About this property
Nestled amidst stunning countryside, this 2AA Rosette award-winning late 18th century British pub is beautifully set in the heart of the ancient village of Corton Denham, on the Somerset/Dorset border. Bedrooms have views of the rolling countryside and are individually designed in calm, neutral colours. All have contemporary bathrooms and Egyptian cotton linen. Just 3 miles from the historic town of Sherborne, guests can visit the town’s castles, Abbey and boutique shops. Also in the area is Dorset’s Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage site, which is just 45 minutes drive across the rolling Dorset Downs.
Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 9.1 for a two-person trip.
