Accommodation

Our accommodation for the weekend is the stunning YHA New Forest, set within beautiful grounds on the edges of the Hampshire village of Burley.

Its peaceful position is close to the thatched cottages, tea rooms and cider farms which typify the area, and the coast is just a short journey away, making this a perfect spot for a family getaway.

Our accommodation for the trip will be in 4-bed and 6-bed rooms, exclusive to our group or within 2-3 bell tents that we have reserved for our group. Both options give guests access to the main building, common areas and bathrooms.

NOTE: There is car parking at this accommodation, but if you can car share with someone please do. We love our planet!

Food

Our meals for the weekend will be prepared on-site at our accommodation, for breakfast and dinner. Saturday lunch is not included, as we will be out most of the day, so please bring something to eat for Saturday lunch, such as a packed lunch.
