a coastal sunday worth staying for

Sundays in the bay

THE PIG-on the beach

Sundays, made for lingering

There's a roast on the 25 mile menu every Sunday, sometimes two, and what it is depends on the week, since our chefs write the menu on the morning around whatever the Kitchen Garden is ready to give. Beef one week, a free range pork belly the next, with roast potatoes, a Yorkie and gravy, and the fires lit on the days that need it.

Sitting high above the Jurassic coast with Old Harry Rocks out of the window, a plate of roast beef and the whole afternoon still ahead of you.

A long, easy Sunday over at ours

Make a day of it at THE PIG-on the beach

In our book, Sundays are the best day of the week – and, in our house, they’re not just about carving out a couple of hours for lunch. It’s the final full stop on the last 7 days and you deserve to slow down, unwind and enjoy every minute of it.

Take a pause and unplug with a gentle walk through the Kitchen Garden, eat well, linger afterwards (there’s no rush to have the table back here), and let the afternoon unfold naturally.

There’s no rush, no clock‑watching and no pressure to be anywhere else. Just good food, good company and a whole Sunday to enjoy it.

Start with salt air and sea views

Begin your Sunday with a walk along Studland Bay, feeling the sand underfoot and breathing in the sea air. Coastal paths and clifftop walks are right on the doorstep, making it easy to stretch your legs and build up an appetite before lunch.

A pre‑lunch pause

Back at our house, settle into the bar for a good glass of something. We’ll have the fires lit on the days that need it and the doors open onto the garden when the sun shows up – either way, it’s a relaxed moment to ease into the day and gather everyone together before heading to the table.

Take your time at the table

It’s the season of seriously good lunches outdoors, and our 25 mile menu is brimming with a new summer line-up of seasonal dishes and showstoppers that were made for sharing. Settle in and relax in the restaurant - our courses come gently and conversations stretch. This is the heart of the day - a proper feast from the 25 mile menu, best enjoyed with good wine and good company. 

Turn Sunday into a full reset

Turn Sunday into a proper escape with an overnight stay. Fall asleep to sea air, wake refreshed, and start Monday quietly - the way it should begin.
