Beaulieu is the ancestral home of the Montagu family who have lived
here on the north side of the village for almost 500 years. The
present Lord Montagu is the famous founder of the National Motor
Museum, which is located in the Palace grounds. The museum holds over
300 vehicles including land speed record breakers "Bluebird"
and the "Golden Arrow". Beaulieu
Abbey, founded in 1204
also stands in the grounds. Much of the Abbey was destroyed in the
16th Century by Henry VIII. However some buildings remain and are
worth a visit. The Palace and Gardens are also open to the public.
The village is dominated by a large tidal pond known as the Monks Mill
Dam.
The tide mill is disused, but there are plans to renovate it.
At the rear of the Mill House next door, there is an old octagonal dairy
overlooking the head of the river. This was requisitioned and
converted into a pill box during WW2 and is now a listed building.
A couple of miles east of the village is Exbury Gardens and Steam
Railway, famous for its flowering shrubs.
Three miles south of Beaulieu is Bucklers Hard on the Beaulieu River.
Here, warships were built for almost a century including Admiral
Nelson's favourite HMS Agamemnon.
The Countryside Education Trust (CET) has two centres in
Beaulieu;
the New Forest Study Centre for day visits to the woodland and the Out
of Town Centre based on Home Farm, Beaulieu for both residential and day
visits to the farm and garden. The Trust runs a community events program
with a great range of countryside activities for all ages.
