Family Fishing Log Cabins With Hot Tubs Near the New Forest
Seven log cabins spread across 45 acres at Alderholt, on the Dorset edge of the New Forest, with pleasure fishing included on fully stocked lakes. Four cabins have hot tubs, and guests describe it as easy fishing where children catch carp.

One of the easiest first fishing holidays we list, with plenty of room around each cabin. Only seven cabins share 45 acres, the lakes are fully stocked for pleasure fishing and it is included with every stay. Guests report 50 plus fish in two days and children catching carp, with a 22lb 8oz fish noted by the venue. It suits families and beginners more than specimen hunters.
Good for
- Families with children learning to fish
- Beginners who want plenty of bites
