The Black Horse dates back to the early 1900s and was originally the stables to a large farm. Traditionally decorated, this smart, attractive venue with its picket fence and hanging baskets has wooden beams and all types of horse artefacts from ‘the bit to the saddle’, in keeping with it’s original purpose. Today, this is now a family run business which is taking care to serve quality homemade food, including a delicious Sunday roast along with frequent interesting special offers. We serve a range of quality beers, ales, wines and a selection of soft drinks. This is a child friendly pub where we encourage families to dine with us. Set in the small but busy village of Sturminster Marshall we are pleased to see our regular locals but also tourists and day trippers. Anyone on their travels to Poole will pass us. We are close to Wimborne and eight miles from the beach at Sand Banks. Whether you are on your way to or from the beach we are perfect for taking in a drink or meal so be sure to
