Getting to Hampshire

Typical journey times. They vary with traffic and where in the county you are going.
FromBy roadBy rail
LondonAround 1 hr 30 min to 2 hr, via the M3 and M27Direct trains from London Waterloo to Brockenhurst, around 1 hr 30 min
BristolAround 2 hours, via the M4 and A36 or A350Trains to Southampton, around 2 hours
BirminghamAround 2 hr 30 min to 3 hr, via the M40 and A34Direct trains to Southampton, around 2 hr 30 min

The M27 and A31 serve the New Forest. Animals graze freely across the forest and many roads have lower speed limits, so journeys within it take longer than the distance suggests.

Questions about owning a caravan in Hampshire

How long does it take to drive to the New Forest from London?

Usually around an hour and a half to two hours via the M3 and M27, depending on traffic.

Which part of Hampshire should I look at?

Can I let my static caravan in Hampshire?

Some parks run letting schemes, some allow private letting with conditions, and some do not allow letting. It depends on the park, so check the park rules and pitch licence before you buy.
