The Greyhound Inn

The Greyhound Inn is a dog-friendly pub in Corfe Castle, close to Swanage, where dogs are welcome inside and out. Sitting in the shadow of the castle ruins, it's a natural stop for anyone walking the village or exploring the Purbeck Hills with a dog in tow.

The pub makes a practical base for Corfe Castle day-trippers and walkers coming through Purbeck and the location means you can keep your dog with you rather than splitting the group. Village parking is the usual approach. That straightforward access is the detail that turns a quick drink or meal into a genuine break for the whole group.

Whether you're finishing a climb or pausing between ruins and ramparts, it's the kind of place where muddy paws and post-walk thirst are both understood. Dogs are genuinely welcome throughout, so you can settle in without the usual door-shuffle.
