Appearing at Southampton Crown Court, Trevor Stanley Northover, 73, admitted sexually touching a child under the age of 13 and inciting a child to engage in sexual activity.
The two offences were committed in March 2023, the court was told.
Northover, of Knightstone Grange in Hythe, was remanded on conditional bail until August 1 to enable a pre-sentence report to be prepared.
Gemma White, mitigating, said her client was having treatment for cancer and was due to see a consultant.
Judge Christopher Parker KC told the defendant that he would receive an immediate custodial sentence when his sentencing took place.
Referring to the date of the hearing, he added: "This gap will enable you to put your affairs in order."
