Fox & Hounds pub in Wimborne set to close for revamp

The Fox & Hounds, a grade II listed pub in Little Canford, Wimborne, will close from Tuesday, May 6, for renovations.

It will reopen in June with a fresh look following investment from owners Chef & Brewer.

The investment will see major improvements to the pub's exterior, including a refurbished outdoor area with new garden furniture and lighting.

The interior will be modernised, with new furnishings to create a "seamless" look.
