Lovely village inn with a very good restaurant and nice, boutique style rooms . Service was excellent and friendly. Parking available in a small but ample car park opposite. Easy walk to the cove and a longer walk (1.5 miles) to Durdle Door. Highly recommended. Book directly for 20% off on joining pub loyalty scheme.
