14 handpicked places to stay

Hotels in East Meon itself are scarce, in keeping with the village's small scale, but a handful of characterful rooms can be found above its historic pubs, alongside farmhouse bed and breakfasts in the surrounding Meon Valley. What East Meon lacks in big hotel names it makes up for in setting: guests staying nearby wake to sheep-cropped downland, beech hangers and the sound of the River Meon rather than traffic. Ye Olde George Inn, a 15th-century coaching inn on the green, offers rooms with the same inglenook charm as its bar and restaurant below, making it the obvious first stop for anyone wanting to stay in the village itself.
For more choice, Petersfield is only four miles away and has a wider spread of hotels and inns, from Georgian coaching houses to modern chain options, all within easy reach of East Meon by car or taxi. Further afield, Winchester and the Portsmouth coast both offer larger hotel selections for those happy to base themselves a little further out and drive in for a day of walking and sightseeing. Wherever you stay, book ahead for weekends between spring and early autumn, when the South Downs National Park draws walkers and cyclists in numbers and rooms in and around the Meon Valley fill up quickly.
