安维尔旅馆

Nice old inn, but in need of a bit of TLC. However understand their situation in this current economic climate. Very friendly staff & local clientele. Reasonable food.

Great find, in a great location to explore the local area, staff, room / breakfast very good. Only thing to improve is the bar pricing, thought £6.70 a little excessive for a pint of local lager.

Lovely stay at a great place. Excellent staff.

The room needed a deep clean - this is an old property so it’s always going to be a challenge to keep things looking at their best, but there were areas that looked as if they hadn’t been touched in months (towel rail, tiles, pictures etc). The staff at check in were great, but I was a bit concerned (as a woman travelling on my own) that a side door at the bottom of the stairs would always be kept open, but after they all gone home, everywhere else is locked. I got the impression that there were no staff in the pub overnight. Dinner was a reasonable price (2 courses for £20) but the burger bun had been microwaved so was inedible. Breakfast was absolutely delicious though - I had eggs royale with lovely smoked salmon and perfectly poached eggs. All in all, an OK stay with a great breakfast.

I love this place! The staff is so friendly and both the beer and the food are great! The atmosphere is unique due to the age of the building and I appreciate its quirkiness. Highly recommend!

The owners were lovely and welcoming. Nothing was a problem and the entire vibe was just lush and wholesome. ❤️

Very nice place to stay, adequate parking, staff very friendly and helpful, food is very nice with a good choice.

My stay has been very positive. Check‑in was friendly, welcoming, and informative, which set a great tone from the start. My room is cosy, clean, and comfortable, and I’ve had a peaceful night’s sleep. The Wi‑Fi works well, and the free parking is really convenient. The location is good too, making everything easy and stress‑free. Overall, I’m very happy with my experience.

Our room was comfortable, clean and cosy. The Staff couldn’t do enough to make our stay a pleasant experience. Food was great and varied. We would definitely stay here again.

Great pub, excellent food

Great

Lovely old pub which was a good stop over for the night. Breakfast nice and hot with limited selection but filling. Friendly welcome at check in.

Nice and clean, comfortable with friendly staff

Great people and a perfect room. Good location for visiting many places in Dorset. The inn is an old thatched building with a decent beer garden and covered outdoor eating. The food is very good pub fayre and there are interesting specials. On Friday and Saturday delicious pizzas are also served, cooked in the outdoor wood fired pizza oven Breakfast is included with the room and there are a good variety of choices with quality ingredients. A great find that we will revisit if ever on holiday in the area again.

The room was slightly on the small side , the bed being a standard double it would have been difficult to have put a bigger bed in. The bathroom again was a bit cramped, the loo holder was broken and the doors were out of line and provided no privacy. There appeared to be no soundproofing as it was quite evident that the adjacent rooms occupants could be clearly heard. The Monday morning breakfast was cooked badly, however the staff were very pleasant and helpful

Me and my partner stayed here over the weekend. We absolutely loved the stay, so clean and comfortable. Shower was a bonus! So powerful. Unfortunately my partner was taken into hospital during our last night staying there. But the very kind bartender/floor manager? Accommodated to our needs. So kind and thoughtful. He brought our breakfast up to our rooms. I would highly recommend staying here ☺️ Breakfast was lovely too!

Great value out of season.

Excellent out of season value

What a little gem The Anvil Inn turned out to be! It's a beautiful old thatched building, and as you would expect with an old building, the stairs could prove a little steep for some peoole but we didn't have any trouble bounding up them; there is one spot where the door to the guest floor is a little low, but it's been thoughtfully padded, so no banged noggins here. We stayed in Room No.5 which was really cosy and had a little en-suite with a decent shower and very fluffy towels. Tea and Coffee making facilities were provided, a decent hairdryer and a TV, so everything that we needed. The room was absolutely spotless! We stayed two nights as visiting family and friends in Dorset and we had them visit both nights for dinner in the pub. The food we had was really good, very tasty and cooked to perfection... And very reasonably priced. Now that we have found (and stayed at) The Anvil Inn, it'll be our place of choice whenever we're visiting.

Very nice old coaching in less than 2 miles away from GDSF.
