Two miles north of Rowlands Castle lies the rural hamlet of Forestside within the stunning Southdowns National Park. You are deep in the country and yet there are a number of amenities close by, including a doctor's surgery, general store, chemist, cafe, pubs and veterinary surgery, all close to the village green. Rowlands Castle to the south is an extremely sought after village on the Hampshire West Sussex border surrounded by stunning countryside and the Stansted Estate. The village has an attractive green with a few local shops, pubs, restaurant and coffee shop. There are good sporting facilities including an 18 hole golf course, tennis and badminton clubs. A train station provides a main line to London and the A3M is a short drive to the west and the M27/A27 due South. A few miles further south is Emsworth town centre, harbour foreshore and the train station providing commute via Havant to London Waterloo or via Chichester to London Victoria. The town offers lovely coastal walks and three mill ponds rich in wildlife. The town has a thriving community and many well-supported shops and is something of a 'foodie' haven with a wide array of pubs, cafés and restaurants. Convenient for access to Chichester with its renowned Festival Theatre, and to Portsmouth for the Historic Dockyard and cross channel ferries.
