This place suits me perfectly. I love the free wi-fi, flat-screen TV, and the electric kettle in my room. The staff was incredibly helpful during my first stay, assisting with evening plans. I can't wait to return for Christmas!

Lawn and pond area, Quiet countryside location, Comfortable seating areas
The mattress felt quite uncomfortable, the bathroom lacked adequate ventilation!!! I expected better quality toiletries for the price!!! The TV in the room was disappointingly small for such a nice setting!!!

The beautiful countryside view from our room was truly
Breathtaking. We enjoyed our stay, but the breakfast tables were a bit cramped, which made it less enjoyable to start the day. the comfort and ambiance made up for the minor setback.

fantastic central spot for exploring dorchester's best parks and museums
I had an enjoyable time at this charming hotel where I indulged in a delicious three-course meal and appreciated the lovely, welcoming staff who made my stay memorable. plus, with the Dinosaur Museum just less than a 30-minute walk away and Kingston Maurward Park and Gardens only 800 meters away, it was perfect for my city strolls and a relaxing park view.

The garden exudes charm and serenity while the spacious family room provided comfort for our stay. The staff were welcoming and attentive, making our experience enjoyable.
The location, while nice, could benefit from a bit more accessibility to key attractions.

I appreciated the locally sourced food and the friendly staff during my stay. We had a pleasant experience overall but had an issue with the taxi fare after calling one from the accommodation. It became quite an expensive journey during what was supposed to be a celebration.
The taxi fare was more than expected and left a negative impression on the night.

We just spent two nights in a delightful family room, and everything was perfect! The homemade cookies were a lovely surprise, and the dinners were simply exquisite, especially the crab soufflé. Our daughter had a blast and was genuinely treated like royalty. Definitely returning!

This cozy retreat in rural Dorset amazed me from start to finish. The room offered stunning views of the fields, making mornings delightful. I appreciated the thoughtful touches like homemade flapjacks and a large bottle of water in the room. Breakfast was a highlight with an impressive selection. I indulged in the black pudding, which was a standout. The evening meal was high-class dining, and I felt spoiled by the attentive staff, especially on my birthday when they surprised me with chocolate truffles. The only hiccup was a bit of noise from the plumbing at night, which was an inconvenience but didn’t overshadow my overall enjoyment.
