About

About Lyndhurst

Lyndhurst is a village and civil parish situated in the New Forest in Hampshire, England, about nine miles (14 km) south-west of Southampton. Known as the "capital of the New Forest", Lyndhurst houses the New Forest District Council and Court of Verderers.

The first mention of Lyndhurst was in the Domesday Book of 1086 under the name 'Linhest'. The Court of Verderers sits in the Queen's House in Lyndhurst. (Verderers are forestry officials in England who deal with common land in certain former royal hunting areas which are the property of the Crown.)

Averages for 1991–2020 over the surrounding area, a grid square about 50 km across, so a coast or a nearby mountain can make the town itself warmer or cooler.

Getting there

Getting to Lyndhurst: airports and arrival

The nearest airport with scheduled flights is Southampton Airport (SOU), about 18 km from the city centre in a straight line; Bournemouth Airport (BOH, 21 km) and Bristol Airport (BRS, 98 km) are also within reach.

Getting in

The nearest city is Southampton, about 9 miles (14 km) to the north-east. The village is the meeting point of the A35, which runs NE to SW between Southampton and Bournemouth, and the A337 which runs north to south between Cadnam on the M27, and Lymington, a ferry port for the Isle of Wight on the south coast. Lyndhurst does not have a railway station, but it is served by Ashurst New Forest station, 3 miles (5 km) away. It is also 4 miles (6 km) from Brockenhurst and under 4 miles from Beaulieu Road station.

Getting around

To deal with the large volume of traffic through the village, there is a one-way system. This in effect turns the major roads of the village into a traffic circle. In summer the traffic through the village increases hugely because of the tourists. This can create queues into the village from all directions.
