Beaulieu is home of the National Motor Museum, the historic Palace House and Beaulieu Abbey.

National Motor Museum
From small beginnings in 1952, when Lord Montagu of Beaulieu first displayed a handful of veteran cars in the ancestral home, Palace House, the collection has grown to 250 vehicles as well as memorabilia and displays. At every turn you'll find something to fascinate you. From some of the earliest examples of motoring in the 1890's, to the famous Model T, and legendary World Record Breakers like Bluebird and Golden Arrow. From 'film star' cars and touring limousines, from Formula 1 racers, sports cars to family cars from the 30's, 40's and 50's. You'll even see motoring oddities such as a giant orange on wheels.

Palace House
Formerly the Great Gatehouse of Beaulieu Abbey, Palace House has been home to the Montagu family since 1538, and is one of the Treasure Houses of England. Today, whether your interest is as a private individual, group or part of an educational visit, you can still see the monastic origins of the building and talk to Victorian characters from the House as you explore the rooms and gardens of Britain's most visited Stately Home.

Beaulieu Abbey
Beaulieu Abbey was founded in 1204, when King John made a gift of land to the Cistercian Monks. Although much of the Abbey was destroyed during the reign of Henry VIII some significant buildings have survived. Whether your interest is as a private individual, group or part of an educational visit, these ruins give an insight to the life of a monastic order in the 13th century.
