Offering fantastic views across Southampton Water, Royal Victoria Country Park is a great place to watch the busy shipping coming in and out of Southampton. Once the home of the biggest military hospital in the Victorian Empire this 200-acre site is now ideal for relaxation and leisure.
The park’s ancient woodlands, large open spaces, boardwalks and ponds offer something for everyone. There are a number of picnic areas throughout the site and family BBQ areas can be hired. The Cedar Tearooms serves a wide variety of hot and cold food and children will love taking a ride on the miniature railway or burning off steam in the picturesque play areas. The Heritage Visitor Centre exhibition tells the fascinating history of the site and the important role it played throughout the World Wars. There is an exciting programme of events and activities taking place throughout the year.
Pay and display car parking is in operation throughout the year, please see website for current prices and events
