Next stop is the waterside village of Hythe, where you can stroll the promenade and ride on the world’s oldest pier train. Take a trip across to Southampton on Hythe Ferry (20% off) and back to get up close to the liners and cruise ships and hop on the next Tour.
Then we head back toward Lyndhurst, across vast heather heaths past the remote Beaulieu Road station, where pony sales are still held five time a year.
