Tim's Guidebook
Walks
good place for a walk and views and some nice country pubs nearby though scary if kids are disobedient near cliff edges. Have cash for car park if you are not a National Trust member. Leave early (be at sandbanks before 11am) to get on chain ferry or go other route

Istana Hurst
Walks and sightseeing and ferry.
New forest for walks and picnics. This area with neighbouring Blackwater tall trees car park are good options. Burley, Lymington or other pretty towns in New Forest would be worth a visit too.
