About The Brace of Pheasants - Inn

Guests at The Brace of Pheasants - Inn wake up in one of just eight en-suite rooms tucked above a traditional pub in the Dorset village of Plush, near Dorchester. It's a simple, comfortable setup rather than a grand one, with each room offering a private bathroom and the sort of quiet that comes with a rural setting.

Downstairs, the inn does the heavy lifting: a restaurant and bar for meals and drinks, breakfast to start the day, and a garden with outdoor seating for warmer weather. Free WiFi runs throughout, there's a kitchen and meeting rooms for those who need them, and luggage storage is on hand for guests breaking up a longer journey. Free on-site parking makes it an easy stop for those exploring by car.

Plush itself is a small village, but there are further pubs, bars and restaurants nearby along with entertainment options for evenings out. It makes a straightforward base for touring the surrounding Dorset countryside and the nearby town of Dorchester.
