Houseboats in Dorset

"Lovely hotel with friendly staff in great location. It has recently been taken over by new management and they are planning on tidying it up, which it needs in some areas. (For example frayed carpet on stairs.) But the room was comfortable and we were upgraded for free to a bigger room as there was space. Trevor and Scott were both ver helpful. Location perfect and next to some great restaurants and bars."

"Wonderful views and location. Staff exceptional and food was great. Accommodation very good. Would happily rebook again."

"Excellent food. Parking difficult at times . "

"Quiet, clean, safe & friendly staff. Would 100% stay here again. "

"This is our third stay in this lovely hotel. I love it, they’re so friendly, very welcoming. It’s so close to all amenities & the harbour. My only criticism was that they no longer offer a parking permit or concession for the bays outside the front. I have a blue badge and my husband had to park the car in the Pavilion at a cost of £15 per day. "

"Quality establishment, beautiful area and the breakfast was the best I’d had in a long time. "

"Lovely room, loved the fact that water and tissues were provided. Bit of a hiccup on checking in but it was soon resolved. Staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was lovely, large choice, freshly cooked. Easy check out. Good size free car park."

"Great location and plenty of parking. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast and dinner lively. Staff friendly and helpful. "

"Excellent junior suite. Newly built. Excellent restaurant and breakfast, free parking. The hotel is a 20 min walk from the centre of Sherborne. We will stay at the hotel again when travelling through Dorset. Highly recommend."
