Food Scene
The Ibberton
Really good pub menu with a lovely outside space - we love it here.
The best pub for food in the area, in our opinion! You do often need to book. There's a super walk to be had at the back of the pub up Hod Hill for one of the best views around. Ask us for details :)

Quirky, fresh brunch and lunch menu (though they do run out of things early) and a good spot to base a wander around the Georgian town of Blandford.

Sightseeing
The village was designed by Capability Brown and is truly beautiful and quite unusual. Either a quick drive through or a stop at the Hambro pub for cream tea makes a great little trip and its just over 5 minutes from us.

Shopping
A brilliant farm shop with a superb selection of local, free range produce. The perfect place to get some treats, chutneys or snacks to take home. You can often see kittens, chickens and pigs too - great for a free bonus with kids! We love it and you'll find items from the shop on the breakfast table too!
