Location Details
This diverse, south Hampshire village is located on the eastern shores of Southampton Water, beside the Royal Victoria Country Park. The village takes its name from the 13th century Cistercian monastery there, its well-preserved ruins still remaining today. The heart of the village retains some of its traditional charm and is proud of its waterside heritage, with ample opportunities for sailing in the nearby village of Hamble-le-Rice. Nearby, The Royal Victoria Country Park was the site of The Royal Victoria Hospital, the first purpose-built military hospital. Now, all that remains is the hospital chapel and 200 acres of wood and parkland. There are lovely walks to explore and a variety of wildlife, as well as spectacular views from the top of the 150-foot chapel tower across Southampton Water, one of the busiest shipping canals in the country. Together with its beautiful setting, tea rooms and a narrow gauge railway, the park provides visitors with a fascinating day out. Netley lies within very easy reach of Southampton and its impressive range of attractions. There is an easy drive to the New Forest, as well as Portsmouth's historic dockyard, home to the magnificent HMS Victory, and Gunwharf Quays, a retail outlet perched on the waterside. This south Hampshire waterside village is a convenient base from which to explore this fascinating area.
Hampshire offers a wealth of treasures, from rolling countryside, unspoilt beaches, glorious gardens and pretty villages to ancient forests, bustling market towns, historic ships and imposing castles.
Reviews
Amazing house with indoor pool, we had a brilliant family holiday and would recommend this home, didn't want to leave the garden and privacy was second to none, our whole family had such a lovely time, we were sad to leave ❤️
Fantastic house, lovely furniture, amazing pool. Well equipped house with plenty of room for our whole family, seven adults and two children. Well tended garden, wth plenty of room for the children to play and a view of the lake. It really is as good as the photos on the web site, if not better. Netley Abbey is next door, the beach is close by and the village has a good variety of shops. We used the swimming pool at least once a day. If Abbots Wood was my house I would be very reluctant to let it out to strangers. The only downside was that the children had to share a bed but they soon got used to it.
Abbots wood looks exactly like it does in the photos! It is the perfect spot for exploring Hampshire yet feels like a quiet retreat, with wild deer roaming in the garden and surrounded by trees. It is spacious enough that everyone could find their own tranquil spot and yet we were able to gather together as a family and enjoy both the inside and outside space. The pool was perfect too! The bedrooms are spacious and light. The kitchen is a little on the small side, but to be honest...we didn't go on holiday to spend time cooking! Our youngest member of the family simply described the house as "incredible". That sums it up perfectly.
We loved Abbots Wood, the garden was absolutely beautiful.
There were 4 generations staying and having such a large house enabled small groups within the party to get together without imposing on others. Watching adult children revert to childhood with games, swimming & quizzes, and a great grandmother watching a 3 year olds antics were all priceless memories.
Had an absolutely fantastic time and did not want to leave.
Loved Abbots Wood in general. The grounds were amazing, wildlife is beautiful and pool was spectacular. We had a lovely week, is was very relaxing.
The house was beautiful and well laid out. This is the first holiday home we have been to and cannot fault. The garden and surrounding lake were beautiful, the weather was not on our side but the pool and games entertained the children.
We had a fantastic week in Abbots Wood. The accommodation was beautiful and the swimming pool was awesome; we cannot wait to go back!!
Liked the privacy of the garden, the excellent swimming pool and it's facilities, the lake and the gated community. An excellent location for access to the surrounding area.
Abbots Wood was a spacious property in a beautiful location with an excellent indoor pool .
