Watch our lovely ponies but never touch or feed!

🐴🌲 A Message from Your Local New Forest Pony 🌲🐴

Hey there, lovely two-legged visitors! It’s me, one of the many proud New Forest ponies who call this beautiful place home. 🐎

I just wanted to trot by with a little reminder: please respect the New Forest Code when you’re out and about. It helps keep us safe, the forest healthy, and your visit peaceful and magical. 🌿✨

Here’s what we kindly ask:

🚫 Don’t feed us – we know we’re cute (just look at this mane!), but human food can make us very ill.
🚗 Drive carefully – we wander the roads too, and we don’t have airbags!
🗑️ Take your litter home – the forest isn’t a bin, and rubbish can harm wildlife.
🌼 Stick to the paths – tramping off-route can damage rare plants and nesting areas.
🐕 Keep dogs under control – a playful pup to you can be terrifying to us or to ground-nesting birds.

We’ve been here for generations, helping shape this landscape. Please help protect it so we can all enjoy it for many more.

Thanks for being kind visitors — now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some grazing to do. 🌾

If you want to keep up with your yoga or strength practise whilst you are staying with us we recommend The Natural Step - based just next to Braxton Gardens we have now enjoyed several of Jess’s yoga class and absolutely love her style.

Alternatively if you have never tried yoga before and want to do something new then why not join a class, Jess will make you feel very welcome.

With Braxton Gardens cafe just next door what could be better!
