Quite a strange experience, sat in a corner by the fire as we walked in, waited quite some time to be sat at a table which were mostly empty so not sure whe we weren't sat at a table from the beginning.
Food was poor. Unseasoned and I had a pie which was like soup with the amount of liquid in it. As for service although they were friendly and pleasant we had to ask for our glasses to be filled once empty, ask for napkins, not the end of the world. But a little more attention to minor details like this go a long way.
I paid by cash and my change wasn't given. Ended up leaving in the end and going for a drink to the pub across the road.
I would not recommend this restaurant personally as we also traveled a long way to dine there based on the current high star reviews. Such a shame.

I recently dined at La Fosse in Cranbourne and had a very positive experience. The taster menu, complemented by a selection of wines, was both tasty and well-prepared. The food quality was impressive and the prices were very reasonable, offering good value for money. A recommended spot for a pleasant meal in Cranborne!

Went here for Christmas Dinner as a foursome. The restaurant has a great ambiance. It's small, only containing a few tables. It's been owned and run for years by a lovely friendly couple. There's a cosy lounge area adjacent to the dining area, where we were shown and where we had our pre-dinner drinks.The quality of the food was excellent. I had soup to start and the traditional roast turkey dinner for my main. They did offer the traditional christmas pudding for dessert. However, I declined this as I had no room left !I thoroughly recommend this restaurant, located in the lovely village of Cranborne. You will definitely need to book before hand.

We went here recently through floods and autumnal winds but it was well worth it. We were sat for pre dinner drinks on comfortable sofa's in front of a roaring log burner. The service and food could not have been better. We booked to go back before we left!

Fab! We couldn't have felt more welcome! Lovely service, super food - what more could you ask for? If you are considering a visit, don't delay - book! I would highly recommend the cheese board too - that is if you have room for it!

Great night with friends and families from our local ski club at La Fosse last night.The food, drinks and cosy atmosphere was great and well worth the 25 minute trip from Salisbury. Will definitely visit again!

We cycled from Wareham to Cranborne and stayed the night. Had dinner , bed and breakfast. Cycled back home the following day. The host was extremely welcoming and took our wet bikes away and stored them safely overnight. Had a delicious evening meal in a very relaxed dining experience. It is always lovely to have a meal and then just wander upstairs to bed. We had a basic room but with cowshed toiletries so a little touch of luxury. Breakfast the following morning was extremely good and when we checked out the host was very friendly and gave us some good tips of other places to eat in the local area. We would definitely recommend.

My partner and I stayed for one night and we could not have been more delighted with our stay. We were on a cycling tour and turned up late. The town was closed up to buy food or have a meal so Mark kindly offered to put us together a cheese board. (Not your typical cheeses board), it was fantastic! The bedroom was clean and comfortable and had everything you needed. Shower was excellent. Breakfast was fantastic, the whole experience was faultless.

We had a wonderful evening celebrating a special birthday. We love the friendly, unhurried approach. We felt like house guests welcomed into the La Fosse home. The food was delicious, the service friendly and knowledgeable, especially about the local ingredients. Don't just go for special occasions, go with the changing seasons and enjoy Mark's creativity and Emmanuelle's warm welcome.
