Alton, Down A32, Pick up A272, that goes nearly all the way to Salisbury, pick up the Fordingbridge road and head towards Ringwood, bit of a cruise through the Forest should see you there.

SS2.

Got Sat-Nav, and time not really a factor ?

A31 - Alton to Winchester
A3090 - Winchester to Ower via Hursley & Ampfield
A36 - Ower roundabout (by McD's) towards Salisbury
Take left ~200 yards after speed camera towards Bramshaw
Head for Brook / Bramshaw Golf Club
From here, take Roger Penny Way towards Fordingbridge
Take first left after a couple of miles towards Fritham
After a couple of miles take right turn (by pond) to Ringwood
At Ringwood (Poulner), take B3347 to Christchurch via Sopley
At Christchurch, take A35 to Bournemouth

Some good pubs on that route beer
