About

Langdown and Dibden Purlieu form a settled area on the eastern edge of the New Forest National Park. The landscape is characterised by residential streets and local amenities, situated on rising ground above the waters of Southampton Water. This location provides a practical residential base with direct access to the protected heath and woodland of the Forest itself, offering a contrast between suburban living and open natural space.

A notable feature is the presence of the large, historic Langdown Lawn, a remnant of a former estate that now serves as a central recreational ground. The area's proximity to the Hythe Ferry connection offers a distinct transport link across the estuary to Southampton. Views from higher points can extend over the industrial shoreline of the Marchwood peninsula, grounding the area within its wider coastal context.
