(1045)

The Castle Inn is a traditional Dorset pub close to Lulworth Cove, with a history dating back to the 16th century. Immaculately restored throughout, it is the ideal base for exploring Dorset’s stunning Jurassic coastline and the beautiful countryside of the Isle of Purbeck. Under the picture-postcard thatched roof is a charming bar, relaxed dining room and 12 gorgeous boutique bedrooms. Outside, there’s a large paved courtyard and idyllic terraced garden with amazing views. Our laid-back atmosphere and friendly service make it the perfect home from home, where the whole family (not forgetting the dog) can unwind and soak up all that this unique corner of Dorset has to offer.

What an evening with , celebrating our collaboration b**r, Hops & Glory, at the debut ‘Battle of the Brewers’ event at The Prince of Burford!

Guests enjoyed a fantastic selection of b**rs from both breweries, perfectly paired with canapés, while hearing the stories from behind each brew from the experts who brought them to life.

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us and helped make the evening so special- we can’t wait to do it all again at the sold-out Battle of the Brewers event at The Punch Bowl in London. See you there! 🍻
