Seven Hampshire destinations have been named among the UK's best places to live in 2027 by lifestyle website Muddy Stilettos in its guide featuring 260 locations across the country. Founder Hero Brown said the guide aims to give people "that extra reassurance they need to make their decision easier in these difficult economic times" when searching for more than just a house but a lifestyle that works for them and their family.

The selections include Alresford, a Georgian town on the edge of the South Downs National Park known for pastel houses, riverside walks and independent shops, suited to those wanting a countryside setting with nearby activities and services. Alton is an East Hampshire market town near the Surrey border with direct trains to London, where homes can cost less than in nearby Petersfield, Winchester and Farnham. Andover, Hampshire's largest Test Valley town between Basingstoke and Salisbury, is undergoing a town-centre makeover with new shops, leisure facilities and entertainment spaces planned or being delivered around the Georgian Guildhall, and offers chalkstream walks and good road and rail links.
