woodland, ideal for a range of outdoor pursuits, particularly
walking, cycling and horse riding. Fordingbridge is a former market
town enjoying an idyllic location between the heath and woodland of
the New Forest and rolling chalk downlands of Cranborne Chase. The
town has a high street of interesting independent shops, including
an art gallery, bookshop, boutiques, and a great selection of pubs
and restaurants. There are excellent local state schools in
Fordingbridge which are in catchment. Also, within 3 miles are two
preparatory schools - Moyles Court and Forres Sandle Manor, plus
the following public schools are less than an hour away: Bryanston,
Canford, Clayesmore, Goldolphin and Winchester. Salisbury,
Southampton and Bournemouth are all less than half an hour away.
Southampton Airport is a 30 minute drive across the Forest with
twice hourly trains to London Waterloo, taking about 70 minutes.
