Beaulieu: Guide


Beaulieu is a village in the New Forest.

Understand


Beaulieu village has been owned by the Montagu family since the dissolution of Beaulieu Abbey, and they have followed a policy of developing the tourist potential of the village, resulting in a rather bizarre mixture of attractions. Perhaps more despite than because of this, the village itself is very attractive, clustering around the mill pond and the tidal headwaters of the Beaulieu River. Keep an eye open for the ponies and donkeys which can often be found congregating in the village's main street.
