Approximately 4 miles west of the property is the town of New Milton that affords comprehensive leisure, shopping and educational facilities, again with a mainline rail connection. The coastline fronting Christchurch Bay, with it the pretty coastal village of Milford on Sea, is situated some 3 miles south offering safe sea swimming opportunities.
