This IS a lovely and unspoilt country pub, but within a spit of Wimborne. Great beers and ciders, with good, basic, food. This is the sort of place country pubs should be like. (I will second the dislike of the plastic garden furniture, but will happily put up with it as the pub is so good.) 9/10 HenPen - 2 Mar 2014 17:49 |
A perfect illustration of when you get the basics right all else is irrelevant. A simple choice of good ale and basic food in a lovely old pub in beautiful surroundings. This is a wonderful example of what a good English country pub can be. Floyd - 15 Apr 2012 17:09 |
As expected, we found this pub closed initially when we arrived shortly after 3pm on our Saturday afternoon visit. On our return in the evening, we found an unspoiled rural gem with 3 very small rooms on 2 levels. The top level at the roadside has a set of steps leading down to the tiny bar, where there is one table, 2 chairs, a few stools along one wall and a small bench on the opposite wall. Having more than 4 or 5 people in this room would make it very crowded. There is also a cosy lounge at the rear, which seemed to be the most popular room. Toilets are accessed from outside, from where you can get good views over to Wimborne and the Minster. As you would expect in such a confined space, conversation reigns and you soon get to meet interesting people. There are 2 changing ales. On our visit, there was Island Wight Gold & Exmoor Gold. The former was changed for Plain Ales Sheep Dip whilst we were there. Cider by Rosie is normally stocked. But only Westons 1st Quality & Country Perry were remaining yesterday. I always really enjoy discovering pubs like this. They are like stepping back in time to a lost heritage. There are few better pubs in the country than this one, when it comes to atmosphere. blue_scrumpy - 29 Jan 2012 11:48 |
A lovely pub in which to spend a summer evening. Great beer with different guest beers and very friendly staff. Good glass of red wine for a pub too. A little gem. My only criticism is the awful plastic garden furniture. Otherwise bliss! steamraiser2 - 17 Aug 2011 20:57 |
Another time warp gem, easily found using a map by those of us fortunate enough to be born in the Common Sense era. Wonderful location, great friendly landlady and drinkers present. Bread was a little past its best in our ploughmans, but not complaining really, good points at this pub def wipe away any such niggles. Bonus personally for us being that the pub did not, like so many others, resemble a creche. Long may the 'health & safety bothering stairs' remain ...! rioathmusV - 24 Jun 2011 08:19 |
