The Local Area

For many visitors, it is enough to just wander the village, enjoying the peace and the beauty of the surroundings. But there are plenty of other things to do locally, including fishing, walking, cycling, horse-riding and clay pigeon shooting.

Yew Cottage B&B is particularly popular with those fishing on the River Test and at Dever Springs trout fishing lakes. For walkers, it serves as the perfect Test Way accommodation.

The local pub within walking distance, The Cricketers, serves lunch and evening meals throughout the week.

More information on Longparish can be found at the village website. The cathedral cities of Winchester and Salisbury are easily accessible, as are the Isle of Wight, Portsmouth and the South Coast.

Local attractions and activities include:

• Bombay Sapphire Distillery "Gin Factory"

• Chalk stream fishing

• Dever Springs trout fishing lakes

• Hawk Conservancy

• Thruxton Race Circuit
