The building is a beautiful traditional inn hid away in the Dorset countryside. The inclusive breakfast is as it should be. The proprietors and staff are kind and helpful. Allow plenty of time to drive there to allow time in the comfortable cosy bar.

We've wanted to visit Dorchester Museum for a long time.

We've wanted to visit Dorchester Museum for a long time. It did not disappoint. So much Dorset-specific and some fabulous fossils! Lovely cafe in the museum too. Market Day is a Wednesday in Dorchester best visited in morning as they wind up early afternoon.

Wasn't sure what to expect but have to say Dorchester wasn't very inspiring as towns go. Two railway stations, both a fair walk from the main town streets. There's a museum and gallery but it was £15 to get in so I didn't bother. Not very exciting shops, I believe there's probably an out of town retail park but hard to access if you don't have a car.

Plenty of parking. Good selection of shops. Fair amount of attractions e.g. Tolpuddle Martyrs Museum, within 45 minutes drive away. Local bus service seemed available for some of them. Attractive countryside.

We loved it all, friendly staff 😀 Everything so clean and Everything supplied that you wanted or needed above and beyond. Beds really comfortable a good night's sleep as so quiet. A great inn to stay,eat,drink. Lovely little stream running with a cute bridge. Lovely village, plenty of parking at venue. Certainly have recommended it already to people, will definitely revisit this inn.

Dorchester is a quaint town that is always a pleasure to visit. It has a brilliant market and there are plenty of shops to visit. It it well served with different museums and the Tutankhamun and Terracotta Army ones are a definite visit for me. There are also plenty of cafes to have some amazing food.

For us, it's always essential WHO runs a place. Jocelyn and Carl, you made our stay at your house a hundred percent enjoyable! The room we stayed in was very nice, the breakfast Jocelyn prepared and Carl served was the best we had during our stay in England, and we did see lots of places!

The hotel is out of Dorchester centre but was perfect for our overnight stay. The checkin was easy. We had a meal that night and the staff was tentative and friendly. Rooms quite spacious and loved the radio playing as we opened the door! Beds are really comfortable. Breakfast was great.
