Discover Lymington's maritime charm and explore the New Forest by bus and on foot, without the need for a car
Nestled on the western bank of the Lymington River, this delightful Georgian market town in Hampshire is a joy to explore for those travelling without a car. Its historic cobbled streets, lined with independent boutiques and charming cafes, lead down to the bustling quay where fishing boats and yachts bob gently. From here, you can watch the world go by or even hop on the ferry for a scenic crossing to Yarmouth on the Isle of Wight, making for a perfect car-free day trip.
Beyond the town centre, the surrounding saltmarshes and nature reserves offer tranquil walks and abundant birdlife, all easily accessible. A local bus journey can also whisk you into the heart of the New Forest National Park, allowing you to immerse yourself in ancient woodlands and open heathland at your own pace. Lymington truly offers a refreshing escape, where every turn reveals a new picturesque scene, best savoured on foot.
