Forest Walk

Nomansland is one of those quiet backwaters in the New Forest where you can really get away from the hub-bub of city life.
It remains a small Wiltshire village with an unspoilt charm about ten miles of Salisbury and remains largely unspoiled remaining outside the developers’ sights.
Within the boundaries of the New Forest National Park there are plenty of picturesque walks or delightful leafy tracks like this for horse riding and unlike other parts of the Forest has no main roads running nearby.
But that doesn’t mean it’s isolated by any means. It’s local pub, the Lamb is well known for miles around and serves great food and a tasty pint, while the privately owned French restaurant next door, Les Mirabelles is famed as arguably producing the best French cuisine in the South and the cheese board is to die for.
This time of year, the village cricket ground is used more by Forest ponies and donkeys who graze on it — although not on the playing square itself which remains protected by fencing.
There’s a church and a garage, and refreshingly not too much housing to spoil the rural charm.
One of the joys and jewels of the New Forest!
