Our Story
With over 160 years of rich history, The 1860 Romsey stands as a testament to the town’s heritage and hospitality. Originally known as The Romsey Hotel, our establishment was built in 1860 by Lachlan Robertson, son-in-law of William Campbell, the pioneering figure behind Romsey's early development.
From its humble beginnings to the present day, The 1860 has remained a cherished landmark.
