Avon Causeway Inn in Christchurch

Arrived too late for sandwiches but ordered from the starters and light bite menu. Previously the sandwiches were brilliant. The pulled pork taco was no good for me as I am coeliac, but I was told I could have it on gluten free bread. When it came I was horrified! One piece of sliced bread with the crusts cut off and a small quenelle of pulled pork. My Husbands was similar except more bread. We wrote an email and have yet to have a reply

Characterful pub/restaurant/hotel in the country. very close to Hurn airport and therefore access by private transport only. Very nice snack menu, very attentive staff with special mention for Amelia. Kitchen doing a grand job with food cooked very thoughtfully. Priced accordingly. Lots of tabled with some in private areas An added bonus is the Pullman restaurant carriage from c1960. This is on one of the railways scandalously butchered by Beeching in the 1950's.

We booked last minute and asked for some changes to the room. My partner has a spinal cord injury. The team accommodated us with no problems. Our trip was sadly due to a family member passing away and we had to arrange the funeral etc… Amanda, Sarah and the team went out of their way to make us feel welcome and well cared for. They went above and beyond for us and even offered us the use of their washing machine. Food is delicious, a big improvement on how it was last time my partner visited about 12 years ago. Breakfast is high quality and the rooms have bottled water, filter coffee and fresh milk is provided as and when you need it. Thanks guys for making this hard time a bit more bearable! Very much appreciated, we will be returning.

This was the first time I had been here for about 40 years. All those years ago it was quite rough and ready but full of character. Sometimes changes happen for the better. Not so here, as all the character has been wiped out. The welcome was very poor, and we felt we were an inconvenience to be served, once the female server appeared. No dimpled handles were available, so a straight handle was supplied. My pint of Butcome Original was a reasonable temperature, my wife's small Guinness was as expected. However, the price for both was much higher than anticipated. A local visitor was stood waiting at the bar to be served for a very long time. Our tub chairs were filthy and need a deep clean. On our departure, I returned our glasses to the bar, whereby an anorak wearing woman was serving the local gent, there was no acknowledgement to me, no goodbye, no thanks, no nothing. A dismal experience and I won't be rushing back ( possibly another 40 years ! ). Why do people work in these environments if they are NOT happy doing so, get something else

Great hotel with lovely staff. Breakfast was great and was included which is always a bonus. We stayed for one night and had a dog with us. Was very dog friendly and she was allowed everywhere with us. Would definitely stay again.

If you’re looking for somewhere welcoming and clean and comfortable, this is the place. Sarah was amazing, helpful, friendly and nothing was too much trouble. Great to have somewhere you can have dogs with you, apart from the restaurant naturally…. Food was great, especially breakfast… sausages for Rubes too….looking forward to returning in a few weeks C, J and Ruby 🐾

We stayed for second time. The Pros and Cons..... Pros Very comfortable beds Pleasant staff Good cooked breakfast Easy parking Clean Strategic location Plenty of room sockets Hot water at all times Controllable radiator Plenty of hangers Fair price Cons No cereals for breakfast No toilet brush (not very pleasant for your partner). The evening food menu is weird and is the reason why we didn’t eat there much. The menu needs more straightforward items such as pate or breaded mushrooms, risotto etc. It is very difficult to find something that you actually want to eat. It was the same for both of us on both visits 6 years apart.

After walking with my family and Fred their dog we popped in to have a drink before heading home. Service was fabulous. The pub was warm, friendly and busy with friendly people and a few dogs. The landlady came to see how we all were and Fred enjoyed his doggy treats. All dogs were offered a little treat. This country pub is very welcoming and I know they do food and they have rooms but I personally have not eaten here but my brother said the food is lovely.

We stayed for 2 nights, check in very easy, room very clean and bed comfortable. Bathroom small but adequate, no bath just a shower. Good tea and coffee facilities provided also fresh milk. We had dinner on the 1st night which was very nice and there was a nice atmosphere in the pub/restaurant area. Breakfast both mornings was very good with a very wide choice to choose from. The doggy guests were also well looked after. Amanda and Sarah are very helpful and are very sociable with the guests and take great care in looking after them while staying at the Avon Causeway, we would definitely return.

The Avon Causeway proved to be a really good choice for our weekend away celebrating my partner's recent birthday. The staff were so polite, friendly and helpful throughout the stay, and we enjoyed many chats with most of them. The food we experienced at breakfast time and the evening were very well cooked, and extremely tasty. The rooms being well stocked, and the bed very comfortable. Amanda and Sarah run a very good ship indeed. I would recommend a stay at the Avon Causeway Hotel to anyone.

I have visited the Avon Causeway since October with 8 of my mum friends with our babies. At first we were made to feel very welcome when our babies were newborn. However, recently the level of service we have received has really deteriorated. On Wednesday, a member of staff was particularly rude to me. I made the manager aware and I’m afraid to say the manager’s response was also incredibly poor. Despite always leaving the pub tidy and ensuring our babies do not disturb other guests here, we have been made to feel most unwelcome and will not be returning. If you are planning on visiting here with young babies, be warned you will not be made to feel welcome!

The staff can be unfriendly and unwelcoming, which is a shame as it could be a lovely spot. The food is nice although quite expensive.

We chose the Avon Causeway Pub because it was dog friendly. We loved seeing the Pullman linked to the side of the Avon Causeway Pub when we drive into the carpark. It was warm and cosy inside. The landlady Amanda was very friendly and made us feel really welcome. The staff made a fuss of our dog and gave him treats. The menu had so many tasty things on offer it was difficult to choose. I had the crab cakes with chunky chips, my daughter had the vegan pie and my son in law had a burger with fries. All three of us were blown away as it was the tastiest meal we had eaten in a very long time. Have to say as an 86 year old that it was great to receive excellent customer service which nowadays seems to be the exception and not the rule. We will be sure to call again when we are back in the area and will recommend it to everyone. It was a real treat for my daughter who usually has very limited choices as a vegan. All round it was top notch and a wonderful experience. Thanks Amanda and the rest of the staff!

My wife and I celebrated my birthday at the hotel on a bed and breakfast basis.The hotel is dog friendly, we took our 2 dogs along with us. Amanda and Sarah were most welcoming, I made an error in my booking, I asked for a certain room, when I pointed out my mistake, Amanda was most accommodating and moved us to the room we wanted, couldn’t have been made easier. Breakfast experience was very good, the dogs got there own dishes! The hotel is close to good long dog walks, also not far from Christchurch and Bournemouth, all in all a very friendly hotel, good food and very nice staff

What a find and what a great-break, room was great, the team took great care of us and the food was amazing we couldn’t fault anything we will be back.

Booked Sunday lunch for 8 people, we were squashed into a table near the door to the garden, was barely any room between us and the table next door, it was also unbearably hot! Whilst the staff were lovely, I felt that being tucked around the corner was a disadvantage to us as I think we may have been forgotten and on a couple of occasions had to search for a member of staff! The majority of us ordered Sunday roasts which I have ordered before and enjoyed but on this occasion it was not as good, the roast potatoes were dry as was the chicken the roasties were tasteless, the beef & veg were nice. We love a roast but on this occasion was not up to scratch. Sort you roasties out and we’ll be back!

We eat here regularly in the evenings as food, beer and service are all so good. It was a real treat to come here for Sunday lunch: we had a selection of roasts, burgers and pasta and everything was delicious! With the Butcombe Loyalty Card there are many offers, so it is worth signing up to benefit. Thank you Sarah, Colin and team for indulging us!

Been to the Avon Causeway a few times. I have never been disappointed with the food or staff. The guys there are always polite and helpful and the food plentiful and superbly cooked and presented. Try a bowl of cheesy chips and some garlic bread. Delicious. Great pub :)

We cannot praise enough lovely spot great people and food and accommodation faultless thank you for making our break so relaxing

Unfortunately there was only one vegan meal options, no vegan options for sandwiches and no alternatives to dairy milk for coffee. Not great for a pub on this size. Disappointed.

All the staff were friendly and welcoming. The decoration was very appropriate for the age of the building and its history. The food and service were excellent. We will definitely be returning.

We booked a pre Christmas lunch menu meal for our family - 7 persons. From the booking to arrival, service and food all was excellant. The food was first class, as was the service, amazing. Big thankyou for making our family lunch a real Christmas...

Have stayed here several times and the staff are always friendly and welcoming. The rooms are spotless and well appointed with tea/coffee/water and fresh milk. Added bonus are fluffy white towels in the bathroom. The breakfast was excellent especially the sausages! We had an evening...

I visited the Avon Causeway for some lunch today with some friends. The staff were friendly! But the food wasn’t so great! The bread for the sandwiches were stale! And not much filling him then. And the food is extremely pricey for what you get!

A dissapointing visit today. The staff were very friendly but the food was poor. 3 of us had roast chicken where there were more bones than chicken. 3 of us had beef which was very tough which my 96 year old father in law could...

Just returned from two night stay, staff couldn't have been more polite, professional and friendly. evening meals and breakfast were both freshly cooked, tasty and good value. Mollie Dog loved her breakfast both mornings and was thoroughly spoilt. highly recommended

Good welcome and good breakfast. Room quite big and clean and tidy. Very noisy dual carriage a few metres away meaning it was difficult to sleep.

There were 9 of us for lunch, were give a nice table drinks order taken - found staff friendly and helpful - food was very tasty we had different things and everyone was pleased with meal. Will certainly visit again.

Very disappointing! Roast beef, almost inedible would be a contender to sole your shoes! Staff not really interested in our complaint and if I hadn't mentioned the awful meat when I went to settle the bill I wouldn't have been offered a reduction in price....

We needed a break from packing up our house. Decided on here for a meal. Had to wait a little before someone came to take our drinks and food order considering it wasn't busy. They don't do coca cola, offered Pepsi max instead, revolting stuff....

We have just had a fantastic stay at this lovely hotel. We booked due to proximity of the airport and couldn't have found anywhere better. We arrived early afternoon and enjoyed a delicious meal before we checked in. Our room was just perfect with everything...

Poor beer and over priced Prosecco . Best to avoid this pub.if you want value for money.Would not visit again far better pubs nearby.

The rooms were lovely, the staff were amazing, breakfast was tasty. But, we arrived 6.30pm on a Sunday to be told they had stopped serving food at 5.30pm and the bar was closing at 7pm. Has we known this , we wouldn't have booked our...

The Avon Causeway is a great pub, beautifully decorated throughout, very spacious, with a nice railway theme. Being the old Hurn station of course. The menu is a little limited on choice and this is the same with all hostelries run by Butcombe. The daytime...

We spent four nights visiting the New Forest with our Spaniel Harvey. The location is very good for access to the forest only a few miles away and Harvey had a fantastic time on his first holiday. The staff are great and made us very...

We went for a family Sunday Lunch.The setting and ambiance is excellent,and easy car parking. The lunch was awful. The waitress was very pleasant but very inexperienced.Two of the party had roast pork which was inedible and the presentation just dreadful. A great pile of...

1 night stay breakfast was awful. The egg was like rubber, the toast was like wood you couldn't bite into. Surroundings were lovely. Service was to slow and laided back.

I went with my mother and aunt. I ordered using the app and my aunt went inside to order for herself and my mum. I was brought my roast pretty quick and my aunt came out to tell us she was told they are not...

Great location for getting into Bournemouth and Christchurch. Very comfortable rooms and relaxed dining service.

I enjoyed my food (when it arrived), although I believe not all of my party were so keen. But the service was abysmal. We ordered drinks which took a long time coming (the place was not busy). When they arrived the girl spilt my wife's...

Stayed here for 4 nights in May 2023 with family. First like to say the The Avon Causeway in Hurn was very clean and tidy with a lot of charactor to it and in a lovely location. But then our first morning going down for...

As you turn off of the main road to a slip road you approach a large grand archway above the entrance to the car park. The initial impression is very good and the building gives it a definite ‘wow factor’. Inside we were greeted at...

Had lovely roast dinner, very reasonably priced Interesting history of the pub Service good and friendly Clean bathrooms

Another super Butcombe pub! The service is excellent - very helpful, friendly staff. The specials are a great addition to the basic menu. Always plenty of parking.We have had a number of functions here and the staff have always been so helpful. Long serving and...

Discovered Avon Causeway by chance. Stayed overnight before our flight from Bournemouth airport early the next morning. Very comfortable room, delicious meal washed down with an excellent pint of Butcombe bitter. We'll definitely be back.

Lovely hotel, whose staff who gave excellent service. Hotel rooms are comfortable and well appointed with exceptional refreshment options. Good restaurant food, and an excellent breakfast included. Railway memorabilia decorating this ex-railway station. Adjacent is a railway carriage for private hire special occasions. Hotel is...

We were a family party of five here for lunch on Friday 17 February. It's an interesting venue will ample parking which draws well on its former status which included use as a railway station. Lots of information on the history and a layout which...

The menu was limited and lacked style, food was good but not exceptional, service was ok but atmosphere was cold with not many diners, I am sure it was the time of year albeit it was a glorious February day.

Although quite spacious and welcoming, with clean facilities, I find the menu confusing for Re seems to be a lack of clarification from the barmaids when a patron orders. This is very easily rectified by clarifying at the point of taking orders, whether the patron...

Sunday lunch with my large family, all had different meals, all were hot and of an outstanding quality. The young children cleared their plates. Restaurant was clean and tidy, everywhere was presentable. Staff , as ever, polite and helpful, and all had time to talk,...

Booked sunday roast lunch as the angus beef looked the part on website. What arrived was not medium rare as stated on menu,it was well done and difficult to cut and chewy.The roast potatoes were very hard to the extent that when my partner tried...

6 of us met for lunch. We have been friends for 50 years (!) and meet quite often to catch up. Decided on Avon Causeway, as their gammon and two eggs is superb, not on menu for Sundays, so 4 had the excellent roasts, and...

Really a nice setting has been decorated well Service was ok waitress pleasant however no one came to take out dessert order Food very average had the pork roast, meat was fairy dry crackling was soft - roast potatoes were really poor

We had a lovely stay, the food and drink was excellent, the room very comfortable, and we were especially impressed with the staff, everyone was nice and helpful but Sarah was someone who made our visit especially special.

This is the old Hurd rail station converted into a pub complete with dining rail carriage outside. Its a large space with a good bar area and garden areas you can bring your dog. We walked through the heathland of St Catherine’s Hill to get...

We visited on the fourteenth sept for lunch. Chose the "SPECIAL" fish pie from the board. By the time we placed our order it had risen by £3.00 between board and bar! Service charge was applied whilst we paid at the bar!! To cap it...

Amazing, the service exceeded expectation the young lady was charming and very helpful despite the fact that I asked a lot of questions she cheerfully went to and from the kitchen to gain the answers. The food was wonderful the Sunday dinner topside of beef...

An interesting lunch, not been here for a long time. Started oddly tbh there was very little on the menu we actually fancied. We wanted a snacky lunch but just didn’t fancy most of what was on offer but we both plumped eventually for the...

My daughter ordered a Sunday roast on too good to go, and when she played it up, there was a caterpillar dead in the food. Contacted Avon Causeway to complain, but they were not interested at all. Would never recommend anyone to eat here.

We hosted an event for 30+ guests in the Pullman Carriage, which has recently been refurbished. It was a brilliant evening throughout - delicious 3-course set menu (veggie wellington was a particular hit!), attentive and friendly staff, good selection of drinks and a really unique...

What a nice little gem in Christchurch, skeptical at first as we have not been to this place but it was really good place to eat and to chill especially with children, we thought it’s going to be noisy as it’s near the dual carriageway...

We visited Avon Causeway for a Fathers Day meal due to the excellent reviews online and we were not disappointed. Great atmosphere and staff very friendly. We opted for the roast meals which were very tasty. Good selection on menu. We will definitely return!

I visited the Avon Causeway with my husband and baby for one night. When you pull up in the car park, the hotel looks great, modern but with an old train on show with it being an old station which was a lovely touch. Check...

Lovely setting , Food very good but prices are shocking , when it costs more for a bottle of Prosecco at a pub in Hurn than in Terminal 2 at Heathrow (£27 Avon , £26 Heathrow) then something is clearly wrong , and £5.10 for...

This is our third visit to this converted railway station with lots of character and has comfortable ensuite rooms which are spotlessly clean. Friendly and helpful staff. The food was excellent with a good variety menu. They cater for all dietary needs and allergies.

Enjoyed a good Sunday lunch at this recently re-furbished pub/restaurant/hotel. Service was friendly and efficient and food was good with generous portions. Did not stay over so cannot review room quality but would advise if you want to stay, then try to secure a room...

As a guest at a birthday party, I must say that the atmosphere was just right. The food was excellent, and so was the service. I can't think of any cons. The conversion of an old train station made this place unique and full of...

Really enjoyed our two night stay in this converted railway station that had some lovely historical touches. Excellent room, food and staff. But it was the little things that mattered like the room tv was actually on a stand at a sensible height and not...

Popped into the newly refurbished pub after a brisk walk in Hurn Forest. The pub is looking amazing and the new menu is extensive. Almost all of the items are gluten free (although you have to ask. They need to be more confident in writing...

This was actually booked by a friend of ours, so we weren't sure what to expect. When we arrived it looked like a small place but beautifully set amongst the trees. The staff were very helpful, polite and happy to help in any way. The...

Pleasantly surprised by the very friendly young waiting staff and I believe the landlady. Roast beef was a HUGE plate of food. The meat and gravey were great as was the good selection of plated vegeatables. Roast potatoes were a bit hard and tasted like...

Four of us visited this restaurant last week for lunch. The food was excellent but what made it for us was the attitude of the staff. They were friendly, efficient and made us feel so welcome. We had a laugh and a joke with them...

Hotel was booked to give my wife a rest and it turned out to be a brilliant time the staff were brilliant they made us feel at home straight away they made a fuss of our dog even giving her treats on arrival the food...

Desperate to find a room for the night, we had the luck to find The Avon. Friendly, warm, and comfortable. Great food (try the homemade pork pie), and a terrific atmosphere. Thoroughly recommended. (The breakfast was awesome too!)

Excellent service and friendly staff. Had a breakfast it was good quality food. Room was clean and cosy. Dog friendly and clean area no dog hair in the area.

Excellent hotel, so clean, dog friendly but not a hair in site. Lovely room, staff friendly nothing too much trouble. Had evening meal and 2 breakfasts. All food lovely high standard. Will definitely stay here again and again.

Lovely greeting from the Landlady on arrival and continued service throughout! Great food and a complimentary surprise too! Thankyou for taking good care of us, we shall visit again soon.

Stayed for just one night and found this to be a very friendly and welcoming hotel/pub. Rooms were very clean and beds comfy. Nothing was too much trouble, we traveled as a family group including 2 children and a dog. All were totally spoiled and...

A 3 generation 1 night family break with 2 cocker spaniels in and around the New Forest was spent here. The folks at the hotel could not do enough to make sure our stay was an enjoyable as possible, especially as one of our dogs...

We enjoyed a lovely evening meal at the Avon Causeway pub. Our food was well presented, with a delicious combination of flavours. The staff were polite, helpful and friendly, which added to our enjoyment of the evening. We will definitely be returning soon.

Stayed three nights over the New Year period 2021 in room 1 and can say the experience was excellent. Staff were friendly and helpful , the premises is an old railway station and they have their own steam train and carriages ( doesn’t move but...

Where do I start! The Avon Causeway was amazing in all aspects, from pre-check in to an email pre-check out on the morning of departure with a breakdown off all your spends. On arrival we were shown to our room with a small pre-chilled flask...

We enjoyed a lovely Christmas get together with friends at the Avon Causeway. There's an extensive menu to choose from, including a good selection of specials. The food was well presented and very tasty, and the staff were friendly and attentive. I'd recommend them to...

As people local to the area and have previously visited before Butcombe took it over we are very disappointed. It used to be a busy pub with good food and friendly staff. It’s not longer that.

We visited the Avon Causeway for lunch with our children and grandchildren for lunch. Whilst the restaurant was quiet and appeared to be fully staffed, the service was slow and our table was sticky. We ordered the ‘extra’ of bacon with the beef burger which...

Well this was a real surprise! I have never stayed in a Railway Station that had been converted into a Hotel. This was a wonderful find. A bit like The Railway Children meets The Ritz. All the staff were wonderfully helpful The check- in took...

Just had an early dinner at The Avon Causeway my only disappointment is that I haven’t found this little gem of a place before! The food was excellent and value for money, the pub itself has a lovely warm atmosphere. The staff are incredibly welcoming...

Stayed one night during half term with family and dog. Very friendly welcome on arrival. Lovely clean rooms. We ate in the restaurant that evening and the food was delicious and nice selection of ales.Breakfast was included which was also very nice and even provided the dog with here own sausage, black pudding and egg bowl.There was a nice walk opposite which takes you into Christchurch.A lovely friendly hotel which would would stay at again

Our room was very clean snd comfortable. Really nice to have plenty of fresh milk and decent tea & coffee with a cafetière. Also home made cookies waiting for us. Great food in the evening and a really nice breakfast. Just chilled and easy. The dog was made welcome with her own bowl and treats and a cooked breakfast in the morning. Very friendly and helpful staff and a nice location. The old railway track (see photo) runs through miles of woodland so great for walking the dog. The only negative was it’s near a busy road so you can hear traffic at night but that wouldn’t stop me staying again.

As a former railway station, this hotel has style. The food was well prepared and good quality. Like all good restaurants, you have to wait a bit as the food is prepared to order.

We ate in here recently and mistakenly were only given the gluten free menu. However, this time we returned with a coeliac member of the family and it was a great evening. She had the (gluten free) beer-battered fish and chips and said it was the first time in 20 years she had had it. She ate every bit. The place seems to have turned a corner since Butcombe took it over, so I urge people to try it.

When I booked a table for a Wednesday night for my family, I was not expecting it to come with its own entertainment that would rival a Fawlty Towers episode.First let me say the front of house was excellent and did a good job in very difficult circumstances. The table was booked for 7PM and when we arrived the pub was very busy. We were shown to out table and a drinks order taken. He drinks arrived and the waitress said she would be back shortly to take the food order. Upon taking the order she told us there was about a 30 minute wait for food as the kitchen was so busy. This was not a problem and it was nice to be informed. The starters arrived and were very good. If you are a person who likes a substantial starter then these are not for you but that does not take away from the quality of the food. You will not be disappointed with either the potted chicken rillette, smoked bacon, grilled sourdough, cucumber chutney or Severn & Wye beetroot-cured smoke salmon, horseradish and dill creme fraiche and pickled fennel.From here the evening went downhill. The waitress cleared out plates and after about 10 minutes asked if we were ready for the main course. I am not sure I have ever been asked that before. Normally the kitchen would know what time to leave between guests’ courses. The restaurant had run out of stock for one of the items on the menu so we ordered a burger, spinach and ricotta ravioli and chalk stream trout fishcakes, Café de Paris butter sauce, spinach, poached Clarence Court egg. I also had a side order of chips. The order took some time to arrive, hardly surprising as there was less than harmony in the kitchen. Indeed, this was the closest that the chef got to ‘Gordon Ramsey’ judging by the amount of swearing coming from the kitchen. The waitress appeared and apologised if we had heard the bad language.The mains arrived although the side order seemed to be forgotten and the waitress had to be reminded. The burger I am told was good as was the ravioli but the chef had definitely taken it out on my trout fishcakes. The were swimming in a pool of butter sauce, but this did not make up for the fact that they were dry. In addition, the poached egg was like a hard boiled egg and so the thought of that lovely yoke running down over the fishcake was never going to happen.It is very rare that I return food, but this was one of those occasions. It was dealt with efficiently and I was asked if I wanted to choose something else from the menu. I declined as there is nothing worse than waiting for another dish to arrive, by which time the rest of your diners have finished theirs. Yes, the waitress said I would not be charged for mine, small consultation for a ruined meal with the family. To be honest I had no intention of paying for the fishcakes anyway. I do not pay for food that is not of a standard. It all seemed a of going through a routine and no empathy for the fact that it is not only about the meal but about the occasion as well. So, the rating here is based on the whole experience and not just the quality of the majority of the food. Nothing can make up for a ruined occasion, but some effort would have been appreciated. As to if I would eat here again, yes, as everybody deserves a second chance, but only if I am around and about the area, not as an occasion with friends and or family.

Lovely hotel Found it on Trip Advisor, lovely hotel a lot of caractor & history really nice touch to have breakfast in the carriage, great choice and all freshly cooked would definately recommend and return.staff were lovely and the beds really comfy
