Let’s talk about Lymington shops. Of all the towns in the New Forest, this is my favourite place for a spot of retail therapy. All the clothing brands I love are located here, for starters.

So if you also adore the likes of Fat Face, Salt Rock and Seasalt, then you’re in for a treat. Food-wise the town comes up trumps too, with an M&S Food and a sizable branch of Waitrose. Lymington High Street shops also include charity stores, and as a wealthy area you can snap up some really good items in these.

Whether you want to know what there is in terms of Lymington charity shops, are looking for gift shops in Lymington or want to find a toy, pet, dress, flower or kitchen shop in Lymington, this guide is here to point the way.

Read on to discover all the Lymington shopping you can indulge in!
