Hampshire schools follow the standard English term dates: a week in late May, six weeks from late July to early September, and two weeks at Christmas and Easter. Expect higher demand and prices during these periods.
Does the weather affect the Lymington–Yarmouth ferry?
Yes – strong winds or thick fog can delay or cancel sailings. Always check the live forecast above and the ferry operator’s site before travelling. The Bristol Weather page is a good comparison for wider regional conditions.
