We stayed for one night as a stopover on our journey down to Devon. What a lovely pub - attractive bar area (which is dog friendly), good food, a warm welcome from John the landlord and a fabulous room. We were staying in "Cobblestones" which is one of the rooms located up a little cobbled lane behind the pub itself.... More

Visited for a meal without a reservation - the bar was busy, but we were made welcome and a table was quickly found for the three of us. I had blade of beef as mains and it lirerally melted in the mouth - one of my companions had sole which was superb and the other companion has haddock. All three... More

We have often stopped here for a drink after a walk to the beach at Kilve, but decided to book a table for lunch after a round walk to East Quantockshead. My friend is a vegetarian who eats fish, and when we have checked the menu before there is always a fair selection. This time there was roast of several... More

The good bits; Charming olde-worlde pub/hotel with pretty garden area. Owner, staff, & locals all very friendly. Conveniently situated for quiet country break or, as we did, stopover en route to another destination. Great for walkers & Jurassic beachcombers (Lulworth eat your heart out!). .... The not so good bits; No heating in the room (in March) so it was... More

Turned up for a meeting with a photographer, and afterwards decided to stop to have some food. I am so glad that we did. There was only one portion of the scallops left so my fiancee and I had this for a starter, they were tender and melted in the mouth. Usually the side salad with this sort of dish... More

Just came here for a pint and wish we could have stayed for longer. It was so cosy, dog-friendly (loads of nice dogs to play with) and very busy so I'm sure the food must be great. The bar is full of hunting memorabilia which may not be to everyone's taste, but you couldn't ask for a more authentic English... More

Fabulous small pub with superb chefs and staff. Tried the oxtail, pheasant, guinea fowl and osso bucco as well as the ales and ciders. All amazing. Clean comfortable and dog friendly but organised so that the canine guests don't impinge on the few who are not canine-compatible. More

I stayed here for a night with the family and really enjoyed the place. We stayed in the family suite which has 2 bedrooms and is perfect for 2 adults and 2 children. We had a couple of drinks in the bar in front of the fireplace before dinner. The bar is full of hunting memorabilia and is rather conducive... More
