Situated in the peaceful village of West Knighton, New Inn – Dorchester is a former 16th-century coaching inn. It blends original features with modern attributes, such as free WiFi and free on-site parking. A perfect English pub that reminds me of faulty towers in a good way. Beautiful village but classy food.

Situated in Evershot, 27 km from Golden Cap, The Acorn Inn features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and a bar. Boasting a 24-hour front desk, this property also provides guests with a bowling alley. The property is non-smoking and is set 44 km from Monkey World. The Inn is just beautiful - the quintessential English pub in a gorgeous village. The staff were all extremely friendly, check-in was easy and the room- described as snug - was indeed snug but very well designed. The bed was comfortable and from the homemade oaty biscuits to the cute bottle of local milk, it was all lovely. However, the stand out feature was the incredible food at dinner. Not only was it beautifully presented with stunning garnishes from their own garden but the dishes were thoughtful, original and totally delicious! Highly recommended all round!
