We use New Place hotel in Sherrill Heath, outside Southampton but has a great cruise package. Going on Saturday, £215 for bed and breakfast, 2 taxis and 25 nights parking. Great start to your holiday. Hotel has lovely grounds and an indoor swimming pool

We normally stay at New Place Hotel in Sherrill Heath outside Southampton and will be back there in October. In April we stayed at the Hilton Ageas Bowl Southampton, lovely hotel and would recommend both hotels. Both hotels have good cruise packages which include parking. New Place we book direct with the hotel and Ageas Bowl we booked via Holiday Extras.

We loved staying on board when we did our back to back. Ship was quiet and we had a lovely chilled day. Didn't need to go into Southampton, weather was good so we could use the empty pool and hot tub. We were lucky that we didn't have to move cabins. We were invited to the loyalty lunch which was nice too.
