One side is a traditional pub vibe, log burner and pool table, good beer etc and then restaurant on the other, a lot more modern looking but still with a traditional feel.

The apartment was beyond my expectations in every aspect. Excellent communication from the host in collecting keys. The apartment was very clean and tidy and was very well appointed. There is nothing I could fault. I loved the shower in the bathroom. The lounge area was certainly bigger than expected which was great. I would certainly stay here again and I think the apartment is suitable for both business travelers and people wanting to spend a holiday in Dorset. There are plenty of car parks nearby the property so I had no issue parking. The fact that they were free from 6pm to 8pm was certainly a bonus. The one I used was Durngate Street car park which is actually visible from the lounge and bedroom windows of the apartment. The parking spaces are narrow in Durngate Street car park but everyone that parked there did park nicely so I had no issues getting in and out the car.

If you’re looking for a quintessential English pub, this is it. Cozy,comfortable and delicious breakfast, lunch and dinner. The pub owners are rightly proud of their beautiful inn, reflected in the care and excellent service they provide their customers.

What Guests Said About Charminster:

    Charminster is a small village in Dorset.

    Charminster is a small village in Dorset. The village has a characteristic Old English atmosphere and is full of charming historic cottages. We ate at the Sun Inn and at The Gamekeeper - both are excellent. As long as you have a car, it's easy to get around. For us the best activity in Charminster was walking.

    Charminster is only a small village and the only facility is...

    Charminster is only a small village and the only facility is the Sun Inn which was excellent for evening meals. The Inn is only a short distance from Little Court. Charminster is only a short distance from Dorchester which has a lot of facilities both attractions and places to eat. It was unfortunate that during our stay the road into Dorchester was closed due to roadworks and the diversion route was quite long.

    All staff very friendly & helpful; breakfasts offer the usual good options including 'full English'. You have complete flexibility regarding access to the hotel. My dog (a Border Collie) slept in the car as he normally does when away from home. I exercised him in the extensive garden morning and evening. Excellent evening meals are available at The Sun Inn, 10 minutes walk down the road. The photo is of Little Court and walking on the Iron Age fort, Maiden Castle This was an enjoyable visit.

    The bed was the most comfortable of all the hotel beds I have ever slept in. Seriously snooze-worthy. Amanda's check-in is quick and takes seconds. There was no check-out: I just left!. Very laid-back. Good breakfast served cheerfully. Spacious bathroom.
