Taking your seat in a gorgeous location, feeling well looked-after by welcoming, friendly staff, and being able to pick your favourites from a wide-ranging menu of breakfast goodies…What better way to start your morning before setting out to explore the delights of Lymington and the glorious New Forest!
Whether you’ll be spending the day in this thriving Georgian market town, admiring the boats in the marina, or venturing out to sea to sail yourself, there are lots of fantastic places to enjoy breakfast near Lymington to ensure that you’re refreshed, inspired and set up to really make the most of your day.
Forest Lodge near Lyndhurst is a contemporary townhouse hotel and a wonderful place for that all-important first meal of the day. 1820 is its sophisticated award-winning brasserie and offers a range of options, starting with fresh and tempting dishes you can serve yourself – think croissants and pastries, yoghurts, fruits and cereals. A more demanding day of adventuring might require a hearty bowl of porridge, the New Forest Breakfast (the meat and meat-free options are equally tasty), or fresh brioche with local eggs and bacon.
Nearby, you’ll find Bartley Lodge, the 18th century Grade II listed hotel nestling in acres of stunning landscaped grounds. Its country house kitchen offers a wide selection of freshly prepared pastries, porridge, and other lighter and wholesome fare, as well as the classic New Forest Breakfast plates to satisfy those looking for a more substantial start to the day.
Burley Manor is another delectable choice, and this magnificent 800-year-old estate set within breathtaking surroundings is a very special place indeed to enjoy your morning egg and soldiers. As well as lots to choose from at their Kitchen Table, Burley Manor also offers several signature dishes, including the famous Burley Breakfast of bacon, pork sausage and morcilla, plus its Burley Vegetarian cousin; both include juicy roasted tomatoes, field mushrooms, The Manor’s potato cake and local free-range eggs, all prepared exactly how you like them.
If you’re lucky enough to be staying at the stunning Beaulieu Inn, The Drift is the relaxed and welcoming stylish country pub next door that is a favourite with families and their four-legged friends. Light options are available from their Kitchen Table, and their breakfast special is always on offer too – bear in mind that like all New Forest Collection restaurants, The Drift prides itself on making the most of local and seasonal produce, so this is sure to be a real treat. If you fancy the full works with baked beans and hash browns, The Drift Full English or Full Veggie is the perfect choice, and if you’re off for a day’s walk exploring the coast around Lymington with the kids, The Mini Rambler’s Breakfast, with pancakes or Mini English, is sure to put a smile on their little faces.
Hungry for vegan meals, child-sized portions, gluten-free options and dishes that fulfil certain dietary requirements whilst still being scrumptious? Choose any New Forest Collection venue for breakfast and you’ll ensure that everyone in your party is delighted with their meal.
