Leased by the community.

Set in a beautiful West Dorset village, this 17th-century inn was threatened with closure but in 2022 was successfully taken over and renovated by the community on a tenancy agreement with local brewers Palmers. A fish and chip van calls Tuesday evening when you are welcome to use the pub (plates & cutlery provided) and similarly a pizza van calls on alternate Thursdays. Local CAMRA branch Pub of the Year 2023. Winter hours listed, more generous in other seasons - phone to check.

Information for this venue is provided by the West Dorset Branch of CAMRA
