Taxis Right Across the New Forest
Soton Cars covers the whole New Forest National Park, from Burley and its beach huts in the south to Lyndhurst and Brockenhurst in the north. The Forest generates far more taxi demand than its population would suggest, because pony trails, National Trust properties, the motor museum at Beaulieu and the Lymington branch railway all draw visitors from Southampton and further afield.

Taxis In New Forest: Common Questions
Common questions about our taxi service in New Forest, Hampshire.
Yes, the New Forest is fully inside our coverage area and we drive the riding roads every day. Some of the narrow lanes and pony routes need care and a lower speed, which is occasionally reflected in the journey time we quote you rather than in the fare.
Allow about 30 minutes from Lyndhurst or Brockenhurst, longer from Burley in the far south. The route is the A31 and the M27 to Junction 5, and we add buffer for the A31 traffic that builds up towards Southampton in the afternoon.
Yes, and that is the most common New Forest booking. The National Motor Museum and Palace House take most of a day, so we quote a wait-and-see fare and the car stays with you, which is far better than trying to find a taxi outside the Beaulieu gates.
Yes, dogs ride free when they are secure in the back and the driver is happy with them, and we cover the forest's dog-friendly car parks and Beaulieu grounds. Tell us if your dog needs a crate, a harness bar clip or a boot liner.
Yes, the 16-seat minicoach is the practical choice for families and groups visiting Beaulieu, Burley and the ferry at Yarmouth. Book it as a full day hire and we can build in three or four stops without it feeling like a marathon.
