The New Forest Outdoor Centre

The New Forest Outdoor Centre has been a welcoming and comfortable base for outdoor activities and events since 1996.  The venue is designed for corporate hospitality and provides its own outdoor programmes as well as supporting consultancies and event management companies with their events.


Situated in the heart of Minstead Manor Estate the centre has good access to the estate's private woodland as well as the New Forest as a whole. The centre and activities have been developed to complement and be part of the local woodland environment. 


Owned by Activate Outdoors the New Forest Outdoor Centre is one of three centres on the south coast of England, all operating in special locations with access to stunning landscapes.
