Walk Out Along Lepe Beach New Forest And Visitor Centre

On Saturday, the weather was bright and sunny, all though there was a keen wind blowing.

We decided to head out to Lepe Beach, and take a look at the new visitor centre/cafe which has been built.

I should of taken some pics of the place, but it totally slipped my mind!

However, it is stunning, and very nice inside with a wood burner pumping out heat!

The food was good and great value. The only issue was trying to find somewhere to sit. It is now probably triple the size it was, but this has only made it more popular, especially on a sunny day!

Instead of walking East, we decided to walk West, towards the old Life Boat house and the Lighthouse.

It wasn't a long walk, but enough to blow the cobwebs away.



The old Life Boat house is now privately owned and been turned into a house. It does look as if it is only used as a holiday home.


The light house is decommissioned, but still looks stunning.


This house has a commanding view out towards the Isle of Wight.

We met a guy from Kona Bikes on a jump bike, he was messing around on his bike on the rocks. It was the first time I had taken a look at a proper jump bike, it sure did have a meaty frame and no seat post at all!

A good few hours out, and the weather was great for this time of year with perfect blue sky!
