Major attractions include Beaulieu, with the National Motor Museum and a whole lot more to explore as well as Peppa Pig World at Paulton’s Park. While the New Forest and our many local activities can provide hours and days of enjoyment, the rail station only 3 minutes from the hotel provides easy access to Southampton, Portsmouth, Bournemouth and beyond. The ferry from Lymington connects you with the Isle of Wight.
