The Pandy Inn is an outstanding example of a traditional, olde English hostelry residing at the centre of the sought after village of Dorstone, within the beautiful Herefordshire Golden Valley. The village is steeped in history and the original part of the property dates back to 1185, built by Richard De Brito to house workers constructing the nearby chapel; he built it as penance for his part in the murder of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Beckett at Canterbury Cathedral. It is widely regarded the property began trading as a hostelry circa 1600 and is reputed to have been used by Oliver Cromwell to take respite during the English Civil War.
The Pandy Inn is primarily of stone construction under a pitched slate roof with the original part of the building dating back to 1185. It is a property of immense character enjoying heavily beamed ceilings and walls, and exposed stone and flagstone floors. It also has the benefit of an outstanding cottage style garden, a suntrap in the warmer months.The pub sits at the heart of the sought after, rural Herefordshire village of Dorstone at the head of the beautiful Golden Valley. It sits beside the B4348, some four miles east of the internationally renowned ‘Town of Books’, Hay on Wye and ten miles to the west of the cathedral city of Hereford. There are a number of nearby attractions including Snodhill Castle and Arthur’s Stone. The village is also on the Pilgrim Trail which attracts a huge number of walkers and there are a number of walks starting from the village green into the surrounding area.
