Beaulieu Motor Museum
Beaulieu is one of the UK’s most iconic family attractions, offering a world-class experience that goes far beyond just cars. Your ticket is an “all-access pass” to the National Motor Museum, the historic Palace House, the peaceful Beaulieu Abbey, and the stunning gardens. It’s a place where history, engineering, and family fun come together in the heart of the New Forest.
The museum itself houses a massive collection ranging from record-breaking land speed machines to classic vintage cars and even famous film vehicles. Fans of the hit TV show will love the “World of Top Gear,” featuring the actual modified cars used in the show’s challenges. You can also take a ride on the Monorail for a bird’s-eye view of the entire estate or enjoy the “Little Beaulieu” adventure play area, which is perfect for keeping children entertained for hours. Whether you are a motor enthusiast or just looking for a beautiful historic estate to explore, Beaulieu is a must-visit destination for anyone staying at our Unrivalled Holiday Homes.
