A historic town pub in the heart of Beaminster
The Greyhound Inn is a charming old pub located in the historic market town of Beaminster. Full of character and local heritage, the traditional inn offers a comfortable, warm space to experience authentic Dorset hospitality. It serves as a central town retreat for locals, visitors, and ramblers looking to relax after a day spent exploring the streets or the surrounding countryside.
