Whether you are looking to escape the stresses of everyday life, spend some quality time with the family or enjoy a romantic weekend away, then the New Forest is the perfect place for a half term holiday or Easter break..
The New Forest is 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, granted that status in the spring of 2005, which is a mixture of heath land, ancient woodland and grazing animals.
You can follow 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 a mini break. There’s a great choice of activities from cycling along the miles of gravel tracks in the woods, to horse riding across miles and miles of open heath land. With 26 miles of coastline you can try your hand at sailing, 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 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 accommodation available in the New Forest including hotels, bed and breakfast establishments, cottages, self catering accommodation, camp sites, caravan parks and pubs. Maybe you would like to spend Easter languishing in a New Forest spa or maybe you are looking for somewhere to spend half term with the children?
There are lots to do and see for both adults and children in the New Forest ranging from theme parks such as Paultons Park and Adventure Wonderland, not forgetting of course Beaulieu Motor Museum and Palace House.
