Totton Hotels

On the edge of the picturesque New Forest, Totton is a gem of a town nestled on the River Test and a peaceful spot to spend a few well-earned days away from it all.

You can spend your time exploring the gorgeous countryside surrounding the town, walk along the riverbank, and go fishing or even boating on its waters. Or for a more action-packed day, head off to the neighbouring town of Southampton to soak up the city sights.

Exploring Totton

There are lots of interesting and unique places close to Totton, so it's easy to find ways to spend your time.

If you'd like to see some of the local, and in some case not so local wildlife, pop across to The New Forest Wildlife Park where you can catch a glimpse of anything from Scottish wildcats to wolves. And if that sounds like your kind of thing, Longdown Activity Farm has some tamer members of the animal kingdom.

The Eling Experience is another great attraction nearby. During your visit you'll get the chance to get inside a realistic air raid shelter, or just wander around the nature trails relaxing along the way.

For a really fun day out, try the rides at Paultons Family Theme Park. It's perfect for big kids of all ages.

Places to eat and stay

When it comes to dining out, you will be spoilt for choice though. Places range from Indian restaurants like Papadums, to traditional pubs like The White Horse and cosy cafés like The Chapel.
