The Avon Causeway

The Avon Causeway is a beautiful traditional pub with rooms, built in the 19th century as a conversion of the Hurn railway station, near Christchurch in Dorset.

Whether you’re travelling for business or enjoying a South Coast staycation, the Avon Causeway is an ideal place to stay, with 12 modern and comfortable ensuite rooms.

If you’re feeling hungry, we offer delicious seasonal food and drink, served in both our restaurant space and The Pullman – our front garden train carriage.

Behind the bar, you’ll find a wide range of real ale, craft beer, lager and cider from our award-winning brewery, Butcombe, and a cocktail menu with all the classics.

In the warmer months, you can enjoy a refreshing pint in our courtyard beer garden while the kids have fun in our children’s play area, and when the weather turns colder, you can cosy up by our open fire indoors.

If you’re planning an event, The Pullman – a mid-20th century decommissioned train carriage – is available for private hire for weddings, meetings, parties, and other private functions.

Located on the edge of the New Forest, within easy reach of Ringwood and Bournemouth International Airport, we make the perfect base for exploring the New Forest and Dorset surroundings.

The Avon Causeway is proud to be dog-friendly, child-friendly and wheelchair-accessible.

Free parking is available for hotel customers (1 night minimum stay applies) travelling to Bournemouth airport for up to 1 week  – after this period we charge £5 per day. Vehicles are parked at owner’s risk.
