To get to the gun inn wallk past the front of key haven yacht club then past the front of hurst castle sailing club then turn right down the road the gun is on your left. i took it you were looking for the pub and not keyhaven river?

[Noddy]

Thanks FT any advice on how to actually get to Keyhaven would be gratefully received. We will be coming from Calshot looking at the chart it is not clear?

Keyhaven is high tide only,head west past the beaulieu river and then Lymington,then aim for hurst castle,as you approach the beach,turn to starboard towards the shore between lymington and keyhaven.The channel should become apparent marked by buoys.

Thanks for the info folks - We actually only made it as far as Lymington as it got a bit too uncomfortable in the chop. We were made very welcome at Lymington Town Sailing Club who had an open day and we were allowed to tie up on one of their pontoons for the duration for nothing.
Will try The Gun another day.
