You’ll notice immediately that everything you need on a daily basis is on your doorstep in the Georgian market town of Alton. A short walk takes you to Waitrose supermarket, so picking up the daily essentials is a breeze. The high street is close by too. Here you’ll discover lots of familiar names, including Sainsbury’s and M&S Food. The town has retained a wealth of independent shops, salons and boutiques. As befitting an area once famed for growing watercress, Alton hosts a weekly farmers’ market selling local and seasonal produce. This love of food is reflected in the town’s superb choice of eateries, from traditional pubs to restaurants offering world cuisines.

If you enjoy history, the Curtis Museum boasts one of the finest local history collections in Hampshire and you will be delighted to find an outstanding display of ceramics in The Allen Gallery. The glorious steam engines of the Watercress Line connect with the Alton’s train station.

When it comes to green spaces, you’ll be spoilt for choice. The public gardens are wonderful for an afternoon stroll and the bandstand hosts musical events throughout the summer.
