Its location is ideal for exploring the New Forest and surrounding areas. Foxes Earth has everything you need and is tastefully decorated and finished to a very high standard. The owners are next door and are very welcoming and check with you that everything is ok. We have no problems recommending Foxes Earth and wouldn't hesitate about staying there again.
