Watch out for the high tide. Need to swim to the ferry.......

Hamble-le-Rice is a charmling little village situated on the banks of the River Hamble near Southampton. The village features a wealth of picturesque streets with quaint shops, cosy pubs and delightful atmosphere.

Part of NCN route 2, this is a pleasant traffic-free section of cycling through Royal Victoria Country Park. It features a historic chapel perched on the shores of Southampton Water. The Chapel was once at the heart of the Royal Victoria Military Hospital. The hospital building was demolished in 1966 and now only the Chapel remains. There's a kiosk in the chapel selling a range of hot and cold drinks, snacks and ice creams.

Site of the old military hospital: the old chapel survives as a visitor centre (you can go up the tower), there are children's play areas, a miniature railway and lots of flat gentle walks. You have to pay to park the car but walkers and cyclists get in free.
