The Museum Inn

One word to sum up the Museum Inn...WOW! Location...in a beautiful village where every property is a thatched chocolate box cottage, and the surrounding countryside is breathtaking. Food....absolutely delicious, fresh, tasty. Room...huge, comfortable, luxurious, so much attention to detail. Staff....friendly, helpful, attentive. Its a beautiful place in a stunning location and we can't wait to stay again! It's perfect. AND, very importantly, our furry dog baby was most welcome. We were in our way to Swanage for a few days, but wanted to stay here instead!! Thank you, Museum Inn.

My husband and I came from Poole for a one night stay with our two dogs. I was expecting nice but this place was something else. We stayed in a stable which was perfect for easy access with the dogs and had the feel of a good hotel. Throughout the day we had a lovely lunch outside, went for a beautiful walk on the doorstep, had a divine, and I mean divine evening meal. The staff are wonderful and work so hard to ensure your every need is met. Having stayed in many similar and I would say overpriced establishments in this country, I say this place tops them all for valve for money ( we would of happily paid an extra £100 for our room). The food is underpriced in my opinion for the fantastic quality , the menu is vast, something for everyone and the ambiance and location is just picture postcard perfect. Luckily for us we only live 20 miles away so we will be back….often 🫶.

Booked a table for 4- very good food and drinks, waitress worked hard as 1 staff had just gone home, we had been offered a discount due to small delay but not taken up as waitress had worked very hard. Well done to managing a busy lunch time. Would fully recommend to others. Well done to all involved in running the facility, will recommend to friends and family

It was raining hard when we arrived but had a warm and friendly welcolme as we entered. The food was excellent and the service prompt, with a smile and a friendly interest in us. We will certainly return again as local - especially with a 25% discount on Wednesdays once you join the Butcombe Loyalty Club.!

Lovely evening spent in this quaint traditional country inn. We had a fabulous meal with excellent service - highly recommend the fishcakes ! Our Sat Nav sent us down some narrow country roads to get there - glad we didn't encounter any oncoming traffic. Thankfully we found a more direct way home. We will definitely go again.
