About Lyndhurst

Lyndhurst, often referred to as the "capital" of the New Forest, possesses a charm that draws visitors to its heart. It lies 7.9 km south-west of Totton (from Totton: bearing 229°T, OS grid SU 300 081), and is situated east of Emery Down village. The village itself is a bustling hub within the New Forest National Park, its streets lined with independent shops, traditional pubs, and tea rooms, reflecting a vibrant local economy. A prominent landmark is the imposing St Michael and All Angels Church, a Victorian Gothic Revival structure that dominates the skyline. Lyndhurst's proximity to open heathland and ancient woodlands means that wild ponies and other New Forest inhabitants are frequent sights, even within the village environs. Historically, Lyndhurst served as a royal hunting lodge and later developed as a centre for the timber trade, its fortunes tied to the surrounding forest.
