NATURE AT YOUR FINGERTIPS
The New Forest
Wellies on, screens away - it's time to embrace the outdoors.
- We all live such busy lives but we also need to take the time to stop, breathe and take a moment for each other. Hold hands, jump in muddy puddles, race through woodland, feel the sun on your faces, blow away those cobwebs and just be together. Nothing fancy - just the great outdoors and your favourite people.
Sea Air & Sandy Toes.
Head to the beach
- One of the amazing things about our location is that, whilst we are in the heart of the forest, we are also perfectly placed for a trip to the beach. Feel the sand between your toes at Studland, skim stones at Lepe, or walk along the spit to Hurst Castle - the world is your oyster!
IN THE HEART OF THE FOREST
Family Adventures
Giddy giggles, broadened horizons and awakened imaginations.
- Treat your little adventurers to a day out at Paultons Park and Peppa Pig World, check out the horsepower at the National Motor Museum at Beaulieu, come face to face with the giraffes at Marwell Zoo, or take a ride on the steam railway at Exbury Gardens. There's so much to see and do, and all within a stone's throw of our front door.
Take on the Golfing Greats
Toptracer Range at Paultons GC
- Pit your wits against your friends and family with our Toptracer-powered driving range at Paultons GC. The 18 heated bays boast the same ball-tracking technology used to trace the shots of the game’s best players on TV. Release your inner Rory McIlroy as you choose between the fun, interactive challenges which are bound to delight golfers, young and old.
