Travellers describe The Marquis of Lorne as a welcoming rural inn with consistently excellent food and standout breakfasts, friendly staff, and a peaceful setting, with several noting scenic views and a relaxing atmosphere away from busy towns.
The rural location appeals to many, though several reviews note narrow, single-track lanes that can make access feel challenging. Rooms are generally comfortable, but a few guests found them small or dark, and there are occasional remarks about small or uncomfortable beds. A couple of reviewers mention the bar being closed in the afternoon, which can feel restrictive. Overall, expect a quiet countryside stay with character.

This is a lovely quaint country pub with a lovely pub garden and grounds. Very nice room - may be small for some given the nature of the old building. Breakfast good. Although only 10 minutes from Bridport it feels out of the way as down very narrow windy country lanes.

A quaint, charming little pub with rooms to stay. We booked our stay after a helicopter ride. Tracey and her team were welcoming and friendly. Our room was clean and had everything you would expect with the added bonus of homemade cookies to go with your complementary tea or coffee, there was a small fridge where you could fill your little milk jug with fresh milk (which was better than the little milk pods), you had toiletries in the bathroom so you could just turn up and really enjoy your stay. We reserved a table at the restaurant as we were a party of four, we had a drink outside in the sun which was enjoyable and then sat inside for our meal. The menu is varied with so much choice for all three courses, there was so much to choose from and we were totally spoilt for choice!!! Really impressed with the food and quality of food... The breakfast the following day again was superb...fresh fruit, cereal, yogurt toast, fresh orange juice and a home cooked breakfast....it really did set you up for the day!!! To sum it up a lovely time was had by all of us. I would recommend highly a stay here for the night or a visit to sample the excellent food and service. Wish we had a local pub like this we would be over the moon, you rarely find such fantastic food, choices and service in a beautiful surrounding.. to get all three is rare.... Thank you for making our stay so delightful.

If you fancy a comfortable, clean and friendly Dorset inn with the best of breakfasts and delicious high quality meals, book in at The Marquis of Lorne. Surrounded by wonderful views, walking paths and close to the sea. Great for relaxing without children, also great for young families - an excellent garden play area.

We like the location very much. We were out both evenings, so we didn’t experience the pub itself, which was a shame. The bedroom was a bit dark. The mattress was not comfortable, with a bit of a ridge in the middle! That is different to the classic old mattress with a gulley in the middle! Breakfast was excellent. We really liked the landlady, who couldn’t have done more for us.

We reserved a table at the restaurant as we were a party of four, we had a drink outside in the sun which was enjoyable and then sat inside for our meal. The menu is varied with so much choice for all three courses, there was so much to choose from and we were totally spoilt for choice!!! Really impressed with the food and quality of food...

What a lovely last minute booking we made - great find albeit in the middle of nowhere 😂 We were made very welcome from the minute we arrived until we went home. Homemade biscuits were a lovely touch in the room. Nothing was any trouble, the staff were amazing. The property was a fabulous period property in a quiet location. Food was very good, vast menu, fresh local ingredients - excellent choice. If I had one criticism, it would be milk for tea/coffee in the rooms - there is a fridge in the hallway with milk to fill a small jug from your room. It’s great to have fresh milk, however when I went to the fridge so I could make a morning cuppa, the fridge was bare ☹️ missed my morning cuppa - I would suggest having a couple of large jugs of milk so that there is always milk available. but other than that it was fab. Breakfast was included and was nice - to avoid waste it’s cook to order and I’m sure you could just ask for more if wanted.

Breakfast and dinner was great, very tasty. Great service from the friendly staff. One of the pictures on your website (Hotels.com) is of Durdle Door, and it definitely isn't 1 minute walk from the accommodation, it's an hour's drive away.

This is a little gem of a place. If you like it quiet, friendly, great place to eat, this is for you. The four nights we were there, could not have been any better. Tracey, Steve and all the staff could not have been any kinder.
