About us

The Dunstan House Inn is a fantastic pub with rooms, situated in the heart of the local community. We're all about the good things, nostalgic British food, real ale, wines from around the world and an enviable range of gins. Our team are ambitious, positive and all about putting our guests first. Upstairs, there are six stunning en-suite guest bedrooms, and we're just a stone's throw from the gorgeous seaside and town centre.

In the Summer we're bustling, we've got the best beer garden around and all day sunshine, with an outdoor bar and our coveted burger shack serving up proper burgers all season long. In the Winter, we transform into a cosy winter retreat, with roaring log fires, candles simmering and hearty pub classics served from our talented kitchen team all week long.

We love to see our team grow their skills and develop their career whilst they are with us, and actively encourage our team to partake in as much training as possible.
