Explore Beaulieu, Hampshire with this interactive street and satellite map. You can “grab” the Beaulieu map and move it around to re-centre it. You can change between standard map view and satellite map view by clicking the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. You can use the zoom buttons on the lower right side of the map to zoom in or out to street-level detail.
This page also offers OS MAPS — Ordnance Survey Outdoor mapping and the OS Explorer 1:25 000 sheets — plus a labelled National Grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid reference readout. See How to Use This Map below. You will find live weather, local and world news further down the page.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Beaulieu, Hampshire, England. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture to zoom in and out.
Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).
Drag the map to pan to any area of Hampshire or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Beaulieu and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.
OS MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows OS Outdoor mapping — contours, footpaths, bridleways and access land. Explorer 1:25k shows the OS Explorer sheets themselves: the orange-covered 1:25 000 maps walkers, fell runners and mountain rescue teams use, with field boundaries, rights of way and open access land. The search box finds any British town, village or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Beaulieu.
Reading the map like a paper Explorer sheet. Click Grid to overlay the OS National Grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference such as NY 266 234 by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as an OS National Grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what mountain rescue and the coastguard work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need mobile coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your grid reference stays correct even where the map itself cannot load, which in the Lakes, the Dales and the Highlands is often exactly where you need it.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

Beaulieu commands the banks of a tidal river where the salt-heavy air of the Solent meets the ancient, wooded silence of the Hampshire interior. It lies 5.7 miles north-east of Lymington (from Lymington: bearing 43°T, OS grid SU 387 022), and is situated south-west of Hill Top village. Protected by the expansive boundaries of New Forest National Park, Beaulieu retains a character defined as much by its ecclesiastical ruins as by the modern mechanics housed within its borders. The water of the Mill Dam gathers in a quiet, reflective pool, mirroring the sky and the encroaching forest canopy with a stillness that defies the passage of the tides. Nearby, the weathered stone of Beaulieu Abbey rises from the turf, a skeletal reminder of a Cistercian past that once dictated the rhythm of this riverside life. A short distance away, the Palace House stands as a testament to the Montagu family’s long stewardship, its architecture holding the weight of centuries against the damp, verdant air. Motorised history finds a home here too, as the National Motor Museum draws visitors to admire gleaming chassis that contrast sharply with the moss-grown masonry of the medieval precinct. Beaulieu endures as a confluence of these disparate elements, where the mechanical hum of industry softens against the patient, slow-moving reach of the river.

Explore Beaulieu, Hampshire, with an embedded street and satellite map - switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 50.818328, -1.451890. Live weather conditions and 7-day forecasts are provided through Open-Meteo, while real-time local and world news feeds help keep the page current.

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any British town, village or landmark by name; offers OS Outdoor and the OS Explorer 1:25 000 sheets as base layers; overlays a labelled OS National Grid so the map can be read like a printed Explorer sheet; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as an OS National Grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require mobile coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the grid reference remains correct even where the map cannot load.
