The welcome we had was lovely. 
Our room is superb, attention to detail and the finishing touches are the icing on the cake.
The menu is very extensive as is the “Specials Board”
Food is cooked to a very high standard and presentation is great.
Breakfast is also done to a high standard and is freshly cooked, the porridge is just how it should be.
The only downside…. We had to check out 
Superb location for touring the area.

This is a little gem.

I needed somewhere to stay at short notice near Minterne Magna.     I knew of the Hunters Moon as it  had popped up in my family history research and I discovered that my Great, great, great grandfather owned it when it was known as the White Horse over 160 years ago!     It turned out to be a very nice pub with a great atmosphere and friendly staff.   It was quite busy which is always a good sign and there was a good choice of beers including local ones.     The room I had booked turned out to be comfortable and clean .  The bed was also very comfortable.     A good selection of options for breakfast which was on offer which nicely cooked and well presented.      All in all I was very pleased with my stay which was good value for money.    I'd certainly be happy to stay here again.   😊

A great overnight stay !

We popped on our way home on the off chance we could get a table and we were not disappointed. We got a warm welcome from the friendly staff and our meal was lovely. Cannot wait to return next time we are passing and we may have to make an excuse to drive out. 

Perfect

There is no better landlord in the county, hands down! The atmosphere and service is faultless and the welcoming vibe is rare these days. 

The food is excellent, (with a very extensive menu), as are all the staff, and great to see a pub who've put some thought into a QUALITY music set up. Highly recommended. 

Best Landlord in the County

Stayed here in November 2022 for two weeks. I thought that this is a really great place to stay. An old pub, circa 1700s not far from Dorchester. They have about 8 rooms available to stay in. Room - good size, nice clean bed and the usual wardrobe etc. On-suite shower was fine. Breakfast (excellent) or packed lunch included in price. Evening meals were extra but were very reasonably priced. Evening meals were delicious and freshly cook by their chef. Venison and beef cottage pie was spectacular. Meals were a bit too large for me, but many options are offered in child-sized portions too. Service was courteous, fast and the staff were genuinely helpful. Three real ales on tap when I was there,  mainly from Butcombe brewery. Free WiFi was reliable in my room and the bar / restaurant area. Parking excellent in their large car park. Only 10 minutes from Cerne Abbas giant and about 20 to Dorchester and the coast. I recommend this hotel.

Lovely pub and restaurant in the heart of Dorset.

We stopped over at hunters moon on our final night of our London to Devon cycle ride- a group of 10 family and friends. We had a lovely stay, the rooms were comfortable and clean and nice hot showers. Dean was very welcoming and went out of his way to help us. We had dinner and breakfast - both great meals and breakfast was put on early for us to help us leave early. Would highly recommend and would stay again!

Great stop over on Cycle Trip

Simply brilliant. Very welcoming and a fantastic manager who made everyone feel at home from the moment we arrived.  The accomodation is great and the meals are excellent. Beautiful location and the building is full of character. Can't wait to visit again.

Brilliant visit

Called in with friends from the North mainly to ask directions. I had never stopped here before. Staff and customers were so pleasant and helpful we bought a round and had a chat. Food looked so good we decided to have a meal and another round. Our meal was absolutely 100 % excellent. Could not fault a thing. In fact we were so impressed we booked for the Sunday roast next day. That also was superb and extremely reasonably priced. My friends and i Ioved the whole experience. Definitely plan to visit again whenever possible.

Note to any aspiring pub landlords. Check this Hunters Moon out if you want to see how to run a proper pub. I really can't recommend it any higher.

Stumbled on a Diamond

Excellent lunch. Recommended by the good beer guide. Tried other places first but this was the only place serving food on a Monday. Tuna steak and beef burger great. Wish we had brought the dog as it was very dog friendly. Very cosy pew by the real fire.

Excellent lunch

i went to the hunters moon on Sunday for lunch with , sister , daughter and grand daughter. Had a good welcome , the pub was warm and welcoming . Staff very pleasant .  We had a very good carvery and the beef was excellent , seeing that it came from Devon  were i live . My grand daughter  had a very hearty meal and pudding afterwards , seeing she is nine years old !!.   All very good and also the staff including the landlord  had a great sense of humour!!! ,. Well worth the 4 hour drive .
