With Christmas coming up AND Small Business Saturday on December 4 there’s never been a better time to show your support for local stores and enterprises.
Enjoy all that there is to offer around Christmastime here in the New Forest. We’ve festive events suitable for all the family. Take a look at some of our highlights we’ve picked out...
From a festive Afternoon Tea to a Yuletide activity day with family and friends, nowhere helps you to celebrate Christmas better than the magical New Forest. And, after so many of us were forced to forego our Christmas traditions last year, now’s the season to make up for lost time.
With our giant, living Christmas trees, crisp, frosty walks, magical roaming ponies and wild deer – not to mention our amazing hotels, guesthouses, restaurants and inns – the New Forest is the perfect place for a cool or cosy Yule.
There are 17 shopping days to Christmas. Which means you have just over two weeks to get the presents, food, decoration and everything else sorted before the Big Day! And the best place to do this is in the magical New Forest.
With lockdown restrictions easing in early December, we are looking forwards to welcoming you back to the New Forest for a spot of festive fun. We explore some of the highlights for your to enjoy this month…
Lockdown restrictions in the New Forest have been eased slightly and we are now in Tier 2. But despite the on-going restrictions there’s still plenty of great New Forest things to enjoy in the run up to the Big Day!
Gift vouchers are a brilliant Christmas present for friends, family and colleagues, and they are especially fantastic this year, as they are a great way to support local businesses, who may have had a difficult year!
Celebrate Christmas early with Passford House which has been transformed into a winter wonderland that we cannot wait to share with you. Enjoy roaring log fires, mince pies, mulled wine and many other festive treats.
This year more than ever before, it is so important to shop locally and support small businesses. Although we can’t pop to our favourite New Forest retailers at the moment, many of them are operating online, so we can still buy fantastic local products for our friends, family and colleagues!
After everything that’s happened during 2020, it seems almost more important than ever to gather with those we can and enjoy ourselves as much as possible. Our wonderful hotels, pubs, restaurants and attractions are just waiting to welcome you to a heavenly host of lunches, seasonal activities and celebrations.
The New Forest is made for this time of the year. Not just because we’re the perfect place to see real Christmas trees while you wander over our frosty acres – but because we’re blessed with so many amazing places putting on spectacular events specially for this magical season.
