Overview

This is a lovely circular walk through old Bursledon, a little bit of woodland and into Hamble Le Rice. Here we meander past the cottages and seemingly many Olde Pubs to the Marina where we will catch the ferry. Once over the other side, we trace the path along side the River Hamble heading towards Brooklands and back to Bursledon.

While we wait for the ferry there is ice cream, a cafe and a pasty shop to tempt you!
