Lymington Camping

Food tastes better when it's cooked outside…

Well-kept spacious pitches on a hilltop just outside Lymington
Beaulieu, Bucklers Hard and Highcliffe Castle within 20 minutes' drive
In the New Forest National Park, a 10-minute walk from the local pub

The history of Lymington dates all the way back to the Iron Age – folk have settled in this Hampshire market town for centuries, drawn by the possibilities presented by a location that’s close to both river and sea. And that mix of watery views is quite the draw for modern visitors too: this is a place that’s now something of a hub for sailing and yachting, and hosts a seawater swimming pool that also happens to be the UK’s oldest lido. All of this is easily accessed from Lymington Camping, in a rural location just outside the town and about five minutes’ drive/half an hour’s walk from its main centre. This particular spot has a lot going for it: not only is it easy to get to shops and places to eat, but it’s also in a rather lovely location up on a hill where you can spend evenings watching colourful sunsets. The site also happens to be just inside the boundary of the New Forest National Park – and that presents a whole load more things to see and do. From here it’s easy to head out for a walk or a bike ride (including a stop at the local pub, just over half a mile away, if you wish). There are lots of free-roaming animals to look out for as you explore, so keep your eyes open for wild ponies, cattle and donkeys (plus pigs in the autumn). All has been kept nicely simple on site, with limited numbers of pitches to make sure there’s a real feeling of space. Facilities include a washing-up area, hot-water shower, a flushing toilet and two eco loos – all are checked and cleaned regularly. There’s also a handy noticeboard of local information to keep you up to date.
