Situated on Chesil Beach with excellent sea views. Popular with divers and sailors especially at weekends. Sit outside if the weather is kind or, if not, by the fire watching the storms hit the beach - the shutters on the lower windows are not purely decorative. Bar billiard table. Summer hours detailed - more restricted in winter.
