Can't Wait to Come Back Review
We only used this place as a stop over having arrived on the Condor ferry from Weymouth but wished we had arrived sooner and eaten in the bar and tried a few more ales. The staff were welcoming and dispite an earlier fire in the day the lack of hot water caused by no gas was only a minor inconvenience. We wished we had longer to explore the surroundings with our dog so will be back one day. It is a great location for Dorset attractions and yes it is out of the way but this guarantees peace and quiet. The rooms are spacious with comfortable beds. The breakfast in the morning was one of the best I have had in ages consisting of some great local blackpudding, sausages and bacon. We will be back, hopefully to try the Sunday roast. Good value.
