Walhampton is a hamlet in the New Forest National Park of Hampshire, England. It lies approximately 0.5 miles (1.0 km) east from Lymington, on the east bank of the Lymington River.

It is noted for the Walhampton Monument erected in 1840, to the memory of Sir Harry Burrard-Neale, 2nd Baronet, former Admiral, and M.P. for Lymington between 1790 and 1832.
