Festive Season at The Bell Inn
Christmas in the New Forest is truly magical. At The Bell Inn, it’s our favourite time of year. We love welcoming everyone from the Christmas office party to family festive get togethers and the ladies who lunch. We even host our own Christmas party!
Our chef has created the best Christmas menu, with indulgent 2 or 3 course options that include traditional Christmas dinner, tasty alternatives and special vegan and vegetarian Christmas menus. And, if you stay with us over the Christmas holidays, then you’re in for a treat!
If you want to stay in the New Forest this Christmas, our cosy coaching inn is perfect for a festive hotel break. Dogs are welcome as well so you can enjoy Christmas in Hampshire with crisp walks in the forest and strolls on the beach. The perfect Christmas festive break for you and your furry friends.

Festive Dining & Christmas Day Lunch
Our indulgent festive menu is served throughout December and includes vegan, vegetarian and gluten free options. Choose from 2 or 3 courses of amazing food made with the best local New Forest products.
Our Christmas Lunch menu is a 5-course taste sensation. A 5-course celebration of Christmas in the New Forest. Luxurious ingredients sourced from the best local suppliers will make your Christmas Day one to remember. The Roast Hampshire Turkey with all the trimmings is a firm favourite, but perhaps you will be tempted away from the traditional main course by a Beef Wellington, or stuffed Sea Bass with lobster sauce or a vegetarian Haggis en Croute? The 5-course Christmas set menu costs £130 pp.

Served between 12 and 4pm our Christmas Lunch is a 5-course delight. And don’t worry – dogs are welcome to join you in the celebrations. If you’re still peckish then pop down for our festive platters of local meats and cheeses served from 6-8pm.
