Rooms were very nice and comfortable. We had to leave at 7.30 so could not have breakfast as service started at 8am. Pub part felt soulless and having to sit and drink whilst staff have finished their shift and were chatting to working staff spoilt the quiet atmosphere. To me it felt overpriced for the product we received

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!

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.

Everything was really good with our stay at Walhampton Arms last night! We were welcomed when we arrived to check in! We ate our dinner in the restaurant (I really like the small portions available for people like us who have smaller appetites) and breakfast was brilliant this morning! Set us up for the day, which we spent in and around Lymington before driving back home! All in all a lovely stay at the Walhampton Arms. Thank you!

Very well appointed hotel for staying in Lymington

A lovely practical room on the ground floor (as all rooms there were) with everything I needed for a good night's stay. The bathroom had THE most sensible shower I've ever experienced - the controls set apart from where the water descends on you so I could get the temperature and flow right before starting to shower! (why isn't this standard in hotels?). Lovely helpful staff and I liked the atmosphere of the place.

Stopped for one night. First impressions - the Walhampton Arms is a very beautiful structured building. Nice friendly staff. There is plenty of seating and a nice dining area. There was plenty of choice for the dinner menu, but l felt it was very limited for the breakfast. And found my egg was a bit greasy, maybe that's because it was fried quickly as we came for breakfast just before closing. The rooms were spacious, but being ground level, I felt l couldn't really leave my window open at night, so I just had the smallest gap. The room can get stuffy very quickly but thankfully there was a fan in the room. The Walhampton Arms is nice and close to the centre of lymington quay and towns market (that was a treat, fantastic stalls) and museum.

The Walhamton Arms was ideally located for exploring the area. A five minute walk into Lymington centre. The accommodation was clean, cosy and tastefully decorated. Added bonus that rooms were away from the main building as staying with our dog. On site bar and dinning . Good selection of meals which were tasty and well presented. Bear in mind of possible closures of restaurant facilities but plenty of alternative options in Lymington. Friendly, welcoming and helpful staff. Good quality breakfast. Would certainly stay again .
