The Trooper Inn has been at the heart of Stourton Caundle village life for hundreds of years.
Our independent, family-run pub is popular with locals and visitors alike.
We have a beautiful courtyard to the rear of the pub and an expanded beer garden to the side, as well as the seating to the front where you can watch the world go by – tractors, dog-walkers and may be a car.
Steeped in history, in the heart of the Blackmore Vale, this is a wonderful region to explore and we are close to the ancient market towns of Sherborne and Sturminster Newton and the borders of Somerset and Wiltshire.

Had Sunday lunch here yesterday with my daughter - both went for the lamb roast which was excellent and a delicious strawberry roulade for dessert. Staff very friendly and efficient in this lovely rural pub - we'll be back!
Tonight's village supper was really top quality. Thoroughly recommended. My wife and I had the Turkey hotpot and our daughter had the vegetarian option. Best meal out for ages!
One of the best roast dinners we have ever had! Took the whole family and everyone enjoyed the food and the service. We had to do a 5 mile walk afterwards, to walk off the huge portions! It was a really nice day, with the sun shining and a lovely atmosphere! We will be coming again very soon! We are also interested in trying out the curry night! Thanks!!
Spent a wonderful Bank Holiday Monday lunch here today. Extensive drinks menu with very good and very local real ales which old George enjoyed. Excellent service from Joe and a menu that catered to our disparate tastes. Both the cheese burger and vegetarian burger were very tasty and more than sufficient for a good appetite. The in laws had the beetroot and Brie tart and the gluten free variation of the same, both served with well dressed and fresh salad.and were very well received. We will be back soon and can only hope for a similarly excellent pub in our village of Milborne Port.
This pub has served its village fantastically well throughout the covid-19 pandemic and the villagers appreciate the pub team for everything they've done! Breaking News. Camping is Back!
