Dress code
Go on.... wear that item you've never had the courage to wear!
Think smart, colourful and a little bit eccentric.
Fancy hats are encouraged, when else do you get to wear them?!
Shoes
Depending on the weather, you may be walking on grass and gravel, so block heels would be more sensible than stilettos!
Coats
We would love to spend as much time as possible outside (weather permitting) so please make sure you bring your best coat.
Driving to Pylewell & Parking
The drive through the forest to Pylewell is really lovely. We would suggest the most scenic route is the Beaulieu rd (B3055) turning onto Hatchet Lane (B3054).
Please check your sat nav to avoid traffic, as the forest can get quite busy in the holidays.
There will be plenty of parking when you arrive.
Please come all the way down the drive and turn right towards the main house, you will be shown where to go.
If you would like to get a taxi you can leave your car at Pylewell and pick it up the following morning.
Please pre-book taxis as there are no ubers in this area! These are some local taxi companies:

Accommodation
There are plenty of airbnbs, pubs with rooms and hotels in the area. Pylewell is only a 2 minute drive from Lymington.
In particular there are some really sweet cottages if you prefer to experience the real forest, with the forest ponies walking past your door; or you could try staying in Lymington, which is a town with lots of character.
Gifts
We understand how much effort and cost it can be to attend a wedding; so we would be really grateful to receive cards instead of gifts- brownie points if they're homemade!
It would be lovely if you donated to a charity close to your heart in place of a gift.
Pylewell Park and the Surrounding area
Pylewell Park is beautiful and is situated right next to the sea in the New Forest national park. The closest town is Lymington which is only a 2 minute drive away.
There is a lot to do in the area, so we would really suggest you come for longer and see the lovely New Forest. You could visit Salisbury Cathedral, drive down to the Jurassic coast, or simply enjoy all the beaches and walking in the Forest. There really is so much to do, we hope you enjoy where we live.
RSVP
Please reply for each member of your party, and let us know any food allergies, intolerances or requirements.
We hope you can make it!
