This is a welcoming local inn with good rooms and a lovely garden area. We ate here in the evening and also had a cooked breakfast the next morning. Both meals were well cooked and reasonably priced. This was our second stay here and we will visit again when in the area.

A lovely one night stay. The pub is in a quiet village location, close to lots of interesting places in beautiful Dorset countryside. Our room was large, with an equally large bathroom. We ate in the pub in the evening. The menu choice was good, prices reasonable and the food was excellent. We had our breakfast served outside in the garden and, again, this was tasty, hot and really enjoyable. Thoroughly recommended.

Spacious room but in need of a thorough clean. All the surfaces were sticky and the dust was everywhere on the floor. The bathroom items desperately needed being cleaned with beach. Also there was huge alive spider in the ceiling green light. We were happy that bed linen was clean and the mattress was comfortable.

The Brewers Arms is in a quiet little village. The pub was very festive on the outside with flags still from the Jubilee celebrations. We had a lovely large comfortable clean room off the pub gardens. The bathroom was huge and handicap accessible if you needed that. We had a good selection of tea and coffee with a kettle in our room and a mini fridge with milk and water in it. We texted our breakfast selections to the owners the night before and breakfast was delivered to our room at the time we requested. We had plenty of food, juice and tea. There were lots of options to choose from. We were happy to see a big free car park! They also had a charging station for electric cars. Initially we had a mix up as the pub was closed on Monday but lodging was still available. We couldn't get any answer at the front door. We had booked online months prior and were worried we would be sleeping in our car!!! As we did not have wifi we did not get messages from the owners giving us the location etc of our room and access to key lock box. Nobodys fault - just a hiccup. We got it all sorted out. The owners were super friendly and apologetic. As the pub was closed we did not get to eat there but headed to Dorchester which had lots of options. We would definitely stay here again.
