Situated in the centre of the beautiful New Forest, Beaulieu is a fantastic and fascinating day out for every member of the family – regardless of their age, gender or interests!

Attractions are aplenty at Beaulieu. There’s the National Motor Museum with hundreds of cars to view and learn about, the stunning Palace House, which has been home to the Montagu family for nearly 500 years and a Cistercian Monk abbey which is in walking distance of the House, featuring the amazingly relaxing area of Herb Gardens. Furthermore, there are several other beautiful gardens to walk around and take in, including a Victorian’s Garden, Wilderness Garden the Ornamental Kitchen Garden (on the exact same place as the original Ornamental Kitchen Garden of Palace House way back in 1872). With each garden having their own little piece of beauty, they are all unique and fascinating to take in.

An extremely popular part of Beaulieu, the National Motor Museum is a must visit area for all petrol heads. Featuring over 250 motor vehicles, each one is taken from a different era and memorable point in time. From the first family cars ever made, to some of the most unforgettable Formula One racing cars ever let out on the track, each vehicle is displayed on inspiring metal tracks and structures, allowing for views of the cars you would not normally see. Not only are there family cars and racing cars, but currently on display are a selection of World Land Speed Record motor vehicles and the most popular display, the James Bond Experience. Feature a variety of different cars, boats and other motor fuelled vehicles from the world famous James Bond films, it is a must see exhibit for any car, gadget or James Bond enthusiast.

For those visitors wishing to take a break, think about taking a seat on an exact replica of a 1912 London Bus that drives around the estate, the monorail that circles the entire site or for the younger visitors to Beaulieu, they can try out the fun and exciting Mini Motor Play Trail.

Of course, if you’re looking to include a visit to Beaulieu during your stay in Poole, then you will be looking for somewhere comfy, close by and full of character to rest your head at night and prepare your self for your interesting day ahead. There are hundreds of accommodations in and around Poole, from hotels to Bed and Breakfasts and camping sites to motor home parks. However, the one accommodation that is always recommended time after time is Rockley Park. Situated only moments away from Poole’s many amenities and within easy driving distance of Beaulieu, it is the ideal place to stay when visiting Poole.

Open daily from 10:00am, Beaulieu is just out of the main area of Poole, but worth the short drive to if you’re staying nearby. It’s a full day out, so pack a picnic, take the family and have wonderful day out in the fun packed day that is Beaulieu.
