Discover The Swan Inn
We are excited to launch the new Swan Inn! Previously a managed house, The Swan is now the independent free house home to Lee and Lisa Sainsbury and their family, with every detail a personal choice.
At The Swan Inn, we take pride in serving delicious food that captures the essence of a traditional English pub. Our inn offers a great variety of comfort food with lots of gluten free, vegetarian and vegan choices in a welcoming environment with a selection of fine ales and interesting brands such as Camden, Hawkstone and London Essence.
Join us and experience the heart of the New Forest.
Our Highlights
Traditionally comforting; We offer a warm, cosy, welcoming atmosphere likened to visiting your favourite Aunt, just without the hugs and kisses! Alongside the warm fuzziness we are proud to offer everything you expect from a traditional pub, just a little elevated.
Explore the unique offerings that make The Swan Inn a must-visit destination from seasonal dishes to hand selected local brews, each detail is considered with care.
Hearty comfort food
If you are seeking smears of puree on plates we probably aren't for you, however a proper plate of dinner without needing to visit the chippy on the way home - absolutely!
Cosy Ambiance
Enjoy a relaxing setting with rustic decor, perfect for family gatherings or intimate dinners. The Swan Inn has many cosy nooks and areas that are perfect for groups small or large, alongside a great garden to enjoy the sunshine.
Essentially English bar
Our bar features an extensive range of lagers, ales, wines, and spirits with lots of choice from Camden beers, Hawkstone beers, mainly Hampshire real ales, London Essence flavoured tonics and sodas, an extensive alcohol free range with lots of local spirits too. We are loving WTF wines, English and made from fruit. We think the gently sparkling strawberry wine will be fabulous enjoyed with fresh strawberry and mint in the garden.
There's always something different to try.
Warm Hospitality
Our friendly staff are dedicated to providing exceptional service to ensure a memorable visit. We believe the pub is all about the people and your visit is not just about stopping being hungry and thirsty!
