Great…mainly
The person who greeted me (gentleman) wasn’t exactly helpful. Found my question regarding breakfast to be really odd as if I was asking something out of the ordinary for a hotel!
The room was nice, mattress not quite so, but overall no problems and it’s great for an overnight stay.
The main issue is that being an old coach house on a busy road if you’re a light sleeper you’re likely to be disturbed.
Ate in the restaurant which was excellent.
Went elsewhere for breakfast purely based on the interaction the day before.

Booked a suite, the photos showed a separate lounge area, the room just had a sofa bed in it, no extra room

Bed was comfortable but unfortunately the general cleanliness of the room could be improved I.e lots of cobwebs which for the price we paid we didn’t expect to see. Kitchen closed at 7pm and no other pubs locally or takeaways to get food. Had to use the local garage.

The rooms were beautifully decorated and had everything we required. Food in pub was lovely. The road was quite noisy.

Ideal for a brief stop.
A brief one night stay, very convenient. Comfortable & welcoming, nice light bathroom. On a busy road but little traffic at night. Just five rooms. Nice pub food.

The evening meal was excellent. Very comfortable beds and a great shower and bathroom. Breakfast was from 9am from a menu and therefore a relaxing start to the day.

Ok for a stop over
Nice size room. Sadly we couldn’t open the window. Shower temperamental.
Had evening meal both days, they were fine.
Breakfast ok, but didn’t like paying for each item, this can add up and be expensive. Would rather have a set price.
Lots of onsite parking.

Great place for a stopover on our way to Cornwall. Easy to find with easy parking and a good breakfast. Room was clean & tidy with a great shower!
It is located right on the A35 so if you’re looking for peace & quiet this may not be for you. We found it ok as we were exhausted from a long drive.

Really nice pub just outside Dorchester. Friendly staff that were helpful. The food is simple, yet very tasty and the carvery on Sunday was an unexpected treat when we got back from a day out.
