About this property
West Park Farm, in the very pretty, historic village of Rockbourne is part of a working beef and arable farm. You are welcome to explore here - there is a large pond, bluebell wood and occasionally you may be able to help the owner with day to day farm tasks. There is also a hard tennis court which guests can enjoy but please bring your own racquets. The Old Cart Shed is full of character, the high raftered ceilings have exposed beams and natural wood has been used wherever possible. Pretty cottage style furnishings complement the modern bathrooms and kitchen. The bedrooms are configured for maximum versatility and include stacker beds in one of the ground floor rooms, enabling it to be used as a single or twin room. From the lounge, a handsome wooden staircase leads to a gallery bedroom tucked under the eaves. The Old Cart Shed has its own private, enclosed garden and guests are welcome to enjoy the shared seating area around the pond.
Rockbourne is a village with a pub, and a 12th century church. Home to thatched cottages and by a willow-bordered stream on the edge of the New Forest National Park, Rockbourne is rich in history with Neolithic and Bronze Age barrows, Iron Age fort and impressive Roman villa. Fordingbridge town is a short journey away, offering a wealth of shops and places to drink as well as its own museum to keep you occupied.

We had a fantastic time and it was perfect for 6 of our family staying for the weekend. We loved being on the farm and then cosy in our little house. Thank you for a great stay, we would love to return.

The farm itself was lovely, with plenty of space to explore and walk the dog. Our children enjoyed making a fuss of the cows and gave them names. There were no towels when we arrived, but this was quickly rectified and provided by the owners. There was a small leak from the tank in the bathroom, but nothing alarming and it did not affect our stay. It was the ideal base for exploring The New Forest.

Comfortable to. At the heart of the farm made our stay very rewarding for the younger members, especially being allowed to help with feeding the cows. (Never known teenagers to be up and at them so early!) Thank you very much for a short but very rewarding time.
