Ringwood Holidays

The pleasant town of Ringwood is located along the winding path of the River Avon and is known as Hampshire’s western gateway to the protected New Forest National Park. The town has a long history as a flourishing market centre with the original market dating back to 1226. A weekly market still runs in the traditional market place in Ringwood and is a treat for visitors on a UK holiday here. Holiday accommodation in Ringwood is plentiful and offers something for everyone from budget to luxury UK holidays. Friendly B&Bs are scattered throughout the town, perfect for UK short breaks, while a selection of nearby campsites and caravan parks are ideal for budget UK holidays.   

 

Ringwood is situated just outside the New Forest National Park boundary and is therefore a popular UK holiday destination for those wishing to explore the delights of the forest from a handy base. Walking and cycling trails lead straight from the heart of Ringwood into the New Forest and are the perfect way to enjoy the tranquil woodland surroundings. The Avon Valley footpath also makes its way through Ringwood. A number of self-catering holiday cottages and holiday apartments can be found on the outskirts of Ringwood at the edge of the forest. These are a great option for family holidays in the UK benefitting from proximity to the New Forest as well as Ringwood’s amenities.  

 

Ringwood’s traditional market town heritage makes it a tranquil setting for a holiday in the UK. A gentle walk through the town is an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon in Ringwood taking in Jubilee Garden, the picturesque church and superb views of the River Avon from the arched stone bridge at the bottom of West Street. There are plenty of boutique shops in town for visitors to purchase unique New Forest souvenirs as well as the Town and Country Experience which offers an insight into Ringwood’s past. The town is also home to the Ringwood Brewery which produces fine cask ales, to be sampled in one of the brewery’s five pubs whilst on holiday in Ringwood.
