Bickton is a hamlet nestled on the edge of the New Forest, one mile south of Fordingbridge and five miles north of Ringwood on the A338. The New Forest offers thousands of acres of natural heath and woodland, ideal for a range of outdoor pursuits, particularly walking, cycling and horse riding. Fordingbridge is a former market town enjoying an idyllic location between the heath and woodland of the New Forest and rolling chalk downlands of Cranborne Chase. The town has a high street of interesting independent shops, including an art gallery, bookshop, boutiques, and a great selection of pubs and restaurants. There are excellent local state schools in Fordingbridge which are in catchment. Also, within 3 miles are two preparatory schools – Moyles Court and Forres Sandle Manor, plus the following public schools are less than an hour away: Bryanston, Canford, Clayesmore, Goldolphin and Winchester. Salisbury, Southampton and Bournemouth are all less than half an hour away. Southampton Airport is a 30 minute drive across the Forest with twice hourly trains to London Waterloo, taking about 70 minutes. Alternatively, London is approximately a two hour drive – via the M27 & M3.

Round and about are some of the loveliest villages, including Rockbourne with the remains of a Roman villa and good, popular pub, the Rose & Thistle, and delightful Breamore with its picturesque Marsh (surviving manorial green) and Elizabethan manor house.

Fordingbridge itself has a high street of interesting independents including an art gallery, architectural salvage yard (a great resource with treasures such as Victorian fireplaces), bookshop and boutiques, and essentials such as butchers and bakers. There’s also a great selection of pubs and restaurants in the area, such as The George in Fordingbridge, The Three Lions at Stuckton and The Foresters at Frogham.
