According to the February 2009 edition of 'the Visitor', the Crown is now open again.

According to today's local paper (9 Jan 2009), "One of Dorset’s most famous pubs closed this week when its tenant went into liquidation.
But it is hoped The Crown at Marnhull, best known as The Pure Drop Inn in Thomas Hardy’s Tess of the D’Urbervilles, will be up and running again as soon as possible." A pity, as it was a very good place.

A great local pub which is also worth going out of your way to visit. Well kept Hall and woodhouse beer plus a draft cider. Plenty of wines by the glass etc. Good food (reasonably priced)served in adjacent restaurant area. Large but cosy L shaped interior, flagstones and some settles. Local bands on most Friday nights. Large garden. Friendly young landlord has been tennant for about 3 years. Some piped music but not too loud.

Well deserved award. Excellent beer - food still just as good.

Another excellent meal - huge choice. Badger beer still the best.
