Netley: Your Coastal Escape
On the edge of Southampton Water, Netley is where seaside calm meets everyday convenience. Wander along the shoreline, breathe in the fresh sea air, and explore the historic Royal Victoria Country Park, with its woodlands, open spaces, and iconic chapel tower.
This welcoming village has a relaxed, friendly vibe, with cosy cafés, local shops, and traditional pubs. And when you want more hustle and bustle, Southampton, the M27, and train links to Hamble, Hedge End, and Winchester are all just minutes away.
Sea views, green space, and city connections, Netley has it all.

A place steeped in history
Step into Netley’s past with the hauntingly beautiful Netley Abbey ruins and the Royal Victoria Country Park, once home to a grand military hospital linked to Florence Nightingale. History, coast, and charm, all in one unforgettable place.

A connected, welcoming community
Netley combines a friendly, close‑knit feel with great local amenities and quick links to nearby towns, vibrant Southampton, and reliable transport routes, giving you coastal calm without losing touch with the places that matter.
