The Coppleridge Inn  

On the outskirts of Shaftesbury, set in a converted old farmhouse with unbroken views over the Blackmore Vale. About 4 km from the town centre, this dog-friendly, pet-friendly country pub sits on 15 acres of meadows and woodland.

The vibe is cosy countryside with an edgy twist—log fires, rustic timber and rooms arranged around a converted courtyard. There are ten spacious ground-floor rooms with countryside views and in-room TVs; wake up to meadow mornings and wide open skies.

Friendly bar and on-site restaurant, al fresco dining on the sun terrace beneath an old vine, a children's garden complete with chickens, and extensive grounds to explore across 15 acres. Free parking and dog-friendly facilities make arrivals easy.

Free Wi-Fi across the property and convenient on-site parking.

Four distinct dining rooms—each with its own log fire—serve home-cooked traditional and modern pub classics. Sip at the bar or dine al fresco in summer; the menu leans into local, hearty flavours.
