Why Hampshire?
This south east coastal county has a perfect blend of buzzing cities and rural villages, so there's something for every traveller here! With two of the UK's national parks and some award-winning beaches, the scenery is not to be missed. Book a holiday rental in Hampshire and experience a little bit of everything.
About Hampshire
Hampshire is home to several cities, including the ancient capital of England, Winchester, as well as a large number of smaller villages; so you can find yourself in the hubbub of city life, or a calm rural escape, depending on where you head.
With strong ties to the sea in Portsmouth and Southampton, and fascinating history across the county, there's a lot to learn about and explore in this area.
What to do
Explore the Roman history of the region with a trip to the Roman Villa at Rockbourne, or Porchester Castle for something a bit more stately.
Those interested in the maritime history of the area will enjoy Portsmouth Dockyard, or the Mayflower Memorial in Southampton. Both of these cities have substantial associations with seafaring.
Top Hampshire travel tips
This is a big area, so you'll want a car to get around. Whilst public transport is great in the cities, the more rural you go, the less frequent the services tend to be; so a car is the best option if you want to see everything.
For an exciting holiday that'll enthral all the family, book your next holiday rental in Hampshire.
