Check out our interactive map to see where everything is in Hampshire.

I have lived in Hampshire all my life, but am still amazed at the diversity of things to do as a local or for someone on holiday. We are so lucky to have such a fantastic coastline with historic events that can hardly be equalled anywhere in the country. The warships that left Portsmouth for duty to defend our shores, The Schneider Trophy Races that propelled aviation and engine design more than any other event, and of course the D-Day invasion that surely was the greatest piece of logistic endeavour ever attempted by a nation under siege.

I have collected as a food lover many places to buy local produce, and one such Farm, Laverstoke Park Farm, owned by ex F1 Driver Jody Scheckter, is promoting this weekend Car-Fest along with Chris Evans, This is his dream of the perfect family festival, and of course, CarFest is also raising money for BBC Children in Need.

We take our Beer very seriously in Hampshire with many micro breweries sprouting up, and this weekend hosts the famous Flower Pots Beer Festival.

I have run B&B for many years and even with the strict ruling over health and safety, our Farmhouse B&B’s are some of the best you can find, and if that is not your scene, check out our self-catering establishments.

We are fortunate to have again a premiership football team in Southampton with a wonderful history, and our cricket team are in the 20/20 finals on Saturday, wish them well.

Well, if you can think of any other reason to shout out Hampshire is great, drop me an email, info@agentsmart.co.uk
