Mill Rythe Lane

Street guide, Hayling Island

Mill Rythe Lane provides access to the Mill Rythe area on the eastern side of Hayling Island. The lane winds from the main road network down to the harbour edge, passing residential properties and the Mill Rythe Holiday Village. The holiday park brings seasonal visitors and contributes to the local economy, though the lane is quiet for much of the year outside the summer peak. The lane has a semi-rural character, with hedgerows and glimpses of the harbour through gaps in the vegetation. Mill Rythe Holiday Village has operated on this site for decades, and the park's presence has shaped the character of this corner of the island. The tidal creek at Mill Rythe is an attractive feature, filling and draining with the harbour tide.
