The Jolly Sailor is situated beside the River Hamble in the small village of Old Bursledon. Built in about 1750, it was owned by the Church for 200 years prior to being sold to a private brewer in about 1950. It was then bought by Hall & Woodhouse in 1982 until the present day. This very popular destination food house has two inglenook fireplaces which are lit in winter, flagstone floors, floorboards and beams giving it a traditional ambience with a nautical theme. The layout is open plan in the bar area with a more private restaurant. You can dine in the bar area or restaurant and table bookings can be made for the restaurant. We offer Gastro style dining, with an extensive range of dishes all freshly prepared and cooked to order using regional produce, British and Mediterranean choices. There is extensive outdoor seating by the river and we are proud of the friendly, courteous service we offer and the warm and inviting atmosphere created in this relaxed part of the world. The River Hamble is a river in Hampshire, England. It rises near Bishop's Waltham and flows for some 7.5 miles (12 km) through Botley, Bursledon and Swanwick before entering Southampton Water near Hamble-le-Rice and Warsash. The Hamble is tidal for approximately half its length and is navigable in its lower reaches, which have facilitated shipbuilding activities since medieval times. Leisure craft are still built there today.
One of these builders was Luke & co, later Luke Bros, a reputed yard at Hamble from around 1890 to 1945.
The river, and its shipbuilding yards, have also been used for military purposes, particularly during World War II.
Its lower reaches are now very popular for boating, being known throughout the sailing world as The Heart of British Yachting
