Cob Cottage
Cob Cottage is a delightful, semi-detached, listed country cottage that has been lovingly restored yet still retains some of the character features. This charming property is peacefully positioned in the hamlet of Kilmeston with comfortable and tastefully styled furnishings, and many thoughtful personal touches throughout.
This is a popular walking area with the Wayfarers Walk and the South Downs National Park both about a mile away. Cob Cottage is conveniently located for guests wishing to explore the many attractions, walks and coastline that this wonderful part of Hamphsire offers. The pretty Georgian town of Alresford, 5 miles, has scenic riverside walks, eateries, inns, tea rooms and shops, as well as the Mid Hants Watercress Steam Railway, a wonderful nostalgic journey back in time! Alresford is also known for being the UK capital of watercress farming.
For keen cyclists and walkers, there are many places to explore including The Itchen Way, Blackwood Forest, St Catherine’s Hill, Winnall Moors Nature Reserve and also the Ox Drove cycle trail linking the South Downs National Park. There are many good golf clubs in the area, the nearest being Alresford, 4½ miles, and excellent trout or coarse fishing in the Meon Valley.
Sightseeing attractions nearby include the stately home of Hinton Ampner which is just over a mile away and is popular with all ages. Within easy reach is the historic city of Winchester, 11 miles, with its ornate cathedral, The Gurkha Museum, King Alfred monument and Winchester Science Centre and Planetarium. Other places to visit include the market towns of Alton and Petersfield, Southampton and Portsmouth, with its Spinnaker Tower, ferry trips to the Isle of Wight, shopping outlets and historic dockyard. Less than a 30-minute drive is the pebble beach at Hayling Island, 25 miles, and there is a wonderful sandy beach at West Wittering which is a 40-minute drive. Also within easy driving distance are Chichester, with Goodwood and Fontwell races, Jane Austen’s House Museum, Gilbert White’s Museum, Hambledon Vineyard, the New Forest National Park, Marwell Zoo, Paultons Park with Peppa Pig World and Queen Elizabeth Country Park.
