Excellent all round good menu selection, spacious room and attentive staff.
Great place to stay, easy for us to access Dorchester and Weymouth. Staff were all terrific, made the stay very welcoming. The room was lovely and comfortable (tiny bits of upkeep needed in the bathroom was my only point of feedback!) Would 100% recommend and stay again.
The staff were friendly and efficient The room was tastefully decorated and very clean although there were a couple of things could do with a tidy up and could do with some shelving in the bathroom. Food was excellent.
Breakfast was amazing. Beautiful room. Easy check-in process and a relaxed atmosphere.

Nice big room and en suite. However, the decoration could do with attention (peeling wall paper and bath panel) Lovely comfy bed and pillows. Tea/coffee, biscuits & water but these were not topped up for our second night stay.
The evening meal was excellent. Very comfortable beds and a great shower and bathroom. Breakfast was from 9am from a menu and therefore a relaxing start to the day.
Really nice pub just outside Dorchester. Friendly staff that were helpful. The food is simple, yet very tasty and the carvery on Sunday was an unexpected treat when we got back from a day out.
friendly welcome. very accommodating staff. comfy bed. clean and stylish room/bathroom. very good breakfast

Ideal for a brief stop.
A brief one night stay, very convenient. Comfortable & welcoming, nice light bathroom. On a busy road but little traffic at night. Just five rooms. Nice pub food.
Great place for a stopover on our way to Cornwall. Easy to find with easy parking and a good breakfast. Room was clean & tidy with a great shower!
It is located right on the A35 so if you’re looking for peace & quiet this may not be for you. We found it ok as we were exhausted from a long drive.
