Nearby pub
A sister pub to the Kings Head in Lymington, you'll find real ales, bar meals and fine dining here. There's a sunny courtyard garden for outside dining and cozy log fires to keep you toasty in winter.
Nearby beach
Set within Christchurch Bay, Milford on Sea's beaches offer sea and shore a stone's throw from lots of amenities, shops and eateries. Mostly pebble and shingle, the beaches enjoy stunning views of the Isle of Wight, particularly beautiful on a clear day. Caution is advised while swimming as there is a fairly steep shelf and no lifeguard cover.
Nearby walk
A little bit long at around ten miles but it's perfectly easy with wonderful views (and you can get the bus back). This walk takes you through nature reserves, riverways, forest, clifftop and town, so there's something for everyone. Check the weblink for full details and directions.
Nearby town
What more could you want in a market town, being situated waterside on the edge of the New Forest? Lymington is a pretty Georgian town with its open air seawater bath and marina that sailing enthusiasts flock to from all over the world. If watery pursuits are not your thing, the ancient landscapes surrounding the town are areas of outstanding natural beauty and Sites of Specific Scientific Interest. Or pop on the car ferry to the Isle of Wight.
Also nearby
On the north-west coast of the Isle of Wight, this bustling small town has lots to offer incuding the longest wooden pier in England dating back to 1875. You will also find some lovely cafes, an eclectic range of boutique shops, cobbled streets and a fabulous Tudor Castle. The Wightlink ferry arrives and departs to and from Lymington here and it's a great place to watch yachts and ships sail by.

We had amazing fish and chips on the beach here in the evening, 5 minutes drive from the house.
Lovely town to look around and fabulous ships to watch
A bijou village that grew around the original Abbey at the head of the Beaulieu River. An ancient and pretty monastery village, home to the country's National Motor Museum.
Ancient Abbey ruins were the centre of the village settlement and imparted its name. Now, Palace House is home to the Montagu family and there are exhibitions of monastic life with grounds and gardens to get lost in. Oh, and the famous motor museum of course.
Everything motoring is covered but even if you're not an enthusiast, there are some lovely specimens on display, set in stunning grounds.
Offering views across the Solent, this bistro bar and restaurant has a wide ranging menu throughout the day. You can watch the world go by from the outdoor seating or enjoy the nautical interior inside. Dogs and children are welcome.

Great views, tasty vegan food
We booked in advance having seen reviews about it being busy, glad we did it was full. We were lucky to get window table, wonderful view, relaxed environment, friendly efficient staff. Great to gave vegan options and can recommend the quality chilli. Would certainly go again!

Great Atmosphere
Ate here twice during our weeks stay in Seaview. Even though we hadn’t booked the first time we went, which was a busy Saturday lunch time and we were a party of 6 including a 3 year old, we were given a warm welcome and seated with no problems. We had great service and the food was delicious on both occasions. We booked for our second visit as it seems to be a very popular place, understandably given the quality of the food and the service. Very family friendly too with a great buzzy atmosphere, would highly recommend a visit.

Excellent food and great staff
This is a great place to eat as it has some lovely dishes and has a specials board. We tried the sea bass which was so nice we returned for a second helping! Our party also tried the fish of the day which was a whole sea bream, again delicious. The shell on prawns, the fish and chips and the crab ramekin were also really nice and the bread served here was gorgeous and you get plenty of butter. The chocolate brownie dessert was a triumph too. All of this, plus it is dog friendly! Definitely recommended to try.

The Old Fort Seaview
Lovely seaside pub with outside sitting area. Enjoyed the food, but you do need to book ahead as they get very busy and its OK to sit outside if it is a balmy summer evening.

Nice but....
We never got to actually eat in this pub. We did try several times but we were either too late or too early and they weren't serving food and then on our last evening there we were told no dogs after 6pm so we couldn't get a table. To be honest we did rather feel that sailing club members were given priority over holiday makers and that we were a bit of a nuisance that is tolerated rather than encouraged.
