Brockenhurst is considered the heart of the forest, owing to its excellent railway link to London, Southampton and the South West.

The high street area is Brookley Road, which has a number of restaurants and cafes and two small supermarkets.

Well worth a visit to this quaint little forest town. Always a good place for a cafe stop and a shallow ford to cross on the way in/out of the high street. Or go past the ford on the Burley road and take the next turning on the left and left at the junction into the high street and cafes/ Tesco Express etc.
