Fantastic, loved every minute of the 2 nights we stayed. Service is exceptional, food scrumptious, from breakfast to dinner. Beautiful setting, quiet, comfortable, room was relaxing and we slept wonderfully well. I would recommend to all.

The food was ok but I ordered a wine and asked for a dash of lemonade in it to which the waitress agreed, I said I don’t want a bottle just a dash. She said that was fine but she then brought over a large glass of lemonade and we were charged £4.50, terrible!

We stayed a night and had dinner and breakfast. Good welcome and friendly and enthusiastic staff team. Room was comfortable and the food tasty. BUT this venue was hosting the South Dorset Hunt AGM and also welcomed shooting parties. Sadly that means we would neither return or recommend to others.

We stayed for 2 nights whilst visiting the area to reminisce and meet friends some we had not seen for over 40yrs . The rooms have obviously recently been refurbished and were cosy and very clean . The manager was extremely nice and had a good sense of humour and made us most welcome. The bar area is a little small but obviously more of a dining pub. Food was good breakfast and dinner. We hope to return next year when we visit UK .

We had a real nice family meal at this dog friendly place tucked away in North Dorset. The potato and spinage soup was beautifully made and the lamb chops were literally to die for. Staff were all friendly and attentive and the real ale was most excellent :)

The Fox Inn is a beautiful, well maintained property. Our room was spotless and very comfortable on the top floor. We found the staff to be helpful and friendly and both dinner and the two breakfasts we had were well cooked and delicious. A car is essential for travelling as the inn is situated in a very rural area, but there are country walks that can be taken from the inn itself.
