Lymington – 7 Quirky Facts
- Old Hat(s)
Lymington market (held every Saturday) sells an array of produce and crafts and dates back to the 13th century. - Sea the Sights
Lymington Open Air Sea Water Baths are the oldest lido in the UK. - Gold!
During the 2012 Olympics many towns had post boxes painted gold in recognition of local heroes picking up medals. After Ben Ainslie won gold, Lymington was ready for a regal looking box of their own, however the Royal Mail decided to paint a post box in the Cornish village where Ben grew up instead. Outraged, one local man took matters into his own hands and painted a post box gold. After his arrest (and local press) Royal Mail relented and Lymington got its gold box. - Invaders
At various times in its history, Lymington has been home to Britons, Jutes and Anglo Saxons. The Kings German Legion Artillery and Dutch troops were stationed here during the Napoleonic Wars. Today it’s tourists and seagulls most likely to disturb the peace and quiet. - Harbours
Lymington has three harbours (take that Dover!) and hosts a number of sailing events with races of up to 100 boats through the summer. - Buckland Rings
The earliest sign of a settlement in the area was an Iron Age hill fort which today is known as Buckland Rings. - Smugglers Tales
There are many smugglers tales regarding a ‘secret tunnel’ that runs from the harbour, under and into the town. No evidence has yet been found but the legends live on.

About Lymington
Sitting on the edge of the New Forest and famed for its sailing, Lymington often plays host to the world’s largest sailing events, races and regattas. Events take place every Thursday evening through the summer months and can involve over 100 boats. It is very much a nautical town with three harbours and industry and shops dedicated to racing and pleasure craft.
Independent shops are at the heart of Lymington life and the locals went into battle to prevent Wetherspoons from opening a branch (although the national chain won in the end and opened one branch).
The town’s history dates back to the Iron Age, it was mentioned in the Doomsday Book as ‘Lentune’ and a town museum shines a light on Lymington’s colourful past.
Leisure
Lymington has plenty to sea and do (sea what we did there?). Pleasure boats are available to hire for those that don’t have their own boat in one of the three harbours. There’s an open-air swimming pool as well as a more conventional covered pool, nine-hole golf course, museum, art gallery, rowing club, sports centre, bowling greens, tennis courts, skate park and a small cinema/theatre.
A number of festivals and events fill Lymington’s calendar, many of which relate to the town’s maritime roots.
Transport
A ferry port for the Isle of Wight, Lymington is just 22 minutes from the M27 with routes to the M3 and M25 as well as east to Chichester and Brighton. Christchurch and Bournemouth lie directly west and there are two train stations with trains to London taking 2 hours.
