The house

About The Old Police Station 1858

Built in 1858, The Old Police Station has stood at the heart of Fordingbridge for more than 165 years. Believed to be one of Hampshire's oldest surviving purpose-built police stations, it was once home to generations of police officers and their families, from Victorian sergeants to modern-day police staff. Today, this remarkable Grade II listed building begins its next chapter, welcoming guests to experience a piece of living history.

Lovingly restored, The Old Police Station combines original heritage with contemporary comfort. Original Victorian cell doors, vaulted former police cells and period architectural details remain, while elegant interiors create a warm and luxurious retreat designed for modern living.
