Book your stay on Oakdene Forest Park

Oakdene Forest Park sits in 55 acres of mature woodland in St Leonards, on the edge of the New Forest. It backs straight onto Hurn Forest, so woodland walks and cycle trails start right outside your door.

There's plenty to enjoy without leaving the park. The indoor pool has an exciting flume, with a sauna and steam room alongside for grown-ups to unwind. In summer, the heated outdoor pool with water jets is a favourite with families. There's also a fully equipped gym, adventure golf, an arcade, an adventure play area and a large playing field. In the evenings, the bar and restaurant has family entertainment, and there's a café and takeaway for easy meals. An on-site supermarket and launderette cover the essentials. Best of all, when you book with Cotswold Retreats your park passes are included, so you can make the most of everything Oakdene has to offer.

Beyond the park, the historic market town of Ringwood is just a few miles away, with independent shops, traditional pubs and its Wednesday market. Moors Valley Country Park and Avon Heath are close by for lakeside trails, tree-top adventures and family days out. Bournemouth's golden beaches are under 10 miles away. Pretty New Forest villages such as Burley and Lyndhurst are also within easy reach, where ponies and donkeys still roam freely. With forest, coast and countryside all close at hand, it's an ideal base for families, walkers and anyone who loves the outdoors.
