The Frampton Arms was built in the 1840’s by the local land owning family, The Frampton’s. It was built to coincide with the opening of the railway in the area and was a favourite of the RAF who were stationed locally. Serving al-fresco dining in their terrace area and restaurant, they offer fresh and tasty locally sourced ingredients.

Situated on the cliff tops of the South West Coast Path, just outside the village of Osmington, the Smugglers Inn is a traditional English pub with stunning views overlooking the Isle of Portland.

Steeped in history, the Inn was the headquarters of the French smuggler Pierre Latour and one of the main landing places for smuggled goods in the 17th century.

With a beautiful garden for summer, as well as roaring log fires and oak beams inside for the longer and colder winter nights, the Smugglers can be truly enjoyed all year round.

Situated in a breath-taking part of Dorset, looking out over Chesil Beach. The Crab House Cafe has its own Portland Oyster beds just a stones-throw from the restaurant, meaning you can enjoy fresh oysters within minutes of them leaving the water.

Other than their popular crab boards, the menu features delicious fish and seafood recipes, all from produce landed within 40 miles.

Nuzzled on the edge of the Isle of Purbeck, Shell Bay overlooks the stunning Brownsea Island and waters of Poole Harbour and Sandbanks. It started life as a shack and retains an appealingly rustic feel – and the terrace is a real hit come summer. Every table has a view and the twice daily menu showcases local seafood in a mix of modern and classic dishes. Booking highly recommended.
