Also in the immediate vicinity are horse riding stables, golf course and fishing lake, along with an array of other interesting shops, including one relating to witches and covens of previous years all of which are within walking distance.
Ponies, donkeys, cattle and at certain times of the year pigs roam freely.
Burley is a perfect location for exploring the beautiful New Forest National Park and surrounding fabulous sandy beaches of The Solent.
Forest trails are minutes from the doorstep of Burley Croft cottage taking you on journeys through ancient woodlands, past ponds where ponies and cattle gather, through idyllic glades with deer and across the open heaths.
There are always plenty of activities in the New Forest and around depending on how active and adventurous do you want to be!
