    The New Forest

    Did you know the New Forest is not so new?  William the Conqueror established it in 1079 as a Royal Hunting Ground, while today 'commoners' still retain their ancient rights and animals roam freely across open heathland. On two wheels you get really close to nature, and leave no trace of your passing across this historic landscape. 

    The area has some of the best leisure cycling in the UK, suitable for novices, experts and families alike. The New Forest's signposted trails are well-maintained to guarantee easy pedalling all year round, while the more adventurous will venture to the Isle of Wight - often called "England in Miniature".

    After a short ride to the coast, it's a 30 minute ferry crossing to the Isle of Wight which has a range of cycle routes to suit all abilities and offers a stunning day's riding.

    The New Forest and Isle of Wight are very special places and our friendly staff will be on hand to offer their expert advice and help you make the most of your time in the area.

    Brockenhurst Location

    Brockenhurst is well served by mainline trains (around 100 minutes from London Waterloo or Oxford) and our hire centre is conveniently located next to Brockenhurst station.  Parking is available locally for a small charge, and the National Park has a good bus network with services stopping in the village close to our cycle hire centre.
