Welcome to Under the Hull at the Cutty Sark!
Built in 1869 to carry tea back from China, this monument to the glory days of sail travelled the world and survived the high seas. The ship boasts a spectacular riverside setting, with a sweeping outlook across the Thames to the city beyond. Entertaining on Cutty Sark is a truly exclusive experience, with four superb locations for evening events.
Under the Hull is a modern space built after the refurbishment of Cutty Sark’s fire in 2007. The ship, all 963 tonnes, is dramatically suspended 3 metres above the floor, Cutty Sark is the only original ship in the world where guests can dine and entertain underneath. Her geodesic glass canopy, floods the dock with natural daylight, whilst built in lighting makes her copper clad hull glimmer in the evening. This is our largest space and is perfect for conferences, dining, drinks reception and dancing late into the evening
