Staff very welcoming and professional. Room lovely, bed comfy but think they should have one firm pillow and one soft pillow on bed. 1st morning breakfast - cereal and yoghurts variety and toaster available for use but 2nd morning nothing laid out no cereal and yoghurt or toast so was limited. Iron ironing board and hairdryer a bonus. The layout of the restaurant and decor had a relaxing cost ambience. Over all happy to go back and have recommended to to family who have already booked in.

Highly recommended!

Really enjoyed our stay here. Pub is beautiful and has plenty of room, lovely garden front and back. Free on site parking and breakfast. We didn’t eat there apart from breakfast but always looked busy with people. Great location to get to Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door.

Historical property, quiet this time of year (end of Sept) and friendly staff. Great food too. Well worth visiting if you’re in the area! Close to the Tank Museum and good local taxis.
