The Walhampton Arms

If you’re looking for a base to explore the New Forest or the Georgian market town of Lymington, the Walhampton Arms hits all the right notes for a comfortable, fuss-free stay. The Highlights • Spotless Accommodations: The rooms are notably clean and well-maintained, striking a nice balance between rustic pub charm and modern comfort. You won't find any "country dust" here. • Warm Hospitality: The staff are a real standout—friendly, attentive. • The Breakfast Spread: Come hungry. The breakfast is excellent, featuring high-quality local ingredients. Whether you go for the full English or something lighter, it’s the perfect fuel for a day of hiking or sailing. • Stress-Free Logistics: Unlike many boutique spots in Lymington where street parking is a nightmare, this place has plenty of parking. You can roll in at any time and find a spot right outside.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Walhampton Arms. The staff were friendly, helpful, and efficient with assisting in our requests. This is a great place to stay to experience the local town. You get the perks that come with staying in a hotel balanced with the “mom and pop” feel associated with B&Bs. We will be looking to stay at their sister locations for our next city break!

Lonely rooms. (and short bread!), friendly and welcoming staff.

Great except for one thing - they were closed from 3 to 5 in the afternoon with no way of getting a key to our room. It would be useful if they could devise a system so that keys are available in this critical time in the afternoon so that people can gain access to their room and relax before the facilities open at 5 PM. Other than the above, all was excellent.

A very warm welcome at the reception. A really nice room which was very well presented, clean and all the necessary amenities. If we are nit picking, the only thing missing were a box of tissues in the room or bathroom! We had a really nice freshly cooked breakfast in the morning. All round, very good.
