The Local Area

The property is set in the heart of Netley Village and is situated close to Netley Abbey Ruins and Southampton Water. Netley is the most complete surviving abbey built by the Cistercian monks in southern England. Almost all the walls of its 13th century church still stand, together with many monastic buildings.

The Royal Victoria Country Park is also a short stroll from the property with its idyllic parkland with fabulous water views, a coffee shop and beach front access. Royal Victoria Country Park, once the home of the biggest military hospital in the Victorian Empire, this 200-acre site is now ideal for relaxation and leisure. All that remains of the hospital is the chapel, which acts as a heritage centre providing history of the hospital. It also has a 150-foot (46 m) viewing tower, providing views over the park, and across Southampton Water to Hythe, and on a clear day, as far as Southampton itself.

Netley offers a range of local shops, a number of public houses and there is a good choice of schools within the vicinity. Public transport is well catered for with Netley train station linking Portsmouth and Southampton and onward journey links to London Waterloo, it is also within close distance of local sailing clubs.
