New Forest Escapes BCorp Certified

✨ What a night to remember! ✨ Last night, we had the honour of attending the annual New Forest Business Awards New Forest Business Partnership and what a shock it was! We only went and won the ultimate accolade of Business of the Year sponsored by Chewton Glen Hotel & Spa - Just WOW… we were beyond stunned (and a little speechless!). 🏆✨ But the surprises didn’t stop there, we were also finalists in the New Forest National Park Authority Sustainability Business of the Year category, and also WON! 🌿 💚 This incredible recognition means the world to us. It’s a testament to the hard work, passion, and love we pour into what we do every day. From creating unforgettable escapes in the beautiful New Forest to championing greener, sustainable practices—we couldn’t do it without our amazing team, our wonderful guests, and the support of our incredible community. A wonderful evening, celebrating all the superb New Forest businesses. Well done to everyone! 🎉 #NewForestBusinessAwards #BusinessOfTheYear #SustainabilityMatters #ThankYou #DreamTeam #NewForestEscapes

Our Owner Jane was excited to meet various finalists at Lainston House last night for the drinks reception of Hampshire Business of the Year awards 2024. It's a real honour to be shortlisted for the Small Business of the Year accreditation, and great to mingle and meet some fascinating people including Stephen Emerson and David Higginbottom (MCCT). Good Luck everyone! #HBA2024 #HampshireBusinessAwards #SmallBusiness #Finalist #GoodLuck

Jane, our Owner has been in to meet the judges so all we can do is keep our fingers crossed now and wait with bated breath until the winner is announced! 🤞🏻 #newforestescapes #sustainablebusiness #shortlisted #newforestbrillianceinbusinessawards #fingerscrossed #smallbusiness #sustainability #luxuryholidaycottages #chuffed #finalists

Supporting charities is a key priority for us at NFE... 💫 For the month of October we are collecting new/used/gently worn bras at our office in Lymington. Smalls for All® is a fantastic charity collecting underwear for those in need across Africa and the UK. Its a sad fact that women that don’t where bras - especially in under developed countries - are more likely to get sexually assaulted. We want to help! So ladies - if you are local pop down to see us during October or post your smalls to us for this collection to 23 New street, Lymington, SO41 9BH! Thank you! 🩷 #newforestescapes #smallsforall #bracollection #lymington #charity #support #smallbusiness #newforest #charitycollection

Our quest for a Healthy Business? Time out is our focus this week… Its budget time….and once again we can’t believe how fast this year has passed! We take time out to get together as a team, review the previous year and discuss whats important to grow our small but mighty business forward in the next year. Jane normally brings some inspirational thoughts into these meetings and this year a Simon Sinek story about a lumberjack (!) was the theme. Watch the link you’ll understand why the team just HAD to take a break and enjoy the sunshine in our very special place in the world! Am amazing team - Sarah Wilson, Rachel Smith, Susan T., Zoe Conway and Lauren Osey who bring their 'A game' every day! And special thanks to Molly Rance who held the fort at NFE HQ for us! “ https://lnkd.in/e34995Et #newforestescapes #team #smallbusiness #budgettime #timeout #timetogether #holidayletsuk

We’re super excited to have been a main feature in Coast magazine's round up of dog-friendly stays back in July… 🐾 They put us in the spotlight with an article in their online July edition (in print Nov...) which recognises us for our fantastic collection of Dog Friendly stays! Our extra efforts to make your four legged friends feel as welcome as at home go a long way; they said... "The team at New Forest Escapes, who are all locals themselves, are like dogs with bones when it comes to pairing you and your pooch with the perfect getaway ...almost all have enclosed gardens ... one even has an outside warm water wash station for cleaning muddy dogs!" We couldn’t have put it better ourselves! #newforestescapes #coastmagazine #dogfriendlyholidays #poochpairing #luxuryholidaycottages #newforest #smallbusiness #ukholidaylets #newforest

Cant believe the NFE team wasn’t called up this year to help the medal haul! But congratulations to all #TeamGB wherever they placed! 🥇 #newforestescapes #teamgb #olympics2024 #congratulations #teamNFE

Taking on a ‘work experience’ candidate can be a bit hit and miss. Luckily for us we’ve had a hit with our French student! He’s been working hard, focusing on our digital presence and online analytics. And he even created a super professional presentation on his final day to showcase all his findings. SO impressive in his 2nd language. Definitely been a great week for all in the office and we are so grateful for his help! Thanks Constantin! #newforestescapes #workexperience #smallbusiness #student #holidaylets
