Not only are we reputed to be the oldest inn in the county, we're also lucky enough to have the friendliest regulars. At The Pandy; there are no strangers, just friends you haven't made yet. We're located on the village green in the unspoilt Herefordshire village of Dorstone, just 4 miles from Hay- on-Wye, home to the world famous Hay Festival. There are various stories of how the building came into being but most say the original building was built in 1185 and was used to house workers constructing a chapel attached to the parish church. The chapel was built by the family of Sir Richard de Brito, one of the knights involved with the murder of Archbishop Thomas a Beckett, in expiation of his sins. The Pandy Inn has been an Inn since the 17th century and was supposedly visited by Oliver Cromwell during the English Civil War. Today, the Inn retains its historic character and is a traditional English pub. We are surrounded by the beautiful countryside of The Golden Valley, a popular destination for walkers and cyclists. The Pandy Inn garden is a great place to relax after a walk or cycle ride in the summer; and with several wood burners, it's a cosy place to enjoy a winter evening. Another reason to visit us, are our selections of real ales (Grey Trees JPR,  Butty Bach, Doombar and a weekly changing guest ale); our extremely good wine list; and a fine range of non-alcoholic drinks. We also serve Stowford Press,  Aspalls Harry Sparrow and local cider Gwatkins on tap. Finally, we serve Staropramen and Carling for the lovers of lager.
