In the summer months the Solent and waters around
the Isle of Wight abound with yachts
and motor cruisers occasionally punctuated by the passage of an Ocean Liner
from Southampton or a Naval
vessel from Portsmouth but for
those whom the sea does not hold a fascination then there is plenty to do on
dry land.
Hampshire boasts both the
New Forest and the
National Motor Museum at
Beaulieu. The
county is almost dissected by the
Test Valley one of
the countries famous river fishing locations. There are plenty of other
attractions from Buster Iron Age Farm to Rockbourne Roman Villa. To the
north the population increases in the new counties forming around the M4
corridor between Bristol and
London. But here too there is plenty to see
including Windsor Castle.
