Welcome to Hampshire in the south east of England, a county of contrasts and proud home of author Jane Austen, Nelson's HMS Victory, mighty Winchester Cathedral, Beaulieu Motor Museum in the New Forest and King Arthur's legendary Round Table.
Hampshire offers visitors an exciting balance of both coast and countryside, vibrant cities and sleepy chocolate-box villages, peaceful National Parks and lively festivals, colourful beach huts and grand stately homes and gardens. Each area of Hampshire offers visitors a unique experience and landscape, from the crystal clear chalk streams and cosy rural pubs of the Test Valley to the bustling pedestrian high street in historic Winchester with its independent shops and peaceful water meadows a stone's throw away. Or if you prefer a more cosmopolitan location, Gunwharf Quays in Portsmouth offers great shopping and amazing views of the Solent and the tall ships in Portsmouth Historic Dockyard from the iconic 170metre tall Spinnaker Tower.
