THE NEW INN

Step into history at our beautiful 16th century coaching inn. An iconic landmark nestled in the heart of Cerne Abbas, often hailed as one of England’s most picturesque villages.

We are proud to be recognised in major guidebooks, and even more so to have been awarded County Dining Pub of the Year by The Good Pub Guide, a testament to our commitment to exceptional food and hospitality.

Our idyllic village location offers easy access to the charming towns of Weymouth, Bridport, and Shaftesbury, making us an ideal base for exploring Dorset. We’re also the perfect welcoming stop for travellers journeying to or from the stunning coastlines of Devon and Cornwall. Reaching us is easy, with a car journey from London taking approximately 2.5 hours. For those preferring public transport, excellent train services connect to nearby county towns, where we can help arrange convenient taxi transfers.
