AU$53 Southampton accommodation

Southampton is a port city located on the southern coast of England, mostly notable for its titanic naval history. Literally. The R.M.S. Titanic set sail from these waters, as did the Mayflower. Today, Southampton remains a major cruise ship stop as well as a university town and centre for retail. Book your accommodation in Southampton downtown, right in the thick of things. While you're at it, why not look into London holiday packages? The British capital is just under 130 kilometres away!

Things to Do in Southampton

Drop off your bags at your Southampton accommodation, and head out to experience the nautical history of this historic port. Catch a glimpse of Southampton's past at the centuries-old Tudor House and Garden, walk the old city walls or spend a relaxing afternoon on the Common. Don't leave without making your mark on the regional history: charter a boat, or sign up for some sailing lessons from one of the numerous local schools.

Explore naval history at the Maritime Museum…or if you need a break from all the ships, check out aviation history at the Solent Sky Museum. Take your pick! Later, catch a show at the famous Mayflower Theatre or a game at St. Mary's Stadium. Southampton will appeal to any age or interest.
