The Fox Inn was built over 250 years ago as the home of Charles Hall. In 1777 Charles Hall founded the Ansty Brewery at the same time as troops were assembling on the Dorsetshire coast anticipating a French invasion during the Napoleonic wars. The Brewery secured government contracts to supply ale to the troops and quickly grew.Although set deep in the Dorset countryside the Fox Inn is ideally situated within easy access of a host of diverse leisure activities. Visit our region and discover 150km of breathtaking coastline - most of which comprises the Jurassic Coast, England's only UNESCO natural World Heritage Site - , the ancient hunting ground of the National Park of The New Forest, and some of the country's finest rural countryside, a large part of which is officially designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. If you're feeling active, ramble along miles of footpaths, follow our cycle trails, or make the most of the area's outstanding watersports facilities which the 2012 Olympic sailing athletes will use ... if your interest is in heritage, the area offers numerous historic houses, gardens, ancient castles and forts ... enjoy the region's lively seaside resorts and busy maritime harbours ... or simply recharge your batteries and be reinspired by an area of stunning countryside views, idyllic villages and market towns.We have 11 well appointed en-suite letting bedroom, including 4 recently refurbished superior rooms. Warm, welcoming and always a reflection of the rich, rural life found in the middle of Dorset, the Fox Bar and Lounge is popular with residents, visitors and locals. The main restaurant provides a traditional and relaxing atmosphere in which to dine with soft lighting, oak panelled walls and low ceilings.
