Short breaks in the New Forest With New Forest Holiday Lets

As the summer season gets underway and our booking calendar fills up, we look to September and October when the busy season is over and the days start getting a little shorter. An Indian summer, in recent years, has been the holidaymaker’s paradise in the New Forest, with warm beach days a plenty and balmy BBQ evenings all round. Once the school holidays are over and the tourist hotspots quieten down, our holiday properties in and around the New Forest area are open to short breaks for a midweek or weekend booking. Aside from the more obvious activities of walking and cycling across the Forest, many attractions are open year-round for people to explore during their cottage short break in the New Forest. Key hotspots include the Motor Museum in the beautiful village of Beaulieu, Hurst Castle, and its long … Continue reading

All the perks of living like a local Self catering holidays give you the benefits of home from home living with none of the hassle Whether you choose a small cottage or a large sprawling house, self catering holidays offer great flexibility.

Hotels in the New Forest are splendid in some lovely “on forest” locations.

Cycling in The New Forest

Cycling is fun for people of all ages and fitness. Being in the countryside and enjoying views with friends and family is a great way to stay fit and appreciate nature’s beauty. The New Forest provides great cycling opportunities on quiet roads and off-road trails, and everyone can find the right route for them, whether a gentle ride or fitness training. Below is a couple in the heart of the forest. Road ride from Boltons Bench, Lyndhurst, to Beaulieu and back (16½ miles) Boltons Bench car park is a good size but is popular, so don’t get there late on a sunny day! From the car park, take the road towards Beaulieu (B3056). There’s a slight climb after 1 mile, but your reward is the view to the left towards Matley Heath. Continue on the B3056, over the railway line … Continue reading

New Forest Round Up

The wildlife, ponies, cattle, donkeys and pigs are a huge part of life here in the New Forest, and these beautiful creatures attract visitors from all over the world to see them out in the open Forest and the towns and villages. The ponies are semi-wild but are actually owned by the commoners (people who have “rights of common of pasture” over the Forest lands) who pay an annual grazing fee known as the ‘marking fee’. As all the animals depastured on the Forest are owned by commoners, it is their responsibility to ensure that their ponies are in good health. However, five ‘agisters’ are employed by the Verderers to watch over the forest stock and ensure that their owners meet the requirements of the Verderers regarding stock welfare. They attend road accidents and other incidents involving Commoners’ animals. Each … Continue reading
