A country hotel out on the open heath at Beaulieu Road, beside Beaulieu Road station, run by New Forest Hotels together with its pub, The Drift Inn. It has four ground-floor meeting rooms around the Beaulieu Suite, which takes up to 250 theatre-style, and sells day delegate packages. A BNI core group meets here on Friday mornings.
