Dining
The Queens Arms holds a 2AA Rosette for its British pub-restaurant, with a focus on locally sourced and sustainable dishes. Diners can enjoy produce that is delivered weekly from nearby farms, and the on-site microbrewery crafts unique local ales available at the pub. A dedicated private dining room accommodates up to fourteen guests for in-house meals.
Rooms
The ten bedrooms include dog-friendly options and a private cottage with garden views for larger groups. Configurations can be set as super-king or twin beds, and all rooms offer views of the rolling countryside. The Coach House rooms provide spacious accommodation with large bathrooms.
Location
The hotel sits in the ancient village of Corton Denham, 3 miles from the historic town of Sherborne. Guests can visit Sherborne Old Castle, the Fleet Air Arm Museum, and Dorset's Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage site, within a 45-minute drive. The surrounding area offers hiking trails and access to the rolling Dorset Downs.
Pet-Friendly Amenities
Dogs are welcome in designated bedrooms and receive a dog bed, treats, and waste bags on arrival. The pub provides pet bowls and a pet basket, and staff engage with dogs throughout the stay. There are no extra pet charges beyond the standard room rate.
On-Site Facilities
The hotel offers a coffee house on site, a bar with live sport events and themed dinner nights, and a garden with outdoor furniture and a fireplace. Free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station are available. Board games and a sun terrace provide additional entertainment.
