Brockenhurst
One of the larger New Forest villages, surrounded by open heathland and woodland walks, there's a 'watersplash' where wild beasts of the bovine and equine varieties congregate having wandered the streets of this olde worlde town.
3
Burley
A traditional New Forest village filled full of olde worlde charm - witches and other-worldly goings-on give character to the quaint area where ponies and cattle roam freely among the thatched buildings, despite having acres of heathland surrounding the area to graze and Burley Beacon to climb.

Christchurch
A larger town in Dorset but it certainly hasn't lost any of that Dorset county charm. It has a rich maritime history, being situated centrally on the south coast and smuggling was rife. Now it's a prominent tourist hotspot with all the amenities one could need wrapped up in historic buildings and nature reserves, not forgetting the sea views and beaches.
5
Lymington
What more could you want in a market town, being situated waterside on the edge of the New Forest? Lymington is a pretty Georgian town with its open air seawater bath and marina that sailing enthusiasts flock to from all over the world. If watery pursuits are not your thing, the ancient landscapes surrounding the town are areas of outstanding natural beauty and Sites of Specific Scientific Interest. Or pop on the car ferry to the Isle of Wight.
6
Milford on Sea
On the south coast of the New Forest, Milford on Sea has views across to Christchurch with awe-inspiring cliff walks and sandy shores.

Mudeford
A sleepy little ex-fishing village at the entrance to Christchurch Harbour with sea views to die for and the freshest sea food you could hope for. The focal point is the Quay with grassy picnic area and a plthora of water sports opportunities.
8
New Milton
A bustling town in a lovely location sandwiched between New Forest wood and sea. There's lots of cultural activities year-round and sporting entertainment to boot.
9
Sway
Hopefully not named after the C17 non-reinforced concrete tower that stands 220ft tall, Sway is a tranquil village on the edge of the New Forest National Park. Come here for a community feel and the Listed status.
