A MUST after Peppa Pig World or a day in the New Forest!
The local ice cream shop and tea rooms, is just a short drive away. Carlos are a firm favourite with visitors to the area, and produce a delicious ice cream unlike any other, using a secret family recipe. Sit and relax in the gardens, and watch the chickens, rabbits and other small creatures hop about.

Just 40 minutes away, this makes a fab day out with the kids. Grab some bacon on the way and once there, you can buy some crab lines. Drop your lines from the Quay and fill your buckets!
Then enjoy some time on the water courtesy of the passenger ferry for the quick hop over to Hengistbury Head. A gorgeous sandspit beach with huts and a cafe.
