Welcome to the heart of the New Forest National Park

The Old Chapel Holiday Cottages are in an extremely peaceful setting close to the village of Sway, with trails and village amenities within walking distance.

Our trio of beautifully styled, dog‑friendly, ground floor studio cottages are in the heart of the New Forest with direct access for walking, cycling, exploring, eating and relaxing. We offer  comfortable, peaceful surroundings, and instant access to miles of forest trails where ponies and donkeys wander freely. Each cottage provides a private, cosy retreat with king‑size beds, modern bathrooms, well‑equipped kitchens, fast WiFi, Smart TVs, and thoughtful touches that make every stay feel special.

The cottages are perfect for couples, small families, and dog owners. They feature outdoor seating, off‑road parking, and are within easy reach of Lymington, Brockenhurst, Lyndhurst, Beaulieu, and several beaches. They may be booked individually for a quiet break or combined for a relaxed group getaway for up to eight guests. Whether you’re exploring forest footpaths, discovering coastal villages, delightful beaches or simply unwinding in your own peaceful space, these cottages offer the ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and New Forest magic.

There is a great pub, the Hare and Hounds, within a few minutes walking distance, plus two other pubs, two supermarkets, a pharmacy, butchers and a deli/cafe in Sway village which is about a 15-20 minutes walk away.
