Tiptoe is a small hamlet on the northern fringe of the New Forest in Hampshire, England, sitting not far from the Solent coast and towns such as Lymington and New Milton. It feels very much part of the forested and heathland landscape, with lanes, cottage clusters and open commons that attract walkers, riders and wildlife enthusiasts.

Socially and economically it is quiet and largely residential, a mix of long‑standing rural families and people who commute to nearby towns, while tourism, forestry and small‑scale agriculture shape local life. The hamlet retains a strong countryside character and the informal traditions of the New Forest - commoning, seasonal grazing and an emphasis on outdoor activity - still influence daily rhythms.
