Description

Beaulieu, in the heart of the New Forest, is one of the UK’s leading Visitor Attractions.

A new exhibition, BOND IN MOTION, opens in January 2012. BOND IN MOTION is an exclusive official exhibition of 50 original James Bond vehicles. The exhibition will showcase 50 of the best loved and most iconic James Bond vehicles in celebration of the 50th year of James Bond films.

The National Motor Museum houses more than 250 vehicles, from the earliest examples of motoring through to classic cars and rare motoring oddities such as a giant orange on wheels.

‘World of Top Gear’ features actual vehicles created by presenters Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond and James May for some of their most ambitious challenges on the TV show over the years.

Palace House, home of the Montagu family since 1538, is a real family home and tales from the butler, cook and housemaids will give a fascinating insight into life in a Victorian household.

The Secret Army exhibition tells the story of the Special Operations Executive (SOE) which trained secret agents at the Beaulieu ‘Finishing School’ during WWll.

Beaulieu Abbey was founded by King John in 1204. Its absorbing Monastic Life Exhibition gives an illustration of the day-to-day life of the Cistercian Monks who lived there.

There are also a host of Rides and Drives including a high level Monorail, replica 1912 open top Veteran Bus and ‘Wheels’ – a space-age pod ride that takes you through 100 years of motoring.
