Map of the UK

Martin is a small, quiet village tucked into the western edge of the New Forest in Hampshire, England. The surrounding landscape of mixed heathland, ancient woodland and pasture reflects the long history of the area as a royal forest: commoning rights, grazing ponies and old hedgerows still shape daily life and the local scenery.

There’s little heavy industry here; the local economy leans on agriculture, estate land and tourism, with walkers and cyclists passing through to explore the park and nearby coast. Its close-knit rural community and traditional cottages give it a timeless feel, while towns such as Southampton and Lymington lie within easy reach for services and transport.
