Evershot


The small Dorset village of Evershot dates back about 1100 years, when it started simply as a Boar pen. Evershot is a traditional Dorset village with a church, with a ring of six bells, a post office, a shop, a school, a bakery and a traditional inn.


At 190m above sea level Evershot is the second highest village in Dorset and can be found just off the A37 midway between Yeovil (8 miles north) and the County town of Dorchester (9 miles south).


It is believed that the village has featured in various novels by Thomas Hardy and Summer Lodge, which was built in 1798 originally as a Dower house, features an example of Thomas Hardy’s talent as an architect. In 1979 it was converted to be an hotel – Summer Lodge Country House Hotel, Restaurant and Spa.

Acorn Inn,  Evershot, Dorset

Overview

The Acorn Inn in Evershot, near Dorchester, Dorset, offers quality Bed and Breakfast accommodation in an historic Inn.

This beautiful 16th Century coaching inn was called The Sow and Acorn in the Thomas Hardy novel Tess of the d’Urbervilles.

Set in the picturesque West Dorset village of Evershot, this lovely old stone-built Inn boasts worthy history. Originally known as The Kings Arms, it once brewed its own ales with water drawn from the source of the River Frome.

All the original charm and character of 400 years exudes from the beamed bars and log fires that greet guests on arrival. Nestling among the rolling hills in an area of outstanding beauty and close to the British Heritage Coastline, you have the perfect base for exploring or walking.

The ten en suite bedrooms are individually decorated and have their own style and character.
