Mallards
Contact Info
Type: Bed & Breakfast
Luxury en-suite 5 Star accommodation set in a beautiful waterfront location, on the River Test, a famous Hampshire chalk stream renowned as the home to fly-fishing. Mallards provides peace and tranquillity yet only 25 metres from the centre of the charming village of Overton with interesting shops, pubs and restaurants dating back to medieval times. Beautifully appointed bedrooms, all en-suite.
Our award winning breakfast menu, including a full English breakfast, is served in the Garden Room overlooking crystal clear water of the River Test with wild Brown Trout, Moorhens and of course Mallard ducks. Inky our very special Drake often makes a guest appearance.
Overton itself is set in the centre of Hampshire in countryside designated as an area of outstanding beauty. Ideal for walking, hiking and horse riding - Wayfarers Walk and Watership Down are just a few miles to the north. Jane Austen was born in Steventon just over 3 miles away.
Mallards is an ideal base to explore the North Wessex Downs with good public transportation to Winchester or take the train to London, Salisbury and Exeter.
Complimentary transport to/from Popham Airfield and Overton station (1km).
Whether you arrive by car or public transport Mallards offers guests a warm welcome. Free WiFi and free onsite parking also available.
