Hotels in Hampshire
Three great cities dominate Hampshire – Winchester, Saxon and Norman capital of England, Southampton, once a Norman seaport and still a busy maritime centre, and Portsmouth, home of the Royal Navy.
In Winchester the Great Hall of the castle remains, reputed to be King Arthur’s Camelot and Round Table. Southampton, whence the Pilgrim Fathers sailed for the New World, is gateway to the Solent, Britain’s busiest waterway and a great yachting centre.
Portsmouth is Britain’s maritime capital and is home to three great ships: HMS Victory, Nelson’s flagship; HMS Warrior, Britain’s first iron clad warship and The Mary Rose, Henry VIII’s warship sunk in the Solent in 1545 and whose hull was raised form the sea bed in 1982.
The New Forest is home to wild deer and ponies. Broadlands, former home of Lord Mountbatten and currently closed for renovation, is nearby. Beaulieu, at the edge of the Forest, is home to Lord Montagu’s National Motor Museum, with over 200 historic motor vehicles on show.
Whatever your reasons for visiting the county, our hotels in Hampshire offer great bases from which to explore.
