Captains House is in an unrivaled prominent position overlooking The 'Waterfront Green', Hythe Pier and facing Southampton Water.  It is situated centrally within the conservation area of Old Hythe and Captains House commands superb views from the sitting room and master bedroom windows where you can watch the cruise liners and shipping pass by.

Hythe, "Where the Forest meets the Sea" is perfectly positioned and is ideal for both water lovers and those who want to enjoy the ancient forest with its open heath land and resident New Forest ponies, donkeys and cattle.  It is steeped in maritime history and Hythe Pier boasts of having the oldest working electric pier train in the world.  You can not visit Hythe without taking a ride on the train to the pier head where you can enjoy wonderful views or take a short ferry trip passing on your way to Southampton 'Dock Head' where the famous QM2 berths whilst at home.

The village offers a mix of Georgian, Victorian and modern architecture and has many shops to browse.  It has a small Waitrose and a variety of local inns and restaurants within the village and marina offering a wide variety of foods to suit most tastes.  A free of charge public slipway is available for launching dinghies and powerboats and there is short term boat storage available from Hythe Marina.

The New Forest provides endless walking opportunities which are just three miles away. There are numerous interesting places to visit such as Exbury Gardens, with its train ride through the Rhododendrons gardens and Beaulieu Palace, with the renowned Motor Museum - both within fifteen minutes drive. 

Whilst Hythe has a small shingle shore, there are two separate sandy/shingle beaches which are suitable for swimming and sail boarding approximately six miles away.  There are also many outdoor activities to enjoy including horse riding (a perfect way to explore the beautiful forest), golf, rock climbing, indoor swimming/sauna, track cycling and also dry skiing, all available locally.

Power Rib Boat lessons may be taken at the Marina which is just a short stroll away and bicycle hire is available within the village. Hythe also has an open air market every Tuesday where you can stock up on local provisions.  The Hythe ferry leaves every thirty minutes throughout the day and will take you to Southampton. The Isle of Wight is approximately thirty minutes by Hydrofoil or a sixty minute Car Ferry trip and ferries depart hourly from Southampton.

For those who want to venture a little further afield, the countryside towns of Lyndhurst and Lymington are just ten to twelve miles away.  The City of Winchester is thirty five minutes, Sailsbury with its beautiful cathedral is forty minutes and the fine sandy beaches of Bournemouth are under an hours drive away.
