About The Lightship

Formerly known as the Mary Mouse 2, this lovingly restored 1940s lightship originally served as the guiding light for ships travelling along the Portsmouth coast. And today, this beautiful ship is docked just in the Haslar Marina, and drifts through a canvas of sky and sea, where reveals Portsmouth Harbour’s beauty at every turn.

Anchored in view of Old Portsmouth and watched over by the Spinnaker’s graceful reach, The Lightship whispers stories through every sunlit deck and shadowed corner.

Capacity of 80 guests for a sat down meal & 200 for standing! Let the evening begin with twilight cocktails above, before drifting below to savour dishes crafted with care and finesse!
