Endorse all the other comments about quiet, peaceful, in middle of the forest, and old but quaint loo block. I gather the loos are being demolished and rebuilt over the winter, which I think is a pity, the current design really does need refurbishing, but the quirky building and rooms are interesting. Shame they couldn't have just added a few more facilities attached to the existing block, but no doubt development is heavily controlled. We have a small dog, so always on the lookout for things one can do with the pooch in tow. Spinners Garden near Lymington was pleasant and admits dogs. Modest garden and tea room, but very pleasant £5 entry (RHS members free - yay!). Lymington market on saturday always worth a browse, nice coffees in the Stanwell House Hotel (very posh, and they're OK with doggies!) Ferry trip from Keyhaven to Hurst Castle (again dogs OK) made a pleasant BH monday (although a hint - take your own coffee here!!!).
