Hillarnias in North Dorset

Wonderful tea room, gift shop and b&b. We stayed for two nights in their lovely b&b - immaculate, spacious and very comfortable. Tea, coffee machine, fridge and a complementary bottle of local wine. Really lovely hosts too.

We called in for afternoon tea, with 2 dogs, when it had just started to rain, we asked if the dogs could come inside to the tea room and were delighted to find they were very welcome, even given a biscuit each and a bowl of water. The afternoon tea was delicious, with tea served in lovely china cups. The place is full of character and despite a previous strange review, the couple running this well stocked little store were lovely, and neither had tracksuits or slippers on!

Had cream tea here there was nobody in the cafe but the lady sat us in the garden and we were the only ones lovely cream tea and nothing to much trouble definitely recommend

This is probably the best village shop & tea room in Dorset. Excellent coffee, cakes & lunches at reasonable prices. Beautiful sheltered garden tea room. A warm welcome from hosts Rick & Jan - nothing is too much trouble.

I am at a loss to understand why this couple are running a shop, let alone a tea room. The shop is dark, gloomy and freezing cold. Very little stock. A wait to get anyone to man the Post Office counter, then an even longer wait to get man to find out the cost of a bottle of water. Shuffling around in track suit bottoms, bloke went upstairs then came back with a calculator. After about 5 mins a price was decided upon. No apology, just an instruction to pull my mask even further over my nose. This, in an area where there is no Covid. I left. An unpleasant experience with absolutely no redeeming features. Shop is untidy, poorly stocked and completely unwelcoming. Never again.
