A friendly and inclusive community pub, at the heart of a working countryside village.

Enjoy a taste of local life in our thriving rural community.

Located in the charming and historic village of Damerham, we are the heart of this community.

All are welcome to enjoy watching a folk band with the friendly locals, relax with a lazy afternoon watching the cricket from our garden, or make the catch of your life at the village’s two trout fisheries.

Our warm atmosphere make us ideal for shoot suppers, wine-tasting evenings, and memorable special occasions tailored to your requirements.

A fitting place for all communities.

The McLaren Automobile Owners Club use the The Compasses Inn as a place to stop and enjoy a refreshing cold drink on a beautiful summers day. We are proud to be a host and a community hub for all functions and gatherings in The New Forest and East Dorset region.

The heart of The New Forest Festive Community.

A perfect place to join your friends and family for festive celebrations across the month of December. We are proud to host annual Christmas Parties for local businesses and sports teams such as Lobster Cricket Club and Allenford farm.
