Beaulieu
About This Tour
On the quiet southeastern edge of the New Forest, Beaulieu is best known for two things under one roof: Palace House, the ancestral home of the Montagu family, and the National Motor Museum's collection of historic cars and motoring memorabilia. In 2020, Condé Nast Traveler named it the fifth most beautiful village in the UK and Ireland.
It's an easy, unhurried private day — grounds to wander, a house to explore, and forest ponies grazing freely on the surrounding heathland. Guests consistently tell us it's the gentlest, most restorative stop on their itinerary.
