Charming countryside vibe in Blandford Forum 🌿🍽️

The brekkie was dik and super lekker! Staff were friendly, totally made us feel at home. We loved the cozy feel of the place, such a gem in the countryside with bushveld views!

Had a bit of a struggle finding transport on the weekend, wish there were more options for getting around.

outdoor dining

charming, charming, charming

The atmosphere is absolutely charming, with picturesque low-beamed ceilings and delightful rustic decor that transport you to another era. I enjoyed the cozy double room, where every detail exuded warmth and character. The outdoor seating with a pizza kitchen offered one of the best pizzas I've ever tasted, making my evenings truly special.

strongly recommend 😊❤️

Charming thatched building, spacious double room, quaint outdoor features

Room decor could use some refurbishment!!! Noise from the beer garden was intrusive, affecting comfort at night!!! The bathroom amenities felt inadequate and poorly placed during my stay!!!

wood-fired pizza

Had a warm and welcoming vibe from the start, the outdoor seating area was cute with patio heaters which made it cozy at night. Loved that they had a wood-fired pizza oven, food was bangin'!

Everything went smoothly.

basic bathroom

The room was clean and quite spacious with a super comfy bed, which made for a great night’s sleep. I appreciated the loads of storage, perfect for a longer stay. The bathroom had a nice big shower, and everything felt fresh and well-maintained. it did get a bit too warm even with the windows open, which was a bit uncomfortable. But honestly, I’d totally stay here again!

Great spot for a weekend getaway with friends! Enjoyed our stay after exploring the stunning coast and countryside. The breakfast was well-organized, and the staff were super welcoming. Our room was clean with good facilities. Definitely recommend the pub’s dinner specials. Don't miss out on the crayfish salad!

excessive pricing

The Anvil Inn boasts a charming and warm atmosphere with delightful outdoor seating and friendly staff who make you feel welcome. Our double room was cozy, albeit a bit snug. While the food was good overall, the pricing for bottled wine seemed excessive compared to ordering by the glass.

Had a lovely double room with a private bathroom, shower, and free toiletries. The flat-screen TV and electric kettle were nice touches. Everything was clean and the heating was great. The staff were super accommodating. Breakfast was tasty with many choices. Cozy vibe throughout.
