Exbury’s beautiful woodland garden covers 200 acres and is a jewel in the heart of the New Forest National Park. Created by Lionel de Rothschild in 1919, Exbury’s spectacular gardens offer natural beauty and horticultural variety on the edge of the Beaulieu River, which can be explored either on foot, by chauffeur-driven buggy, or on the steam railway. Children will love the play area and looking out for wildlife, and dogs are welcome in the gardens on a lead. With excellent car parking, disabled access and amenities on site, it is the perfect destination for a wonderful day out!
