Eventually found the Greyhound Inn as directions from Booking said Dorchester but it is not in Dorchester (and often no internet on travelled route lots of tiny country lanes) Very pretty village quite and pleasant - comfortable bed and clean one huge plus dogs were able to be in the bar and at breakfast area. Breakfast was very good. ( this was particular welcome as arrived to late for any food in the evening stopped serving anything promptly at 8.00pm)

No food served after 8.00pm and the village has no shops etc. Can find a car parked right up to your bedroom window if on the ground floor. Booking.com should put the name of village on booking form as it is just said Dorchester confusing and spent ages trying to find it.

Chris and all the staff were amazing and couldn't be more helpful, friendly and accommodating! The food was delicious and served in a lovely setting. A well stocked bar and super outdoor seating area was much appreciated after long walks in the stunning Dorset countryside! Our room was of a good size and well appointed, although a little maintenance and updating would be good moving forward. A beautiful location, in a quiet village setting, within easy distance for many wonderful walks and the coast. We will definitely be back!

Lovely pub in an idyllic village. Food offering by the pub was of a fantastic standard and very tasty. All staff members attentive, accommodating and very welcoming. The landlord, who also ran the kitchen spent the latter part of the evening talking to different customers and making them feel welcome. Brilliant!

The rooms being offered were of a good standard; however, to go the extra step the bathroom initially only had a bath - all rooms should have a shower too. On my request, I was moved to a different room with a shower with no fuss at all from the staff. However, the bathroom in this room needed some decorative re-freshening.

Lovely location, very clean rooms, food was excellent, we had decided to stop off on route for lunch but wished now we had opted for lunch there, as it looked and smelt lovely!! We did have dinner the following evening in the pub and highly recommend, also good portions as well including breakfast. We would definitely return.

Shame the pub closes early on Sunday but we were aware of this and given suggestions of where else to try. Room was cosy but very clean and comfortable.

Beautiful, quintessential Dorset country village, lavender around the garden, ivy round the windows. Thatched cottages and birdsong. Simple, tasteful and well equipped room. Staff were all friendly, helpful and professional. The food was excellent, one of the best vegetarian fresh pasta dishes I've ever eaten.

Clean rooms and friendly staff.

Late start time of 8am for breakfast is no good if your staying for business. Paid for breakfast but had to leave for work early,most hotels start breakfast at 6.30am. This needs to be looked at or dont accept business trips as currently the set up is for holiday makers.

Lovely property, Breakfast was very good and the staff all look welcoming and helpful! Rooms are cozy and clean.

Only slight suggestion I would made is maybe to have a lighter duvet for the hot weather. But that is was only a minimal inconvenience 😊

The Greyhound is in the gorgeous small Dorset village of Sydling St Nicholas (not in the town of Dorchester!). We were there to walk a section of the Wessex Ridgeway so the location was perfect for us!

Our rooms were very comfortable, but small.
