About Lymington
This charming market town is also popular with families, drawn by the possibility of children enjoying a Swallows & Amazons childhood with adventures and activities on water and inland in the wilds of the New Forest, which nudges up against the northern edges of town. Meanwhile more mature folk consider Lymington ideal for retirement (around a third of the population are 65 and over) as it offers an excellent range of facilities and a strong community.
