Fabulous accommodation in a chocolate box village

The room was beautifully appointed, modern within a heritage building. There were lots of fresh milk and decent coffee bags available. The adjacemt pub was clean and tidy, the evening meal was great and breakfast was superb.

Great Choice for Short Break in Rural Dorset

A lovely night's stay. Excellent food in restaurant/bar. Friendly and attentive service by staff and owners. Comfy room with plenty of space. Perhaps lacking some of the character of some of the other rooms, but this was clear from the description when booking. Enjoyed strolling round the very picturesque village and old Abbey area of Cerne Abbas.

Rooms with a pub

Good room, next to the pub. Breakfast was good, but felt the dinner was a bit overpriced. Good service - the staff were very friendly and helpful. Also, beware - there is also a New Inn in Dorchester (about 10 miles away), which comes up first in Google Maps. Make sure you go to the right one!
