New Forest cliff top apartment with distant view of the Needles

Come and stay in our fantastic refurbished apartment on the clifftop in beautiful Barton-on-Sea. We've named our apartment 'Stones Throw' as it is just a stones' throw from stunning Barton Beach which overlooks the Isle of Wight to the east and Hengistbury Head and Christchurch Bay to the west.

What's more it's on the doorstep of the New Forest National Park so you can enjoy both coast and countryside during your stay without having to travel very far at all. Within a half hour drive you can visit picturesque Lymington with its maritime history, Hurst Spit and Castle, historic Christchurch and numerous beautiful destinations in the Forest with its freely roaming ponies and abundant wildlife and well as a great selection of stunning beaches. You could even venture across the Solent on a day trip to the Isle of Wight from nearby Lymington. If you want to stay put you can enjoy a delicious lunch at the Beachcomber Cafe just over the road or spend your time swimming or just relaxing on Barton Beach.

Our apartment is ground floor and has double doors leading onto a patio and guests have use of the communal garden which looks out to sea. The main living area has a modern open plan kitchen, a dining table with four chairs, sofa bed and arm chair, plus TV. You can see the famous Needles off the Isle of Wight from the lounge window. The bedroom is a good size with a double bed and wardrobe and there's a bright and fresh modern bathroom with a double sized shower.

We do accept well behaved pets so if you want to bring them there is a £22 per pet fee (max of 2).

Your hosts Ian and Jill look forward to welcoming you to Stones Throw soon.

*Please note due to some work to repair the car park wall, the communal car park is likely to be out of use until the 8th September 2025. However you can park on many of the surrounding roads for free.

Barton visit

Beautifully clean, smelt lovely throughout, comfy bed, fresh cosy linen/ duvet. Heating very good. All kitchen ware spot on. Thank you for a lovely stay. In the write up with Vrbo ( when you click on bedroom photo) it says to bring your own bedding.. but thankfully didn’t have to.

Excellent spot to explore the area from

Excellent place to stay, had everything we needed and was spotless. We only stayed two nights, but would definitely come back for longer as there was plenty of space, facilities for just right and everything was clean. It didn't bother us, but others may find the noise from other flats, especially in the hallway, bothersome.

Great location and apartment

We only stayed for 2 nights but could not of picked a better location to stay. Apartment was clean and very well equipped and the hosts left some milk so we could have a cuppa on arrival. The cliff top is literally 20metres away with plenty of walks available overlooking the Isle of Wight . We would happily return and stay again.

We loved staying here. Everything was perfect for us & the dog. The apartment was spotlessly clean & had everything we needed. There’s so many great walks nearby & the views are amazing. We found plenty of places to eat & we could take Hunni too. Would highly recommend a stay here.

Great weekend at Stones Throw, just the perfect location for what we wanted to do during our stay in Barton. A lovely touch was the pint of milk in the fridge so we were able to have a cuppa after our journey😊😊 Looking forward to making a return visit to Stones Throw.

Long weekend

Great little apartment, in an ideal location. A short stroll to Barton beach and cliff top walks. The bed was comfortable and the kitchen had all the equipment to make basic meals if needed. There are plenty of good café, pubs and restaurants locally. Only minor niggle, was having to provide towels.

New Forest cliff top apartment

Very nice property in a lovely location close to all amenities and seafront. It was clean and cosy which made for a lovely break away. The only thing that would have improved the stay would have been a fridge freezer or freezer compartment in the fridge. Apart from that we would give 10 out of 10 for the property.

Super property in a very convenient location. It was clean and comfortable. TV remote took a bit of getting used to but just needs patience. Overall a nice property and very comfortable. BeachComber restaurant across the road is family run and serves 'to die for' breakfasts. Service is excellent.

Excellent location

Really impressed with the property. Owners answered question on parking promptly and we had no issues. More spacious than I had anticipated, really clean and had everything needed for a short stay. Great for a stay with our 2 dogs as the communal garden was right outside our door and beach as in the details was 5 min from the door. Barton-on-Sea is a little gem which we had never been to but would go again. Weather was also kind to us which helps.

Good for an introduction to the area

Ideal for what we needed. Didn't use the garden seats as grass wasn't cut. Disappointed that the restaurants were closed for 2 consecutive nights but a good base for exploring the usual local attractions. Kitchenware very basic - would take more of our own for future visits, but good overall.

Fabulous

We had a lovely stay. So near to the sea and brilliantly placed for the New Forest. If you don’t drive there is a hop on hop off bus that will take you there. Apartment is great for two I think 4 may feel cramped. I slept on the sofa bed which could really do with a better mattress is being used regularly. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and have recommended it to others
