Over 250 years old, The Fox Inn pub, restaurant and hotel is in a wonderfully peaceful location deep in the pretty Dorset countryside in the village of Ansty. Cosy yet full of light and space, The Fox Inn has been wholly refurbished but still maintains all the charm you might expect from an historic inn recognised as among Dorset’s most important hostelries. Soft lighting and oak panelled walls make for a romantic setting in The Fox’s dining room where chef proprietor Ian Chalmers and his team serve up their imaginative, sophisticated offerings made using all local, all fresh ingredients cooked to order and adapted to suit special requirements if necessary. As well as the main dining room The Fox Inn offers tables in a sunny garden room and outside on the patio, an especially adapted spot in the stunning sun-trap garden. The Fox Inn’s Sunday carvery is particularly popular with local families while the bar is known for its great selection of Dorset ales.
