due to the central location and lack of dedicated parking, these are outweighed by the convenience and vibrant surroundings. The cottage is ideal for couples seeking a relaxing break with easy access to local amenities, scenic walks, and the New Forest.
Multiple reviews describe the property as spotlessly clean and very well maintained, with no negative comments regarding cleanliness.
The location is repeatedly praised for its proximity to the town centre, harbour, and transport links. Some mention road noise, but this is generally accepted as a trade-off for the convenience.
Guests consistently mention the cottage is comfortable, with a cosy atmosphere and a comfortable bed. The unique layout is appreciated and adds to the charm.
The cottage is described as well-equipped, with useful amenities such as a dishwasher, washing machine, WiFi, and a well-stocked kitchen. The parking clock is also appreciated.
Several guests mention welcome packs, flowers, and biscuits as thoughtful touches, though it should be noted these are not guaranteed for every stay.

Great location, lovely warm, clean property, great communication from the owner and the lady who is the caretaker, some nice touches left by owners Lymington has a lovely high st and walks and the New Forest is beautiful.If you are going across to the Isle of Wight as a foot passenger, the Quay to Quay ferry from the harbour is much better value than Wight Link

We have stayed at Bosun’s Locker on lots of occasions since 2021, and will continue to return. Just like home from home.
