One of my favourite places to stay when I go and visit family and friends where I grew up. Very friendly landlord and staff, and very welcoming punters. The rooms are clean, comfortable and, with the breakfast thrown in as well, represent fantastic value.

Bart United Kingdom

The whole experience was lovely. The lady that I assume runs the place offered us dinner even when it was their time to close the kitchen and they had no problem adjusting their menu to my requirements (I'm vegan). We had a lovely stay, the room was clean and then in the morning the staff was also really accommodating. Wish we could have stayed for longer!

Leyleyleu Spain

Lovely cooked breakfast, nice large clean room overlooking the back garden of the pub in quiet village setting.

Moi United Kingdom

Friendly staff, a comfortable room, good food. What more could you ask for?

Lynne United Kingdom

Excellent stay. Friendly and accommodating staff and good food.

Emily United Kingdom

The country setting, the staff, the food. Will definitely stay again.

Paul United Kingdom

Lovely food but would have preferred the actual plate being hot. Food cooled down quickly

Trevor United Kingdom

I arrived at midnight after a long drive to be given a plate of freshly made sandwiches, home cooked ham and a couple of pints of good beer. The landlord, Roy, was very friendly, as were the locals. My room was fantastic, the bathroom had an excellent shower, which I used a lot. The bed was very comfortable. Breakfast was great on both mornings that I was there and I had the braised shin beef on Saturday night. There was plenty of it and it was very good. I received traditional hospitality at its very best from a family run pub that is an asset to to the lovely village of Dewlish. What's even better is that it looks like I shall be back there next year which I'm looking forward to already. This is a great place to stay in a lovely rural setting. Ideal as a base for touring the beautiful county of Dorset or for a walking or cycling holiday. Drop in for a quick pint or stay for a week and I think that you'll enjoy it. Thanks again Roy.

David United Kingdom

The staff were friendly and amazing. Our room was comfortable. The breakfast was excellent. We had dinner for our 2 night stay and it was brilliant. Would highly recommended this place. Thank you very much.

Gracie United Kingdom
