Ten places are listed, and they differ a lot in size. The smaller ones sleep three or four with two bedrooms, and several of these have a hot tub, a sauna or an indoor pool for a modest nightly price. The mid-sized group sleeps six to eight, often with three bedrooms and a pool or dog-friendly rules. At the top end is one five-bedroom house for 14 guests with a hot tub and log burner, which costs far more than anything else. If you travel as a couple, the small lodges are the better fit.

A family or a group of friends travelling with a dog will find plenty of room here.
Saint Leonards suits groups and families more than couples. Most of the places here sleep five to eight, the average is a little over six, and one house takes up to 14 across five bedrooms. Swimming pools, indoor and outdoor, are the feature you see most often, which is unusual for lodges and gives the area a holiday park feel.
Prices cover a wide range. Guest ratings are very high at 9.6 out of 10. Seven in ten places accept dogs, half have a log burner, and three in ten have a hot tub or a sauna. Winter weeks cost a little more than weeks in other seasons.
Swimming pools and gardens are the most common features, each found at six of the ten places. Half have a log burner. Barbecues and high chairs appear at four places, which points to a family market. Hot tubs and saunas each appear at three places. The places with a pool, a hot tub, a sauna or a play area are usually the cheaper ones. Log burners, barbecues and high chairs go with the larger and dearer houses, so the price gap follows the size of the property more than the feature itself.
| Feature | Places | Share | Usual night |
|---|---|---|---|
| Swimming pool | 6 | 60% | £191 |
| Garden | 6 | 60% | £127 |
| Log burner / fireplace | 5 | 50% | £256 |
| BBQ | 4 | 40% | £384 |
| High chair | 4 | 40% | £384 |
| Hot tub | 3 | 30% | £127 |
| Sauna | 3 | 30% | £100 |
| Children's play area | 2 | 20% | £90 |
Lodges for three or four guests have two bedrooms and typically cost less per night than those for five or six. Once you divide by the number of guests, though, the larger group pays less each. A party of five or six pays noticeably less per person than a party of three or four. For a family or two couples sharing, the five to six bracket is the better value.
| Sleeps | Places | Bedrooms | Usual night | Per guest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Sleeps 3-4 | 3 | 2 | £127 | £32 |
| Sleeps 5-6 | 4 | 2 | £191 | £32 |
November and December are the cheapest months in the coming season. Prices then jump in January and February, when nightly rates are well above the autumn level. They ease a little in March, then rise again in April. Availability also changes. January has the fewest free dates, while March and April have the most, so you have more choice of dates in spring. For the lowest rates, aim for late autumn or the start of December, and book early for January.
| Month | Usual night | Nights still free |
|---|---|---|
| November 2026 | £171 | 33% |
| December 2026 | £180 | 32% |
| January 2027 | £282 | 23% |
| February 2027 | £282 | 53% |
| March 2027 | £257 | 55% |
| April 2027 | £276 | 57% |

Godshill has 17 and starts higher than the rest. Fordingbridge and Christchurch are smaller, with 14 and 13 places. If nothing suits your dates in Saint Leonards, these are the nearest places to check, and Ringwood is the best first look if budget matters.
Look at the places sleeping five to eight, which often have pools, gardens and high chairs. They are cheaper per person than the small lodges. Seven in ten places accept dogs, so check this when you book.
Half of them do. They are mostly the larger houses, and they usually cost more than lodges with a pool or sauna. Some of the smaller lodges combine a log burner with a sauna and an indoor pool.
Slightly. A winter week costs a little more than a week outside winter. Nightly rates rise most in January and February, while November and December stay cheaper.
