The Acorn Inn

Evershot, Dorset

Acorn Inn Stone Wall Background

Discover enchanting Dorset

Our charming 16th-century coaching inn transports you to the pages of a Thomas Hardy novel. Featured in Tess of the d’Urbervilles, our atmospheric inn boasts old beams, oak panelling, roaring fires and an original skittle alley. The beautiful rural setting in the heart of the Dorset countryside is complemented by our warm, attentive service and fine local cuisine..

We are delighted that our doors are open once more, and the Acorn team are looking forward to welcoming our guests back.
