When it comes to traveling in England, you would not want to miss a visit to Hampshire, one of the largest shire counties in the UK, especially if you are a nature lover or fond of fishing and other outdoor activities. Some of the best rivers for fishing are River Test and River Itchen, which are known for their salmon and sea trout. Other than fishing, you can spend a day of fun at Paultons Park Home of Peppa Pig World, which features attractions, rides, and diverse species of animals. Also, stop by Beaulieu Palace House to admire a 13th-century house that belongs to Barons Montagu of Beaulieu. However, if you want to stay somewhere where you can easily catch some seafood, read on to learn about the best fishing lodges in Hampshire, United Kingdom.

We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) host status, recent guest reviews, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and a location with easy access to fishing spots. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on October 26, 2024.
