Testimonials

A glorious and joyful place to be. Birdsong, glimpses of the great spotted woodpeckers and sightings of the deer outside the fence. Just marvellous
— Julia Bose, West Sussex
A tranquil retreat in the heart of the Forest from where world-weary people leave refreshed and renewed and longing to return.
— Ruth & Marge, Blendworth
Can there be a better place from which to explore the Forest on horseback than from Burley Rails? Miles of tracks and bridleways quite literally on the doorstep and, what’s more, no traffic to disturb the tranquillity – sheer bliss!
— Jeremy Hobson, France
Thank you for making my day out with horse and hounds so perfect. How many places can there where the hunt meets outside your bedroom window and it’s just a matter of tacking up and riding out following hounds across the Forest? All that and wonderful hospitality too…!
— Valerie Hardy
Thank you for our recent stay at Burley Rails. The secluded location was more than we could have hoped for as an escape from our hectic city lives. The New Forest seems to surround the lodge like a comfortable overcoat and we loved being able to walk out of the door and straight into the surrounding woodland. We’ll be back soon!
— Stuart & Sue Currie, Plymouth
We so enjoyed the peace of the New Forest, walking and cycling through the woodlands all around your house. The “bellows” of amorous deer echoing through the forest will stay with us for a long time. The food and choice of local beers in the White Buck Inn took us back years.
We would definitely like to return to Burley Rails Cottage, when you can show us more of the sights and sounds.
— Brian & Dinkie Gellard, Uzes, France
