Who are Chestnut?

We are a group of stunning pubs and big houses located in the East Anglia area and we are continuously growing whilst staying true to our values. We are proud but humble and are always looking to do the best we can for our people. Our team members are at the heart of who we are, this is why we offer a variety of hours to suit our team members and their personal commitments.

The Lifeboat

The Lifeboat is a classic inn; step through our door and you can feel the history that is soaked into the very timbers of the building. Order a drink at a bar which has served guests for generations, sit by the fireplace which has kept winter’s chill at bay through the ages, and enjoy the same welcoming atmosphere that has existed here for centuries. We serve excellent traditional food, a great selection of ales, wines and spirits, and have sixteen special rooms where you can spend a night or two in comfort. 

We’re set on the very edge of Thornham village, overlooking the fields and beautifully unspoilt expanses of salt marshes. This unique landscape changes throughout the year and is a haven for wildlife – away from the inn often the only thing you’ll hear is the sound of birds, and the waves rolling on to the nearby beach. We’re an oasis of calm in an increasingly busy world - visit us and feel the peace and tranquility around you.
