Burley
Burley has everything you would expect from a traditional, New Forest village. Nestling in the lee of a hill surrounded by an area of true outstanding natural beauty. A dramatic contrast of colourful heathlands, mighty oaks, beech and lofty pines. Witches, smuggling and dragons are also part of Burley's unique character and reflected in many of the shops.
Access to Burley village is either from the A31 or A35, through the forest.
