We came here on the last night of our honeymoon and we're so glad we did! We both had the duck and it was incredible. Staff were friendly and attentive, made us feel very welcome. Definitely planning to return in our next holiday in Dorset.

Absolutely amazing food; much more than usual pub grub! Everything was clearly freshly made and very well executed. The menu was varied and interesting. The service was also excellent.

Went for Sunday roast. Delicious food. Generous portions. Booked in advance for a party of 6 adults & 4 children. Orders all ready and correct on our arrival. Very friendly owner, who made us feel instantly welcome. Only downside was no baby changing table available.

A secluded, quaint, and tranquil inn. Great price. Truly a hidden gem of Dorset. The owners are good people - friendly, yet discreet. Georgia, one of the hosts, can be found working the bar at the pub, which offers quality food and drink. Short drive away from Lyme Regis and Charmouth.

Absolutely amazing roast and I’ve eaten a lot of roasts!! Huge portions and the meal included cauliflower cheese at no extra cost. Lovely pub garden in a beautiful little village. Golden Cap on a nearby so I’d recommend a long walk along the gorgeous Jurassic coast followed by a roast at this gem of a pub

Great food, fantastic service and really well priced. A kids meal for £8 with dessert and a drink is great value.

I can firmly recommend this restaurant. We came here for a dinner and were very surprised. Everything was exceptionally tasty and very well decorated. Service was fast, the waitresses were all friendly. The food took a while but the place was full. We sat in the dog friendly garden. We had three starters to share, prawns, the cauliflower and BBQ pulled pork. Especially the cauliflower was awesome. To the point. Lots of spices, great sauce, spicy. The fries were crisp even covered with sauce. We then shared the fish curry. Another surprise. Also spicy, the rice was perfect, crisp vegetables and a delightful sauce over the shrimps, the fish and the mussels which were outstanding huge. The prices for such high quality are very OK. The negative reviews could be explained by the season. We were told that during summer vacation the near campground is flooded with people who then also flood this place.

A fantastic pub, clean, friendly, lovely atmosphere. The garden is sheltered with plenty of seating. Dog friendly. Booking is reccomendationed. The menu is varied with plenty of choice for all dietary requirements. Along with sharing platters. The staff are attentive and friendly. The pub is historical. The old post office has been integrated into the front lounge area. If you love your Sunday lunch, book early as you won't get a seat.

Had a wonderful evening in this cosy and friendly pub. We both ordered the venison which turned out to be the best we’ve have ever had in a pub (and we’ve had our fair share of venison!). The service was outstanding and we were made to feel at home right away. Will definitely be returning when we next visit Dorset!

Beautiful pub with a lovely outlook. Great food and beer selection. Great value for money and different to anything else that we’ve experienced in Dorset. Not the usual tourist fare at tourist prices but really good quality and well worth it.

Lovely little country pub with a great garden space and very cosy interior. Staff were very friendly and accommodating to our group and the food was delicious, would recommend the crab sandwich! Also a fab local beer selection. Will try to stop by again soon 😊

Myself and my husband went here for lunch and were definitely not disappointed. We received a very friendly welcome and opted to sit in the beautiful beer garden to enjoy the sunshine. We had a Ploughman's, which was plentiful and a portion of chips each. Everything about our visit was perfect, we will definitely be returning and highly recommend this venue to everyone.

Whilst staying locally we visited this pub for dinner. The staff were very friendly and welcoming, especially with the dog. The garden is big and spacious and perfect on a warm sunny evening, with a large tree that provides great shade over parts, perfect with young children and furry dogs. The outside bar and kitchen area adds a really nice atmosphere outside. The food was great. And we even got a takeaway box for the pizza. Highly recommend a visit

The Marquis Of Lorne

Rating: 4.7 (353) Price Level:

Located at the end of a primarily single track lane, you'll find this charming pub. If arriving between 2pm and 6pm the owners will give you instruction how to access your room. Starting with the accomodation - the bed was larger than average and exceptionally comfortable. A couple of very tasty homemade biscuits awaited us on the room's serving tray. How lovely! Tea and coffee also in the room, however the milk is kept in the fridge at the bottom of a very short corridor. Disappointingly, one of our folded 'clean' large towels was still dirty, and whilst not affecting us personally it may be worth noting that the shower cubicle is on the smaller side with an older model Mira shower. You'll need to turn the main dial to the left, and the water temperature reaches hot almost instantly. We'd booked an evening meal for 6.30pm, and whilst the dining area was pretty empty at this point within an hour it was full. My meal was heavenly, I cannot praise it enough - a starter of salt & pepper squid on a garlic and lime mayonnaise, a main of sticky beef with rice and an Indonesian-style salad. Absolutely amazing! Breakfast was wonderful too - a small selection of cereals (Weetabix, Alpen or Cornflakes), with the option of pre-prepaired chopped fruits and natural yogurt; followed by a full English. I'd definitely recommend a visit to this pub if you don't mind a drive down a narrow lane -you'll probably not find a more tranquil location.

Symondsbury Estate

Visited the Symondsbury Kitchen for Breakfast, which was delicious and the location stunning. We enjoyed a mixed feast of full English, summer fruit bircher, and maple pancakes. The staff were friendly and helpful, the bacon to die for, the berries gigantic juicy and sweet. My mocha was creamy and luxurious and the OJ tarte, bitty and refreshing. Only flies in the ointment were literal flies, or rather wasps, who set about our breakfast with gusto to the extent that we had to move ourselves and kids in doors to get away from them, although mum bravely maintained the outer fort knowing that however irritating the bugs they remained more relaxing breakfast companions than the kids.

A new find for this year and we've visited 5 times since! Lovely base for great walks with free parking. The estate has great shops, beautiful garden, gallery and cafe serves really yummy food aswell as the little food shop selling delicious pasta salad/pastries etc if you wanted more of a picnic. Over the summer they've had great garden games and trails, even have donkeys and goats for the little ones to visit who are very friendly. Our favourite walk is the holloways, so unusual and beautiful sea view from colmers hill

An excellent Exhibition of artworks by local artists and makers at the Winter Open Exhibition at the Sou Sou West Contemporary Art Gallery on the Symondsbury Estate in Dorset. The Main Gallery also runs alongside the Little Gallery and shop with a number of beautifully made local artworks and craft items for sale in the shop. The exhibition runs from the 16th November until the 9th December 2024 and corresponds with the Symondsbury Estate's Christmas Market which runs over 3 days on the 6th, 7th and 8th December. An inspiring Exhibition in a beautiful location. Well worth a visit.

A lovely little village and just off the A35. Garden centre, cafe and gift shop and the animals. Park in the Symondsbury estate car park and climb Colmers Hill and take in the wonderful views. Explore the ancient Hollow ways, pick up a map at the visitor centre for 50p and admire the carvings or add your own.

We really enjoyed our visit and was one of the highlights of our trip when visiting Dorset. The service and food were fantastic and locally sourced, just wished we knew who the butcher was so we could buy some meat to take home with us! There is a lot of outdoor seating with a lovely view. We hope to come back again, thank you!

Some places just stand out and should be recognised as such. Bob and Jenny have not been at Hare and Hounds too long, but by goodness me, what they do there should be emanated across the service industry. Small, but absolutely fabulous pub and food is immense. Try it, try it today, you will NOT be disappointed. I always say, you tell a place by the toilets.... and this one they are A1*

Probably the best country pub in the world! Bob and Jenny are wonderful, genuinely warm hosts. The food is fairly traditional in style and incredible. It's a Palmers pub which is okay ( Palmer's 'Tally ho' is a great pint) The atmosphere is just what you need from a country pub in my opinion. Unfussy, unhurried, mud and dog friendly, and possibly the best beer garden view on the planet.

A lovely pub - so pleased we found it! Bob and Jenny were wonderful hosts (actually all the staff were). The menu is reasonably priced and lots of choice. My husbands steak was perfect. The beer garden is so lovely - the wild garden is beautiful. We had a wonderful afternoon there and we will be back when we are next in the area. Really dog friendly too. Thank you and we will see you next year! :)

Just had a faultless meal at Brassica - there were 8 of us, a mixture of meat, pesces and veggies. The food was outstanding - something for everyone and arrived quickly. Vibe is very informal and friendly, we loved all the people who served us. We ate most of the things on the menu and every dish was exceptional. Can't wait to come again.

A solid 5/5 for us. Could not fault a thing. Tried both Spanish wines and the French rose at a £5 for small glass…you don’t need to spend more. Absolutely fab. Sign of a good restaurant is spot on house wine. Lovely service from all and my steak was melt in my mouth. We will be back. Thank you all !

The Bull Hotel, Bridport

Rating: 4.4 (818) Price Level:

I liked this hotel but it is not for anyone who is noise sensitive. The rooms look like on the website but the single rooms are super small. I heard every door, every step above and everyone in the beer garden. And because of that this would have been a 3 star review if not for the excellent breakfast which I loooooved. There is a small buffet of yoghurt, granola and juices and then you order from a menu. My soft scramble was so good, I still think about it. I also had the Sunday Roast which was also good.

Beautiful hotel, lovely cool courtyard with plenty of iced water on tap. Really lovely, helpful staff. We stayed for a couple of nights as part of a large wedding party and they bent over backwards to accommodate us. Nothing was too much bother for them and all our party thoroughly enjoyed our time at The Bull, despite the intense heat! We will be returning I'm sure.
