About this property

Regency Elegance Combined With Modern Conveniences

Cloisters is a self-contained wing of a spacious Regency home with the benefits of modern conveniences. It has been newly refurbished for self-catering holiday lets. All the rooms are furnished with a pleasing mix of antiques and contemporary pieces for your comfort.
Having parked in the two allotted spaces there are stepping stones leading directly to the kitchen door which facilitates unloading cars and on-line food deliveries. The kitchen is well equipped with a range cooker, all electrical appliances and a walk in larder. Next to that is the breakfast room which seats 10 (or 12 if the two high chairs are added.) Next comes the utility area with tiled floor to a side door in the small turret where we keep the tennis rackets. This is a convenient entry for muddy boots, wet dogs and even bicycles if you prefer to store those inside rather than in the racks provided under the veranda. Next is the Utility Room with washing machine, separate dryer, additional fridge/freezer, iron and board, hoover, mops and brooms. Beside this is a butler's cupboard containing the high chairs. Moving into the carpeted area there is a downstairs w/c and two large rooms. The double aspect drawing room is perfect for gathering everyone together while those wanting to watch a different TV programme or play table football can slip next door to the games room.

Upstairs the skylight illuminates the large and airy landing where there is a desk with complimentary postcards of Cloisters and a two-seater sofa which is the best place to access Wi-Fi and Broadband. Leading from the landing are two master bedrooms, both with half-tester beds and en-suites. The pink and green en-suite has a shower over the bath, a toilet and a wash basin while the blue one has a walk-in shower and a toilet as the basin is in the bedroom (in true Edwardian fashion.) On the left corner of the landing is another w/c and a corridor leading to the atmospheric tiled Edwardian bathroom in the small turret featuring a free-standing roll-top bath, large wash basin and the original Regency glass window panes. Next to this is a twin room decorated, with children in mind, in a nautical theme with colourful bed linen and a dramatic red wall again with a wash basin in the corner. Finally the double aspect toile de jouy room also has extra wide twin beds. Both twin rooms share the large bathroom and separate w/c. The total number of full-sized beds is 8 but there are two 'day-beds' and/or two cots which can be set up in the larger rooms.

The house is set up for 10 in terms of seating, cutlery and crockery. We supply all cleaning materials including washing up liquid, hand soap, bin bags, recycling bags, paper towels, paper napkins, dish-washer tablets and washing powder. There is also a supply of tea, coffee, sugar, salt and pepper. Bed linen and towels are included except for cots. The New Forest District council supply bins for glass re-cycling too.

Wonderful summer break
We had a fantastic stay at Cloisters. The house is huge so our two families had plenty of space, and the kitchen was fully equipped. The garden is beautiful and we enjoyed playing tennis. We were also able to sit out on the veranda when it was raining. Perfect location too. Great holiday!

Brilliant Vacation Property
Our 50th wedding anniversary weekend, was made complete when we arrived at the property and found it was all the adverts cracked it up to be. We had an excellent time and the 10 of us had lots of laughs trying to play 5 a side tennis. The owner met us on arrival and was very friendly, and helpful in finding our way about the initial exploration of the property. all in all a very enjoyable experience.

Beautiful house in lovely surroundings
We had a lovely stay and really enjoyed our weekend away. Communication with Caroline throughout was super easy and she was always on hand to help. The house and gardens are beautiful and the tennis court is an added bonus. The house is well equipped and we had everything we needed. The house is also situated in a beautiful location and we enjoyed a lovely walk through the forest to the local Pig Brewery which had a lovely selection of beers and pizzas! Thanks so much for a lovely stay!

About the host

Hosted by Caroline Wallrock

Host profile image
Charlie and I are antique dealers and we have four children, one of whom helped decorate and furnish this wing of the house. We've travelled widely and lived overseas but always return to this beautiful part of the world. We live in the other wing of the house and have been delighted to get to know so many of our guests and welcomed them back time and again. Cloisters has been visited by many extended families celebrating milestones from significant birthdays and anniversaries to the more traditional Christmas and New Year festivals. It has the advantage of two master bedrooms so is also ideal for two families sharing. For group holidays we have hosted walkers and cyclists, work colleague weekends and even several groups of well-behaved wedding guests preparing for the big day, although, sadly, we cannot cope with weddings themselves as there is insufficient parking and no flat land for a marquee.

Why they chose this property

Tweed House and Cloisters have a saucy history. Tweed House was built by Captain Symonds for his new bride Lucinde Touzi in 1815. They had met in the Caribbean as the result of incredible adventures. Captain Symonds rescued Lucinde from the siege of San Domingo, brought her back to England and married her once she came of age.

Later owners, the Moens, were kidnapped on their honeymoon in Sardinia. Mrs Moens was released and the people of Boldre chipped in to raise the ransom to free Mr. Moen. A few years later the Sardinian government realized that frequent kidnappings were bad for their emerging 'tourist' trade and so reimbursed the good citizens of Boldre. Unsure exactly who had donated the money they decided to build the village school with the returned ransom and the building, now a private home, has a stone plaque in the porch recording this amazing piece of local history.
