When it comes to beautiful parts of the UK, the New Forest is up there with the rest. A stunning spot, it boasts some of the most fantastic woodland areas and is not only ideal for exploring, but it is also simply beautiful to take in too. 

There are plenty of towns and villages in the New Forest and Dorset as a whole that are the ideal base not just to visit but to set up your home. 

One of these is Fordingbridge. So, what sets Fordingbridge so special? 

It is small, yet perfectly sized

Whilst Fordingbridge is known as one of the smaller towns in the New Forest, that doesn’t mean that it lacks in appeal. Thought of as the gateway to The New Forest, Fordingbridge is a small riverside town built on the River Avon. There is plenty to see and do in the town and plenty to fall in love with, even though it is relatively small. 

It’s perfectly located

Of course, there is plenty to keep you happy in the town itself, but if you need to travel further afield, Fordingbridge is perfectly located. There are not only excellent road links taking you to the other towns in the area. But there are also regular buses to Salisbury, Bournemouth, Verwood and Ferndown. 

You can also head to Salisbury to catch the train to take you even further afield. Perfect if you want to explore the wider area. 

There is so much to do

If you have some free time with your family, why not spend it together, fun and making memories. Fordingbridge has plenty to offer those of all ages, which means when the weekend comes around, you won’t be stuck for things to do. Whether it is getting active in the forest, taking in the stunning riverside areas on a walk and regular events. 

It is perfect for raising a family

The New Forest and Fordingbridge, in particular, is a beautiful place to raise a family. Not only is the town itself a great place to call your home, but there is an assortment of schools too. As well as being able to help your children, there are plenty of great work opportunities also, allowing you to secure your career and earn money. 

Want to find the ideal base to spend your life? Want to invest in a property that you can then live in for the rest of your life or prepare to sell on? Fordingbridge might be the ideal place for you to call your home. 

Fun, scenic, packed full of charm and with a whole variety of schools to choose from. You can have the very best life possible.
