The Old Mill  

Riverside in Lymington, in the heart of the New Forest District and just a short drive from New Forest National Park and St Barbe Museum and Art Gallery. About 3 km from the town centre and minutes from Lymington Pier ferry and the Isle of Wight ferry terminal.

Twelve individually decorated rooms with espresso makers, flat-screen TVs and fridges. Expect riverside gardens, a terrace with views, deep soaking tubs and daily housekeeping in an informal, friendly inn where you might spot ducks—or even a kingfisher.

Complimentary wireless internet throughout and a conference hall make this a solid pick for small group stays or meetings. Free self parking onsite keeps travel simple.
