Inspector comments
"Honest cooking in delightful village pub."
Overview
Surrounded by beautiful Dorset countryside, The Ilchester Arms dates back to the 16th century and is still very much the village hub. Unpretentious and welcoming, with an inglenook fireplace and large beer garden, there is a rustic simplicity about the pub and flavour-packed dishes make the most of seasonal local produce.

About the area
Dorset is made up of rugged coastlines, high chalk downlands and a chain of picturesque villages and seaside towns that make up Britain’s Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, noted for its layers of shale and numerous fossils embedded in the rock. Hidden gems of Dorset can be found down winding, country lanes that lead to snug villages hidden from view
