We are very fortunate to have enjoyed many visits to the New Forest, Hampshire, and plan to go again very soon. Whenever we go I so enjoy being able to take your time, take in the views and perhaps meander a little (I'm good at that! LOL!) come on Jan, I hear Eddie say. I was reminiscing about previous September days spent there and thought I'd do a post about it, well why not! So these are old photographs (the first three courtesy of Mr Google) but always nice to see, well I think so!
You often see thatched cottages like these
The New Forest Heathland is lovely
and walking through the very straight trees so enjoyable
In these rather strange days of Covid 19
I think it's even more important to take time out and enjoy a little nature.
It's something we hope to do again soon.
Thanks for reading
All the best Jan

what a beautiful place, you're right, in these uncertain times we must make the most of what we have closer to home and appreciate the beauty of our island.
...I would LOVE to see thatched cottages like these!!!
I enjoyed the post and the photos. How I could love to walk there~!
Love that roof! How on Earth do they do that??
It looks like a lovely place to visit. I enjoyed seeing all the photos. Have a happy Sunday :)
This is truly a beautiful place. The roof top is so much fun.
Beautiful scenery. And those ponies are adorable. X

I like the thatched cottages.
Just beautiful. I hope you can get back there again soon.
Nature and ambling are big in my world too.
Thanks for sharing those wonderful photos, the thatched cottages make me homesick for England. Valerie
It is beautiful to see some snippets of Hampshire. Especially true since I like in New Hampshire. That makes it really interesting.
That cottage is awesome and looks like something out of Midsomer Murders
I just love those thatched roofs which are not seen here.
It's a pretty area.
Charming cottages and that forest looks marvelous!
Somewhere I've never been, it looks beautiful.
Hello,
I just love the cottage, such a pretty scene. The cattle are cute too. The forest view is lovely too, I am a tree hugger. Take care, enjoy your new week!
ooooh i would love to meander there. i would enjoy it all but those cottages, what beautiful little treasures!!
I love the house... Very nice pictures ... Happy week and September...
Looks lovely!
Thanks for visiting!
What a beautiful cottage!
I love our drives around, but we haven't done so recently. We just are happier hunkering down.
Looks so peaceful and lovely! Hugs, RO
It is a favourite of mine. I like the Autumn with the changing colours and glorious fungi. I enjoyed your photos of a very special area.
It is a place that we have not visited for many years but as a lovely reminder of how much we enjoyed our visits there, stunning.
The thatched cottages are beautiful.
Beautiful.
The thatched cottage is so pretty.
Love that thatched cottage. What a neat place to go to get away from all of the problems around us these days.... Getting out in nature --and enjoying our flowers is MY way of coping with the horrible things going on in our country....
Hugs,
Betsy
Peaceful scenes :)
Looks like a lovely spot!
Me ha encantado la cabaña de la primera foto. Nunca habÃa visto una similar a esta. la arquitectura cambia según la climatologÃa de la zona.
Espero que tengas una Feliz semana.
What lovely photographs, we had a very happy week in the New Forrest a few years ago. Take care and have a very happy week, Sue x
There are so many beautiful places in the UK - thanks for sharing the New Forest with us!
So beautiful! I am sure you are wise to do this during these strange times. Nature is a wonderful healer! Keep safe and be well!
marvelous place to spend serene times dear Jan
each image speaks for the enchanting beauty indeed
how nice you can enjoy this through old captures :)
nature is best friend :)
blessings!
What a wonderful post. I simply adore the New Forest and loved every minute we've spent there. The landscapes, roaming animals and cottages are delightful. Lucky you being that close. Loved these pictures, you have me pining for the place.xxx
The house is beautiful❤
Beautiful photos. :)
It looks idyllic, Jan. The charming cottage seems from a fairy story or days long ago -- and I love the cows. It sounds like a wonderful spot filled with many memories.
Muy bonito para disfrutar. Saludos.
I sure could use a little time there....
Beautiful trip and I love your new background, too (hope it´s new or I was just so concentrated on reading I didn´t notice?)...
The New Forest has a number of speciality birds too Jan. Hope you saw the Dartford Warblers and a Hobby or two.
