 Whether you are looking to escape the stresses of everyday life, spend some quality time with your loved one, then the New Forest is the perfect place to spend Valentines. It's the place where nature still has the upper hand and where the mixture of tarmac and turf draws one naturally into Britain’s newest National Park, which is a unique mixture of heath land, ancient woodland and grazing animals such as poniesm, deer and cattle.. You can walk the Knightwood Oak Trail open throughout the year, and follow a quarter-mile path through ancient forest is just one of the reasons why this makes the New Forest a fabulous choice for Valentines Day. There’s a great choice of activities from cycling along the miles of gravel tracks in the woods (lots of places for cycle hire), to horse riding across miles and miles of open heath land or through forest enclosures. With 26 miles of coastline you can try your hand at sailing from Lymington, jet ski-ing or for the more sedate a boat trip out to sea the famous Needles on the coastline of the Isle of Wight. If you are looking for something more than just a ‘weekend away’ then the New Forest offers a variety of special interest breaks from water colours to fishing and golf. There’s a wealth of |New Forest accommodation available including hotels, bed and breakfasts , cottages, self catering accommodation, camp sites, caravan parks and pubs. Maybe you would like to spend Valentines languishing in a New Forest spa followed by an initimate dinner for two in one of the area's many fine restaurants? Cosy up in a tea shop such as the one in Minstead or sink into a comfy sofa at The Crown Hotel in Lyndhurst lapping up the warmth from the open fire. In our opnion it's the romantic place in England and perfect for a Valentines break.. |
