Fordingbridge is a traditional Hampshire town on the banks of the River Avon, and offers a good mix of shops, pubs and restaurants, a small museum of local history and a display of original work by the artist Augustus John, who lived here for many years. The medieval Great Bridge, with seven graceful arches, is a major feature of the town. The immediate area is a wonderful place for visitors, with its beautiful scenery, nature havens, cycleways and welcoming people. Fordingbridge is conveniently situated for the magnificent cathedral city of Salisbury to the north, and the super seaside resort of Bournemouth to the south. The stunning New Forest National Park is only 1.5 miles from the town, where you can explore thousands of acres of moor, heath and woodland frequented by wild ponies, and dotted with quaint villages and country pubs. Within a short drive is the magnificent Elizabethan manor house at Breamore, as well as the New Forest Water Park, and a trip to Beaulieu, home of the National Motor Museum is not to be missed. This is a great location for exploring this picturesque and interesting area.

Previous visitors' comments about The Fairings:
Fordingbridge is perfectly situated for easy access to all parts of the New Forest and the surrounding area. It was lovely to drive around through such beautiful countryside among the ponies and other animals. There are many interesting places to visit and the area has a very ancient history.
Mrs Davies, Seaford, September 2012
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Fairings. It was compact but had everything we needed and felt very warm and welcoming and perfect for two adults. We have stayed at many rental properties and appreciated the little touches that the owner offered e.g. tea tray and chocolates, tea, coffee, sugar, fresh milk, all kitchen cleaning equipment, plenty of logs and kindling sticks. Was nice to have all the kitchen equipment matching, not odds and ends that most rentals seem to provide. The owner was also very helpful when contacted. Would recommend.

The owners made us feel welcome. The parking arrangement was very useful. The location of the property is excellent.

Good access to the forest. Cosy little cottage with nice decor, a real fire and a comfy sofa.
