What a wonderful pub! The food is outstanding and offers fantastic value. We usually visit two to three times a year, and it’s always our top choice! Thank you, Cheryl and the whole team! - Liz Ray, Silver from Surrey. View all feedback.

My wife and I wanted to get away from Bridport to avoid the horrendously noisy Jurassic fields music festival which has now moved even closer to my bungalow. We chose the Mitre inn in Sandford Orcas, a tiny village a couple of miles north of Sherborne. It was fairly easy to find but down single track roads with passing places. Ample parking at the side of the inn. They have a restaurant along with 2 guest rooms on the first floor and a Sheppards hut in the garden. Our room was very reasonable and included breakfast. The room was comfortable and spacious with a small settee, wardrobe, chair and 2 bedside cabinets. The bathroom was large, with a shower cubicle, basin and loo. Tea coffee making facilities are provided. Breakfast was cereal fruit and yoghurt plus the usual fare of eggs cooked anyway you liked, bacon, sausage, mushrooms, tomato, toast and orange juice, tea and coffee. Evening meals were available, prior booking is recommended. We had the battered cod, chips and peas on the first night which was the best I had in a long time. My wife had an amazing desert of Chocolate Brownie sundae and I had Lemon cheesecake which was lovely too. Next night we had Sausage and onion baguette and a brie and cranberry baguette followed by a summer fruits crumble. All were very reasonably priced and delicious. On the 3rd night we were offered a roast dinner for guests of all 3 rooms which was very kind as normally they close after the Sunday lunch servings. The owner, Steve, the previous owners, Cheryl and Allen who still help out, Jeff (the chef) and the young lady waitresses were all so friendly and really helpful. It was so peaceful and relaxing there with only an occasional passing car. Highly recommended to stay or just go for a great meal.
We had a fantastic dinner with delicious traditional food and drinks. The atmosphere was wonderful and very friendly. Steve, the new landlord, was incredibly welcoming. We had a lovely time. Thank you! Service: 5, Location: 5.
Amazing location, nestled in the beautiful Dorset countryside. Steve, the owner, was incredibly welcoming. The room was nice, with an ensuite and a comfortable bed. The dining areas were bustling, which is always a good sign, and we heard excellent remarks about the food. There was a great selection of real ale, and they are dog-friendly too. I will definitely return when I'm in the area again. Highly recommended! Rooms: 4, Service: 5, Location: 5.
