Little Bay Trees is a superbly maintained luxury caravan in a lovely peaceful sunny spot on the popular Oakdene Forest Park near Ringwood in Dorset.
The location is perfect for exploring the wonderful New Forest, the World Heritage Site of the Jurassic coastline, the beautiful Dorset countryside, and the gorgeous sandy beaches that arc from Mudeford to Bournemouth and all the way to the world famous millionaire homes of Sandbanks. Within easy reach of Southampton and the factory outlets of Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth there is plenty for shopaholics and townies to do. And if it’s little ones who want to have some fun then Peppa Pig World and Beaulieu Motor Museum are within easy reach too.
Oakdene Forest Park is a fantastic family destination right next to Hurn Forest, and Little Bay Trees is situated a 5 minute walk to the leisure centre, that includes large indoor and outdoor pools for all weathers, with splash pools for young children, a hot tub, a sauna, and a flume for the more adventurous. The centre has a fully equipped gym, bar, a restaurant that also does take-away delivery right to your door, arcade games, an onsite supermarket, an entertainment theatre, mini golf, and so much more.
When you step into Little Bay Trees you will be welcomed by a lovely relaxing space with all the features and amenities you will need for your stay. From the comfortable living area to the large master bedroom with its own en suite bathroom, Little Bay Trees has plenty of features to make you as comfortable and relaxing as possible.
The roomy living area has two large comfy sofas, one of which is a sofa-bed big enough for two adults. There is a large smart internet-connected LG TV with Netflix so everybody can watch their favourites; free WiFi available throughout, and an electric fire if you want to warm yourselves up a little.
The kitchen is fully equipped with a central island that gives plenty of workspace for you to make snacks or to create a full meal. There is a full size family fridge-freezer, oven, hob and microwave. The dining area has a very handy drop leaf table that houses four chairs, along with two further chairs, ideal for six people staying at the caravan or if you have friends visit.
The spacious master bedroom has a large double bed and plenty of room to move around in or for a travel cot. There is a vanity unit and a hairdryer should you need one, along with plenty of storage with drawers and a wardrobe, that also has a safe for you to use. The main bedroom also features an en suite shower bathroom.
The second bedroom has two twin beds and even more storage space. There are children's books in the overhead cupboards and the wardrobe houses the vacuum cleaner (should you need it). All the beds will have fresh linen ready for you and if your stay is longer than 7 nights these can be changed at the end of each week.
There is a separate toilet and washbasin for everyday use.
Outdoors there is plenty of parking space for up to 3 cars, and the decking area faces South so it gets sunshine all day and into the evening - just perfect for enjoying your sundowners after a day in the pool or at the beach. There is a BBQ for you to use whenever you fancy cooking al fresco. The BBQ is gas so there is no mess or waiting and you can get flame-grilling in an instant. There are two padlocked storage boxes for you to store your outdoor and beach gear, and the second one also houses a washing machine. There is a tap and hose at the back of the caravan for you to wash down any mucky gear or smelly dogs :-)
For sunny days at the beach or outside, LBT is well equipped with a large beach tent, 2 parasols, wind-breaks, some folding beach chairs, a portable folding table, a pair of sunloungers, picnicware, and a gas BBQ. Perfect for when you want to be at the beach, having a picnic, or lounging outside.
Little Bay Trees is pet friendly and your four-legged friend will no doubt enjoy the space and freedom to explore the open fields, Moors river, Hurn Forest right next door and the surrounding countryside and beaches with you.
We do hope that Little Bay Trees is perfect for your stay and please get in touch if you have questions.
