Things to do in Romsey this September

September 1st, 2023

September is a busy time in Romsey, with plenty of family-friendly events taking place throughout the month. The Duke on The Test is perfectly situated just a short drive from all the action, making us the perfect place to relax after a busy day out. 

Romsey Show is back on Saturday 9th September and is sure to be a fun-filled day for all ages. With animals on display, a range of shows, and hundreds of trade and local organisation stands, there is something for everyone. As we are big dog fans here at The Duke on The Test - we have dog-designated rooms to prove it - we are particularly excited for the Family Dog Show, which even includes a ‘dog with the waggiest tail’ class! Once you have explored all that the Romsey Show has to offer, why not join us at The Duke on The Test for a relaxing drink and dinner? 

Southampton Boat Show is also on this month, showcasing everything boating related from Friday 15th to Sunday 24th September. The UK’s biggest festival of boating and water sports, you can expect to see beautifully designed boats, superyachts, kayaks and catamarans. Escape the hustle and bustle in the evenings at The Duke on The Test, the perfect place to unwind after an eventful day. Experience our dining delights and elegant rooms to truly relax. 

Following on from Southampton Boat Show, The Garden Show is coming to Broadlands for the weekend. Set over three days, from Friday 29th September to Sunday 1st October, the show will include talks and demonstrations on a range of gardening topics, fun-filled activities for the whole family and lots of entertainment. Enjoy a bustling day at the show and then retreat to the peace and quiet of The Duke of The Test. Treat yourself to dinner in our beautiful restaurant and experience a refreshing night’s sleep in one of our luxurious bedrooms.
