We start with a local departure for our journey south. We have 4 nights 3-course dinner, bed and English breakfast accommodation reserved at the 4* Solent Hotel & Spa set in woodland between Southampton and Portsmouth. Features include an AA Rosette restaurant and grill, bar, swimming pool & spa facilities (some may be chargeable). All bedrooms are en-suite with tv, tea/coffee making facilities.
During your stay we have included these great excursions:
- New Forest & Bournemouth - Travel through the New Forest - remaining largely unchanged from the days when William the Conqueror ‘hunted the beasts of the chase’, this historic region enjoys stunning scenery and is dotted with pretty villages. We continue to the seaside resort of Bournemouth. A long-time favourite with British holiday-makers, admire the sweeping coastal views and lively holiday attractions.
- Portsmouth - Enjoy an excursion to the waterfront city of Portsmouth, home to the British Royal Navy for over 500 years and boasting a wealth of maritime history. A city surrounded by the sea, you'll find some of the finest maritime museums in the country here as well as the soaring, modern Spinnaker Tower that provides views of the coast and beyond.
