Highlights
Designed by the multi-award-winning David James Architects, the homes are designed with clean lines and a feeling of spaciousness, around a light-filled communal lounge and kitchen, from which you can wander out at your ease onto the shared garden terrace and landscaped garden.
Communal lounge
The spacious and elegantly-decorated communal lounge opens out onto a shared garden terrace which overlooks the lovely manicured gardens. It lends itself to so many uses: cheese and wine evenings with neighbours and friends, the perfect spot for a catch-up over a pot of tea, or somewhere to while away a quiet afternoon with a puzzle or a good book.
Landscaped gardens
In such a picturesque town, only the very loveliest garden would do. The artfully landscaped grounds at Lymington Gate are full of winding pathways, fragrant shrubberies, and lots of places to sit and enjoy the mild South Coast climate.
Guest suite
The town attracts a wealth of visitors all year round, so when your family or friends come to see you, how wonderful it is to be able to book them into the on-site guest suite, with its luxurious decor and ensuite bathroom.
On-site team
As well as organising a regular calendar of social events, our team has a knack for making residents feel looked-after and understood. If you need help with practical issues or just fancy a friendly chat, or word of advice: they’re there to support you, in any way they can.
Apartments
All one- and two-bedroom homes are finished to the highest standard and triple glazed, so they’re warm, light and peaceful. glazing. Most enjoy their own private outdoor space too, either a patio or a balcony. Here’s a guide to the homes that are available to buy at the moment, but circumstances can change at short notice, so contact us if you’re interested in this community.
Residents and the town’s many visitors enjoy the boutiques and a carefree café culture that benefits from the fresh sea air and milder South Coast climate. The beautiful New Forest is just up the road, as is the Solent Way coastal path: for the twitcher, the birdlife of Keyhaven Marshes is a must, and for the historian there’s Henry VIII’s magnificent Hurst Castle. As for keen sailors, the world-famous Royal Lymington Yacht Club offers competitive yachting, dinghy sailing and motor boating.

Testimonials
A Day in the Life of Pumpkin!
We love telling the stories of our residents and their journeys of how they came to choose their Pegasus Homes. For this very special resident at our Lymington Gate community, the choice was made for them - but they couldn’t be happier or more at home in their new two-bedroom apartment, overlooking the landscaped gardens of the development.
For Anne, the move to Pegasus Homes’ Lymington Gate community, in the heart of the New Forest was a familiar one as she had many fond memories of the area from her childhood. Anne’s sister moved to Lymington when Anne was growing up, and she recalls enjoying the open spaces that the forest has to offer, as well as the famous New Forest wildlife - memories which have stayed ‘deer’ to her heart to this very day!
"The apartment is so spacious and well designed. There’s more than enough room for the two of us and the design is so well thought out - there is so much storage - so much more than I think you’d expect from a development like this."
Pegasus Homes Resident - Lymington Gate
“I’m so proud to show off my home to visiting family and friends. It’s like a 5 star hotel, my friends love coming to visit and enjoying the communal lounge and terrace - and I honestly feel like I’m on holiday all the time! I’ve never felt so relaxed.”
Pegasus Homes Resident - Lymington Gate
“We looked at Lymington Gate first when deciding to move, because we saw that pets were allowed at the development. We categorically would not have moved anywhere where we could not take Pumpkin with us.”
