The best restaurants in The Lower Tarrants North Dorset South West

Terrible food on a Friday night, not sure what it’s awarding winning for but it wasn’t for the food they served us!! Crispy beef salad was not crispy in fact it was the opposite and it wasn’t a salad!! There was a mound of beef on the side of the plate with a mound of lettuce on the opposite side - a crispy beef salad this is not! The scotch egg starter was also very soggy and not at all crispy or golden. The special of monk fish scampi again suffered from not being a crispy scampi and once again had a soggy texture with the monk fish bring very tasteless. Overall very poor

We had our wedding reception meal here last week and I can honestly say it was fabulous. The staff were extremely attentive and the food was the best. Thank you to Lee, Hannah, Jay and the team for making our special day so memorable.

We booked to stay here in the camping area for two nights. Upon arrival a charity event was taking place so it was busy with lots of stalls and visitors. The lady behind the bar was lovely and did a great job checking us in and we booked in for a meal that night which was very nice. However, the facilities advertised as part of camping were not provided. The toilet was left full of rubbish from the charity event and not cleared, the toilet was not cleaned or replenished over the two days we stayed and the shower room which was dirty was never cleaned. I tried to replenish the loo roll myself visiting the building where the house accommodation guest entrance was located but found nothing and the pub entrance was closed surprisingly. Shame, because it is nicely located and when the pub was open, had a nice atmosphere and good food. Poor customer service from yourselves and anybody choosing to stay - take your own loo roll.
