Roadside pub on main Dorset artery offering 'welcome' break to seaside bound travellers. The pub was renamed 'Sheaf of Arrows' because the pub is referred to by that name in Thomas Hardy's 1884 story 'Interlopers at the Knap'. Two bars, one of which is dedicated to diners. Pleasant good-sized outdoor area (paved) for when the weather is good.
