Hale Purlieu, managed by the National Trust, is a former manorial area, made up of heath, mires and woods such as Millersford Plantation. It's a pleasant area to walk in, which will give you a sense of being cut off from the villages and settlements in this area. It's easy to get lost in your thoughts amongst the heather and the wide-open spaces that this area affords.

Hatchet Green is surrounded by characterful thatched cottages and is part of Hale, a scattered Forest community. The earliest cottages were built using cob in the late 18th century and are still traditionally thatched in the simple long straw style without the elaborately patterned block ridges common since the 1960s. The green itself is used by the local primary school and is also the local cricket pitch. It's also designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest for its rare plants and wildlife.

Hatchet Green in the village of Hale is very pretty, quintessentially English, with a number of benches on the perimeter. A great place to rest, maybe picnic, and watch the world go by!

This beautiful pathway through Homet Warren wood is lined with stunning rhodendrons - especially beautiful in the spring and summer months.

Lovely bit of open green filled with New Forest's local residents, wild ponies and cows. Perfect spot for a dog walk or picnic.

Hale Park has extensive grounds and an eye-catching Grade I listed house with Corinthian columns and a rather grand air to it. Built by Thomas Archer in the early 1700s on the site of a former Elizabethan mansion, the house and grounds remain private today. However, a footpath (the Avon Valley Path trail) cuts through the estate, down the fantastic avenue and around the side of the house. On this path, you’ll also pass by the medieval parish church which lies in the grounds.
