Description
The Lyndhurst Park Hotel is in a unique position. It overlooks the
glorious New Forest yet is located at the easterly entrance to the
gateway town of the region.
Lyndhurst Park Hotel is the ideal touring base from which to
explore the beautiful New Forest and the surrounding areas
whatever time of year.
The New Forest is 90,000 acres of exceptional woodland - home to
its famous ponies, five varieties of deer and many other wild
animals and birds. Twice a year the local pigs are let loose
amongst the forest to eat acorns to stop the ponies over indulging
and becoming ill with colic. Almost two thirds of the New Forest
is open to visitors, who can either amble through the heathland
and streams, follow mapped-out walks or enjoy horse riding and
pony treks. Tucked away throughout the forest are picturesque
villages with traditional churches, pubs and quaint shops.
A memorable day out can be experienced at the famous National
Motor Museum, Beaulieu, or at Bucklers Hard, which includes the
Maritime Museum. Broadlands, the home of the late Lord Louis
Mountbatten, is a short drive away.
Southampton, with its historical shipping connections - and more
recently, excellent shopping facilities - is less than 20 minutes
drive, as is the lively coastal resort of Bournemouth. For those
more active, there's an all weather tennis court at Lyndhurst
Park, excellent sailing facilities are available at nearby
Lymington, while Paultons Park, on the way to Romsey, is a fun
place for the children. With so many attractions, it's easy to see
why a visit to the New Forest is an enchanting experience.
