The Dolphin Hotel, Littlehampton

The Dolphin is an old coaching inn dating back to 1735. In the summer of 1806 the poet Lord Byron stayed at the Dolphin Hotel and supposedly nearly drowned as he was swimming in the nearby River Arun. The Dolphin would appear to be haunted by several different ladies and some ghostly children which have been seen and heard.

The Dolphin Hotel is the home of the Littlehampton Investigative Ghost Hunting Team (LIGHT), who also hold public paranormal investigation evenings on the premises, though booking is essential.
