Top Things to do in New Forest National Park Hampshire
The 10 Best Classes & Workshops in New Forest National Park Hampshire, England
If you need a word to perfectly describe New Forest, “welcoming” would be it. The lowland (i.e. no mountains) park is filled with scenic views and wide trails that beg to be explored as they wind through centuries-old woodlands. Visit Bolderwood, a protected forest and deer sanctuary that was once the hunting grounds of the Norman kings. Fish at Moors Valley before heading skyward for a treetops walk. Prefer the country-house life? Head to Beaulieu, where you can get lost in the Victorian-era at the Palace House before following in the footsteps of medieval monks at the property’s abbey.

My 3 teenage children, my wife and I enjoyed a 1 hour hack through the beautiful forestland ably guided by Cassidy and Asher. The horses were all in amazing condition which added to the overall experience. Our experience from the time we arrived at Bagnum to the time we left was so enjoyable. The staff were very attentive and ensured all of the family knew exactly what we needed to do despite us all having some riding experience. The hack itself was very enjoyable with a mix of walking and trotting through tracks and on road. We felt totally reassured by our two guides throughout. Thank you Bagnum Equestrian Centre for such a great time. We look forward to seeing you again soon.

My mother and I had an absolutely wonderful day out at Alan and Carol's lovely B&B, spending a half day learning the ins and outs of Artisan French Bread making etiquette. As a baking beginner myself, and also for my Mum who has a lot more experience, the course was pitched at a great level - Alan has time for all your questions and the techniques and recipes are accessible and fun. We made delicious croissants, french baguette and our own sourdough pizza bases (which we happily demolished for lunch :)) - all in a relaxed and instructive atmosphere. Would highly recommend to all!
