From one glance at The Ness, you’ll be able to tell it is rich in history, charm and magic. The pub and hotel was originally built in 1810 as the summer home of the infamous Clifford family, who, as rumour has it, enlarged their fortune through smuggling (via the secret tunnel just behind the pub).
Now owned and operated by Dorset brewer Hall & Woodhouse, you’ll be in warm, welcoming hands for your visit.
