Here in the New Forest we believe that every day should be Valentine’s Day. Which is probably why we’re regularly flagged-up as one of the UK’s most romantic places to come on holiday to or visit for the weekend!
The days are beginning to get longer and you can still enjoy the benefits of log fires, cosy pubs and long winter walks on crisp mornings during February. The New Forest becomes as magical as ever in February with frosty scenes and perhaps even a dapple of snow across the heathland. So, pop on those walking boots, grab your camera and head out for a New Forest adventure!
The magical New Forest is the perfect place to indulge in a getaway. We’re only 90 minutes by train from London and under two hours by car from most of the south of England. Once here, however, you’ll feel a million miles from all the city and work stress – we have 220 square miles of forest and heath plus 40 miles of tranquil coast for you to endure.
The temperature is dialling down and Christmas preparations are ratcheting up. Which means it’s the best time of the year to discover one of the New Forest’s best-kept secrets – our fabulous spas. Whether you want to lose weight for THAT Christmas Party, relax before the Big Day, or treat yourself to a major, de-stressing pamper then we have the perfect place...
The clocks have gone back, the days are growing shorter and winter has started to beckon. So, may we proudly present one of Mother Nature’s greatest free shows? Autumn in the New Forest! As the temperature drops our magical forest is transformed from a solid green canopy to a wonderland of colour as the leaves on our trees turn scarlet, orange, pink and gold.
When it comes to picnics, where you eat is as important as what you eat which is why we’ve compiled our own guide to best places to throw down the tartan rug in the New Forest so you’ll always find the one that’s perfect for you.
Over the last 3 years villagers have been providing a special postal service to resurrect their uniquely romantic village postmark and on Sunday 10th February BBC TV’s Countryfile will be celebrating their efforts.
Roses are red, violets are blue – so start sorting a New Forest Valentine’s Day that’s perfect for two! Whether it’s a classic Champagne dinner, a Mediterranean sharing platter or the chance to play Cupid with real arrows, we’ve got an experience that’s just right for you.
If you’ve had enough of the cold days, dark nights and feeling under the weather, is there anything better than slipping on a fluffy white bathrobe and pampering your way back to wellness in the tranquillity of a spa?
Imagine a holiday surrounded the most beautiful wildlife, nature and landscapes, plus a whole list of fun things to do & places to see and where you can even bring your furry friend along to enjoy all the fun, too.
