About us

Nestled in the village of Winkton, The Fisherman's Haunt is a delightful country pub right on the edge of the New Forest and a stone's throw from the historic town of Christchurch and award winning beaches. Eat, drink and even stay the night courtesy of 13 lovely guest rooms.

With one of the best-stocked bars around, you’ll be spoiled for choice when it comes to choosing a tipple at The Fisherman’s Haunt.

There’s outstanding cask conditioned ale here, including London Pride on tap, plus a superb selection of craft lagers from all over the world.

Our fine wines are similarly well sourced, from vineyards the world over, and there’s a great collection of spirits here too, including a number of excellent gins.

For that special celebration meanwhile, or a toast to a weekend away perhaps, we can also mix you a superb cocktail.

So, what’ll it be?

Book in for lunch or dinner at The Fisherman’s Haunt to experience delicious dishes freshly prepared from the finest seasonal ingredients. Menus here change with the season, but there’s always a firm focus on fish dishes - alongside country classics, chef’s signature dishes and a range of homemade desserts.

As keen supporters of local food, our team of chefs use locally sourced produce wherever possible, with suppliers including Laverstoke Farm and Owton’s family butchers.

And if you’re staying with us, you’ll sample some of the New Forest's finest ingredients in our brilliant breakfasts too - the ideal way to start a day's exploration following a good night’s sleep.

I went on a Monday evening with a friend, we both enjoyed our meals, helpful, friendly service. Good pint of London Pride too. Menu was a bit limited, another vegetarian option would have been good, maybe a pasta dish.

Really good welcome and service from a nice team in a very relaxed atmosphere. Loved the bar with a good fire and fab food. Room was clean, modern and warm whilst it was a freezing January night outside. Very dog friendly - and that was clearly an attraction as there were quite a few at breakfast! Breakfast very good BTW.

Stayed recently for 3 nights. Room was very nice, comfortable & warm. The staff were lovely, we were always greeted with a smile. Nothing was too much trouble. Sunday lunch was very nice. Same old desserts though on the menu that everyone seems to have. Sticky toffee pudding & warm chocolate brownie & ice cream. Not a lot of options. Bar was cold on two nights, we sat with our coats on, there was a log fire but that wasn't lit. Having said that, its a lovely place to stay & would stay again. Put some candles on the tables to help with 'ambience' & offer chocolate mints when giving the bill would give it a nicer touch. We'll done The Fishermans Haunt & thank you for a nice stay.

We stayed for one night as we were going to buy a car near by. We had a warm welcome when we arrived. The bar and restaurant were very comfortable and staff incredibly friendly. Our room was beautiful. Lovely and clean and warm and the bed was super comfy. We will definitely be going back, thank you! x
