I booked to catch up with a friend mid point when staying in Dorset. We placed on a table middle of the pub which was so loud we struggled to hear each other. We both ordered fish & chips we didn’t take long to arrive. Was hoping for chunky homemade chips but were frozen. Fish was nice and came with peas. Finished off the meal with a coffee. All in all a nice time catching up with my friend albeit we went outside to be heard. Meal was pretty average. I would suggest if meeting up to book table in room off the main bar area

Had lived in the area 15 or so years ago and been to the Brace on plenty of occasions under revious owners so very interested to compare now and really happy at the current situation .The room we had [above the pub in the old style,there are additional rooms in the former bowling alley] was excellent in all respects ...Very large bed [actually two zipped together but no canyon at the join!] decent bathroom ,lots of instant hot water .Quiet . Breakfast decent . Matt an excellent host .Food in restaurant very very good . Recommended

Myself and my wife have just returned from a one night break. What an enjoyable and tranquil time we had. The room was spacious and comfortable and really had the feel of a wonderful countryside Inn. The bed was extremely comfortable. Looking out on to the quiet and picturesque village of Plush. The hosts were very welcoming, laid back and made you feel very at home. Our meal at the brace of pheasants was excellent, wide variety on offer and delicious. Breakfast was lovely with great choices too. We feel lucky to have stayed there, wouldn’t hesitate in recommending it to anyone else and are looking forward to staying over again. Thank you 🙂👍

What a lovely place! We were made very welcome, and enjoyed the very comfortable bedrooms where everything had been thought of. The garden was beautiful too. The evening menu was so good it took us ages to choose what we'd like, and we were not disappointed. The breakfast next morning was every bit as good, with lots of choice and everything locally sourced and/or home-made. The coffee too was excellent. I would thoroughly recommend the Brace of Pheasants for a visit or for a stay; we hope to visit again later this summer.

We stayed for one night in this delightful pub. Everything was exemplary - supper was delicious and there was a good range of local foods on the menu. Our rooms were immaculately clean and very comfortable. Breakfast was wonderfully fresh and served with a smile. Thoroughly recommend this venue for a relaxing break.
