About

The Coast Restaurant is fully air-conditioned with commanding views across Swanage Bay, offering fine dining with exciting and innovative cuisine, using fresh local produce where possible. 

In addition to our Coast Restaurant we offer an extensive Conservatory & Bar Menu. In the summer months enjoy Al Fresco dining in our beautiful gardens overlooking the Bay.

Our Head Chef Marek Ludwin is only too pleased to help wherever possible should you have any special dietary requirements. Advance notice is requested.

We are currently serving a local draft beer and a variety of lager, cider and keg bitter, in addition we have an extensive wine list for you to choose from.

Our Restaurants are open 7 days a week to non-residents for Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner or Afternoon Cream Tea or High Tea.
