Trafalgar Gardens

About this property

Beautifully finished holiday home set in a walled flower garden with spacious accommodation for up to eight guests.

New for 2024

Trafalgar Gardens is a beautifully presented holiday home comfortably accommodating up to eight guests. Approached along a private track, this traditional country home is surrounded by a walled garden, now used as cut flower garden. The grounds were originally part of Trafalgar Park, which was gifted to Lord Nelson following the Battle of Trafalgar, and some of his descendants lie within Standlynch Chapel, nestled next to the cottage. Just a 2 minute stroll takes you to the banks of the River Avon, with peaceful riverside walks along the gently flowing water.

Inside, there is plenty of space for the whole family, with a large country dining kitchen leading into a bright sitting room and separate cosy snug, both with wood burning stoves. Floor to ceiling sliding doors from the sitting room take you out onto the garden terrace, with a secluded spot for drinks and dining al fresco. There are four double bedrooms, one on the ground floor, two on the first floor, alongside the family bathroom, and a stunning master suite on the second floor, with en-suite facilities, dressing area and restful bedroom with window seat and glorious views across the gardens and countryside beyond.  

The Avon Valley Path, which stretches from Salisbury to Christchurch, runs right alongside the cottage, offering beautiful woodland and riverside walks. A circular footpath loop takes you to nearby Downton, the oldest village on the Avon Valley Path, home to a couple of pubs, a café, takeaway and selection of shops.  The New Forest National Park, with miles of footpaths and cycle tracks to explore amongst the free-roaming ponies, cattle and donkeys is a short drive away. Other local attractions include Breamore House, the New Forest Water Park and Blashford Lakes Nature Reserve. The city of Salisbury, with its Cathedral, shops and eateries, is just 7 miles away.
