The New Forest
The East End Arms is situated in a beautiful part of the New Forest National Park – home to ponies, donkeys, cows and pigs (at certain times of the year) who roam freely. It is a very unique and special place. There are plenty of places to visit, and many things to do, including visiting museums, castles and gardens.
Forest
