Where to Stay
Hampshire boasts a number of beautiful hotels for all different kinds of budgets. There are large resorts, gorgeous hotels with the most elegant decorations as well as small inns. But the best (at least for me) have to be the luxury holiday cottages in Hampshire. I love the privacy of having a home, especially when it comes to traveling as a family.
What to Do
There are endless attractions and tours to be experienced in this region of the UK. The variety is amazing. So I narrowed it down to a few of the ones I think should not be missed.
- Motor Museum
- National parks
- Beach bumming
- Visit Jane Austen’s home/museum
- Check out historic places related to Charles Dickens
- Church tours
- Vineyard tour
Getting There
You can get there directly through one of its 5 airports. However I recommend taking a road trip. It is a great way to learn more about the country. Another fun away to get there is by train and you don’t get tired from driving.
These are just a few of the generals of Hampshire. I hope this was enough to inspire you to visit this corner of the world.
