If you are looking for an area to suit all tastes - this is the ideal place.  Not only are we a mile from the New Forest National Park but we are equally close to the beautiful south coast with views of the Isle of Wight and west towards Bournemouth and the Purbeck Hills.
 
The New Forest, with its wild ponies and deer, extensive walks and cycle tracks, also has many picturesque villages with tearooms and pubs offering an excellent selection of food.
 
Places to visit in the local area are:

MILFORD ON SEA  -  which is 1 mile away and is a popular village with a village green and a good selection of shops and places to eat, also a sea front with car parks, cafe and shingle beach.  From the promenade you can walk half a mile to Hordle Cliff with its beach huts set in the cliff and glorious views of the Isle of Wight including the Needles
Looking to the west is Hengistbury Head and the Purbeck Hills.  Nearby Keyhaven is a popular place for sailing and also for birdwatching as there are extensive footpaths around the tidal salt marshes.
