The Benett Arms, hotel in Shaftesbury

The Benett Arms enjoys a location in Shaftesbury, 19 miles from Salisbury Train Station and 20 miles from Salisbury Racecourse.

We were 3 friends looking for a traditional English pub in a small village to stay at near to a few local golf courses to try. The Benett Arms in Semley did not disappoint. Great staff, location and a lovey pub with very comfortable rooms/ The food and drink was excellent with a lovely outdoor space to watch the locals (including a donkey) go by. Recommend the local fresh milkshake dispenser and farm shop. We will be back.

    Really lovely staff, helpful and super friendly. Every member of staff we dealt with from booking to check in, to breakfast to check out, was very warm and hospitable. Great location and perfect for our stay (which was to attend a wedding at Larmer Tree Gardens). Easy to find and lots of parking. Great value for money and the room was very clean. The toiletries in the room were a nice extra and water bottles and tea/coffee supplied. The pub looked very nice and breakfast was good.
