Journey to the New Forest, Hampshire’s 145 square-mile ancient heath and woodland hunting ground where ponies, donkeys, pigs, cattle and deer still freely roam, and you will have everything you need for a perfect weekend away from the Big Smoke, says Fiona Duncan
Less than two hours from London, the New Forest offers both countryside and coast: you can nip across to charming Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight on the ferry from Lymington, or stroll on the beach at Milford-on-Sea, while the walk from Keyhaven to Lymington (or vice versa) across the marshes is a birdwatchers paradise, including spoonbills and avocets aplenty. As for the Forest itself, just yards from the car parks and you will find peace, not to mention deer, mushrooms, fine trees and pretty streams. Here are three of my favourite places in to stay and to eat in the Where to Stay and Eat in the New Forest.
