Very warm welcome, really good customer service. The rooms were spacious and well equipped, the tea, biscuits and Nespresso machine were very welcome. Food was excellent and the bar was very friendly. Cannot recommend enough, it is a pretty thatched pub in a very quiet hamlet.

All good! Friendly and helpful team run a great pub and a very comfortable hotel. Beautiful part of Dorset, Plush is a quiet hideaway hamlet, the Brace of Pheasants is an ancient thatched inn doing everything well. Tasty supper, huge range of beers and breakfast to die for. Fantastic stay.

Lovely traditional country pub with a great food offer, stayed in a room in the main building which was cosy, welcoming and very warm which was needed on our arrival day. Bed was very comfortable and location of the pub meant a peaceful nights sleep. Tasty breakfast set us up for the day ahead, will definitely return.
