Motorhome Stopover Site Description Description:

-The Lamb Inn is a charming and historic pub located in the picturesque village of Bockhampton, Christchurch. The building dates back to the 16th century and has retained much of its original character, with exposed beams, open fireplaces, and a cozy atmosphere. The pub serves a range of traditional British dishes, including hearty pies, fish and chips, and Sunday roasts, as well as a selection of local ales and ciders.

Bockhampton itself is a delightful village, surrounded by rolling countryside and dotted with thatched cottages and historic buildings. It is perhaps best known as the birthplace of the author Thomas Hardy, and visitors can explore his childhood home, now a museum, just a short walk from the Lamb Inn. The village is also a popular starting point for walks and bike rides in the nearby New Forest National Park, which offers miles of scenic trails and stunning views. Whether you’re looking for a cozy pub lunch, a taste of history, or an outdoor adventure, the Lamb Inn and Bockhampton have something to offer.
