NEW FOREST NATIONAL PARK
Our daughter Eliza absolutely loves animals, especially horses, so she enjoys nothing more than an adventure in the New Forest National Park where an abundance of wildlife can be found.
Our favourite walk is at Telegraph Hill, where there are multiple walking routes to explore with great views, and plenty of horses and deer.
It's really important not to approach, touch or feed these wild animals as doing so can negatively impact them.
Telegraph Hill is a mixture of open plains filled with wild gorse bushes, that Eliza likes to pick the yellow flowers from, and woodland that she loves exploring.
After a walk at Telegraph Hill we often head to the coast, to Milford on Sea for a walk along the sea front where there a fantastic views of the Isle Of Wight.
Milford On Sea is special to us as it’s where we took Eliza to see the sea for the first time, there was also a magnificent sunset that evening.
We walk along the seafront until we get to Eliza’s favourite spot, the playground! Eliza plays on the swings - or “swish” as she calls them, and we all have an ice cream and wait for sunset.
