Godshill is situated on the Western boundary of the New Forest National Park and provides excellent access to the open heathland stretching up to Hampton Ridge, where there is glorious walking, riding and cycling countryside. Godshill has a number of amenities supported by its close links to Sandy Balls Holiday Centre, where there is a leisure complex, restaurant and shop, and a village hall and public house. The Avonside town of Fordingbridge (approximately 1.5 miles) provides a further range of day-to-day health, recreational and educational facilities. An excellent local road network ensures convenient access to Bournemouth, Southampton and the Cathedral City of Salisbury, all of which offer more comprehensive facilities including mainline rail links to London (Waterloo) and international airports.
From the road a gated entrance opens to a driveway passing to the side of the house leading to ample parking and turning space at the rear. The front garden is laid to lawn with flower and shrub beds with a hedged front boundary. Adjoining the rear of the house is a gravelled and part decked courtyard which leads to the rear garden, which is predominantly lawned with raised flower and shrub beds and paved pathways leading to the land and stable yard.
