The Manor House

The magnificent Manor House is set above the picturesque village of Breamore, overlooking the avon Valley on the edge of the New Forest just north of Fordingbridge.

The House was completed in 1583 by the Dodington family, five years prior to the Spanish Armada. It was purchased in the early 18th century by Sir Edward Hulse, Baronet, M.D.,F.R.C.P., Physician in Ordinary at the Court of Queen Anne, King George I and George II.

The House has been lived in for the past 250 years by his descendants and remains very much the family home of the Hulses.

Breamore is a largely unspoilt 17th century village with many old thatched cottages, an extensive common land a great deal of history. Life in a typical village like Breamore can be relived in the Breamore Countryside Museum which provides a fascinating insight into the days when a village was self-sufficient

The Museum

The Museum boasts one of the finest collections of steam powered farm machinery, tractors, barn machinery and historical tools.

Visitors can see full size replicas of a farm workers cottage before the advent of electricity, a blacksmiths shop, a dairy, wheelwrights shop, a brewery, a saddlers shop and cobblers shed. The village shop, school, cooperage, bakers, laundry and early garage represent recent developments.

The addition of an adventure playground to complement the Great British Maze has greatly added to the younger generations enjoyment
