AS I walked along the winding woodland path – with tall trees and lush greenery either side – I could feel the tension in my shoulders releasing.
Nothing quite compares to the British countryside – and Shorefield Country Park just outside of Hampshire’s New Forest is as tranquil as it gets.
I was here for a weekend break with one of my best pals and our stay in a wooden treehouse slap bang in the middle of the forest, in the heart of nature, was the best way to unwind.
It’s unusual to come across a spot that could be ideal for almost any summer or winter getaway.
Often you’re picking between somewhere geared up for kids or for Valentine’s couples or for mates having a catch-up.
