Welcome to Lymington

Lymington is a charming coastal town located in Hampshire, England. It is situated on the western bank of the Lymington River, which flows into the Solent, a strait that separates the Isle of Wight from the mainland. The town is known for its picturesque harbor, which is home to a variety of boats and yachts. Lymington is also surrounded by beautiful countryside, including the New Forest National Park, which is just a short drive away.

One of the main attractions in Lymington is its bustling high street, which is lined with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants. Visitors can browse a range of unique boutiques, art galleries, and antique shops, or enjoy a meal at one of the many eateries that offer locally sourced produce. The town also hosts a weekly market, where visitors can purchase fresh produce, crafts, and other goods.

Lymington is a popular destination for outdoor enthusiasts, with plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling, and water sports. The town is situated on the Solent Way, a long-distance footpath that runs along the coast, and there are also several cycling routes that take in the surrounding countryside. Water sports enthusiasts can enjoy sailing, kayaking, and paddleboarding on the Solent, or take a ferry to the Isle of Wight for a day trip.
