To cut the motorway part of our trip to the seaside a bit shorter we come off early and go through The New Forest
The horses and cows roam freely here, they decide the flow of traffic and the speed.
Our kiddos love getting up close to them, although a couple of years ago we were mugged of an ice cream in the village car park by one very greedy pony.
These two looked like they were waiting to cross the road...
The heather that covers the floor creates a very pretty carpet of lilac and purple
We didn't stop this year but have in the past hired bikes and trailers for the little ones to go off around the many bike trails through this part of the New Forest.
The older girls have also in the past spent most of their holiday pennies in the little witch shops that are in the village!
We still haven't visited the New Forest, must rectify that soon. x
