The area

The Georgian market town of Lymington is set on the coast in the beautiful New Forest National Park and is only a 5 minute car ride away. Famous for its sailing history, there are two large marinas filled with fishing boats and yachts, as well as two sailing clubs. The town’s narrow streets are lined with pretty period cottages and houses, and don’t miss the thriving local market held each Saturday, which dates back to the 13th century.

We are surrounded by heathland, stunning nature, forest trails, ancient woodlands and native ponies. The opportunities for outdoor activities are abundant and there are many places of interest to visit including; Exbury Gardens, Bucklers Hard, Hurst Castle, Beaulieu National Motor Museum, to name just a few. The Isle of Wight is also a delightful day out and just a short ferry ride away.
