The Acorn Inn

Our charming 16th-century coaching inn transports you to the pages of a Thomas Hardy novel. Featured in Tess of the d’Urbervilles, our atmospheric inn boasts old beams, oak panelling, roaring fires and an original skittle alley.

The beautiful rural setting in the heart of the Dorset countryside is complemented by our warm, attentive service and fine local cuisine.

Our hotel will close on 5th November, but we are so looking forward to welcoming guests back from 3rd December. 
Thank you for your understanding and support during these challenging times. 

If you are looking for the perfect gift or experience to enjoy in the future, we are delighted to offer our monetary gift vouchers with an additional 20% added value, with our compliments.
