The Greyhound Inn

General information

The Greyhound Corfe Castle, is nestled in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck between Swanage and Lulworth Cove on the Jurassic Coastal path. The pub is easily reached via the Swanage Steam Railway or the Sandbanks Car ferry to Studland Bay.

The main access route by car is via Wareham or via the Weymouth road. Numerous cycle paths, mountain biking tracks or rambling routes lead you to the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, Corfe Castle.

The Greyhound is a family friendly traditional old English Country pub specialising in fresh local food, real ales and traditional ciders.

We are passionate about food and our numerous food and ale festivals are tribute to this.

We source local and make it focal

The original Purbeck Stone building is a eclectic mix and old and new, the building dates back to fifteenth century and is steeped in history. Boasting solid oak and purbeck stones floors, modern leather and teak chairs and wonderful visual art by well known photographers and artists.

An ideal location for anyone out and about in Jurassic country - cyclists , dog owners, families , ramblers, day trippers or b@b guests, the large outdoor garden is perfect for a sundowner, people watch or to simply watch the steam train.

We cater for large parties/ group bookings, the only venue to offer take aways in Corfe Castle and children's parties. The large garden is suitable for mountain bikes, muddy rambler boots, pets and garden area for children to have fun.

Surrounded by four camp sites, Burnbake, Norden Farm, Woody Hyde and Woodlands (caravan club ), the pub garden provides campers with a chilled out relaxed atmosphere to sample real ales on tap or try some freshly made great value pub food.

The pub is open all year round; with children and pets most very welcome.
