About The Ship Inn

Welcome to The Ship Inn in Lymington

A traditional village pub set in the port of Lymington, just south of the New Forest National Park; The Ship Inn sits on the harbour-side, just a short drive from Pennington & Walhampton and a short sail from Yarmouth. We welcome sailors and other visitors who come to Lymington throughout the year.

Real Hampshire Pub Food

Eating out? We are a cracking pub restaurant in Hampshire, specialising in offering freshly cooked food all day, every day, including Sundays when we also put a great traditional roast on our specials blackboard.
