This thatched inn is situated on the fringe of a small hamlet. The pub provides a welcome refreshment stop for ramblers on the nearby Dorset Coastal Path and can get extremely busy on summer weekends. Food predominates in the numerous flagstone-floored rooms whilst the main bar retains the air of a local pub.
