Romantic Swiss Cabin Hideaway & Hot Tub Spa Pool
I didn't like it at all because you can't even use the grill. On the website it says hot tub is included but it's not like that. You only get a message after booking if you want a hot tub you have to pay extra. My opinion is that this should be attached to the website.

New Forest cliff top apartment by the sea with distant view of the Needles
With an unobstructed view of the sea and the Needles, the apartment is well placed as a base for what Barton has to offer, and as a base for wider exploration.
