Explore the best of Dorset
There are countless ways to spend your time when staying in and around Shaftesbury.
Whether you’re keen to lace up your walking boots and explore the rolling countryside, or prefer a leisurely wander through the charming streets of this historic market town, our location is perfectly placed for discovery. From stunning viewpoints and scenic trails to independent shops and local attractions, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Here are just a handful of the best places to visit – all within easy reach.
Feel free to speak to Jonathan and the team here at the pub for plenty of ideas and inspiration on where to go and what to see.
Stourhead
With its rolling hills, tranquil lakes, and classical architecture, Stourhead is a true masterpiece of landscape design. Described as “a living work of art” when first opened in the 1740s, it continues to captivate visitors today.
Beautiful in every season, Stourhead is especially enchanting in summer – the perfect setting to relax, unwind, and enjoy a peaceful picnic surrounded by nature.
Gold Hill
Founded over 1,000 years ago by King Alfred the Great, Shaftesbury is one of England’s most charming and historic market towns. It’s perhaps best known for its picturesque Gold Hill — made famous by the iconic Hovis advert — and its breathtaking views across the unspoilt Dorset countryside.
Picturesque Village of Hindon
Wander around the chocolate box village of Hindon or kick back and relax over a glass (or two), or why not savour some al fresco dining courtesy of the Lamb at Hindon (our sister pub also).
They also have beautiful room if you want to stay around for a bit longer.
