WAGFINDER No photo yet · the business adds these when they claim

Seventeenth-century inn on High West Street in the middle of Dorchester, with a beer garden at the back and bedrooms above. It states plainly that it is dog friendly, and dogs are welcome in the rooms too, though additional charges may apply. Handy for Maumbury Rings and the Frome water meadows.

More from the owner

Photos, a sample menu and prices, any room details and the venue’s own house rules will appear here once the business claims this listing. Until then, what you see above is what we’ve checked and verified ourselves.

Is this your pub?

Claiming lets you add all of that and reply to reviews in your own name, right underneath them. £12.99 a month, no contract, and it never changes the verdict — the stamp stays ours.

Nobody has written one for The Old Ship Inn. If you have been with the dog, you would be the first — and the first review is the one everybody reads.

Read by a human before it appears. We never publish your email, and the business can reply underneath but can never take a review down.
