The Mayflower

About

The Mayflower Inn, situated on King’s Saltern Road in the picturesque harbour town of Lymington, offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere that blends traditional pub charm with comfortable accommodation. Guests can relish classic British pub fare—seasonal dishes made with local produce, hearty Sunday roasts, and a range of drinks from cask ales to craft beers—while enjoying the fresh sea air in an inviting beer garden. For those staying the night, six well-appointed bedrooms provide a cosy retreat, each with a distinctive style and seaside views. During the festive season the Inn truly shines. The Christmas page showcases a range of carefully curated menus and packages, from hearty Christmas Eve feasts to festive hampers for stays over the holidays. Festive opening hours extend until midnight on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve, with special bookings available from early December. A £10 per person deposit is required for all festive bookings, and a £25 deposit is charged for Christmas Day arrangements. The Inn’s staff are ready to accommodate a variety of dietary needs, including vegan, vegetarian, and gluten‑free options. Beyond dining, The Mayflower serves as a convenient base for exploring the surrounding New Forest region, nearby attractions such as Beaulieu, the Motor Museum, and the beautiful beaches of Bournemouth. With free Wi‑Fi, ample parking, and a dog‑friendly policy, it is a favourite for families, couples, and solo travellers alike. Whether you’re looking to enjoy a relaxed day out in Lymington, celebrate a special occasion, or simply unwind by the sea, The Mayflower Inn offers a blend of good food, comfortable rooms, and a joyous atmosphere that makes it a valuable addition to any Hampshire visit.
