The room was excellent as was the breakfast served over the weekend. To be honest the breakfast served on the Monday morning was not as good. Different chef I presume.

Delivery vehicles in the early hours of the morning leaving their engines running and banging and clattering around and even holding lengthy conversations under the window. Whilst I understand they need to make deliveries one wonders if they couldn't do it in the daylight hours or maybe the rooms by the delivery entrance might be given extra sound proofing.

The whole staff family were wonderful. Nothing was too much trouble. We were made to feel very welcome. Everyone talked to you or gave you a smile, even Neptune the cat would follow you or come over when you called his name. We loved the real log fires in lounge. Both the restaurant and room service was good and the breakfast was very well presented. The awareness of Covid19 in consideration to. The real bonus was the car charger onsite too.

I could hear a hum in our room which gave me a headache one evening. I would have liked a lamp near the sofa so that I could sew in the evening. I found our bed's mattress a little hard but my husband found it to be perfect.

The location fantastic; the staff friendly and helpful; the room superb in furnishings and spotlessly clean; the decor in the room and around the hotel was fabulous; the food was absolutely delicious; the peace and quiet was blissful; it was simply a wonderful stay in an excellent hotel and we can't wait to go back...what a find, delighted! It might be a 3* in facilities (even though it had everything we wanted/needed) but it is unquestionably a 4* in quality and service standards.

Not a thing. As an aside I think the fact the hotel shows as a 'Best Western' is a negative and may put people off (to be honest it nearly did me) as it in no way feels like that (I'm not even sure if it is a BW?), it is so much better than that brand projects (to me anyway) and gives it credit for, it feels like a wholly independent hotel run and managed by Jenny and Jon and their wonderful team. It is really lovely.

Our room was clean, comfortable and delightful. We had booked in for dinner in the evening and the food was very good. Breakfast was also very good and the presentation was excellent. We thought that the interior was beautifully designed with a great eye for detail.

To be honest, we were pleased with everything we saw and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. A lot of thought had gone into the presentation of rooms, meals, etc. and its often the little things that count so there was nothing we didn't like.

A quiet and beautiful rural setting but only 5 minutes drive from Sherbourne The building had a blend of luxury and grandeur whilst feeling warm and homely. A great sense of style and individuality in the decor Thoughtful free additions of wellies, maps, books and board games A gorgeous friendly cat, Jupiter Stylish, welcoming, and spacious bedrooms, well fitted with lighting and storage. Generous sized bed for a standard room (king size)

The mattress was quite firm which I liked, but my wife less so

The breakfast was very good, especially the yoghurt, fruit and granola pots. The evening meal was delicious and well cooked with fresh ingredients. Relaxing garden to enjoy in the evening. The staff were friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable.

The room was a generous size but some minor points - a dressing-table and chair rather blocked the doors in to the bathroom and wardrobes when one of us was sitting there using the mirror and power socket. Maybe the plug and dressing table could be moved to improve the layout in the room? Also, the lighting and position of mirrors in the bathroom could be better to enable viewing the back of your head. Minor points but would have made the room perfect!

Lovely quiet location but not far from Sherborne. Recently redecorated room had a view across open field. Very friendly and helpful staff. Comfortable bed and good sized en-suite bathroom. Food excellent with lovely view of pretty garden from the dining room so we were happy to have our evening meals there.

Perhaps a larger shower screen at side of the bath or a fixed shower head to help avoid spraying onto the floor would be helpful. As well as somewhere to hang the very large bath towels to dry.

Breakfast choice excellent.Bar service and choice also excellent. Thank you for room with bath which was requested. A really nice room.Slightly more choices on the menu

Slightly more choices on the menu would have been nice eg a chicken dish and maybe a mild curry.Also on the puddings more with fruit.

Very homely, staff were very helpful good attention to detail log fire actually burning and being attended to, free car de-icer and scrappers left by front door All the suppliers of Food & Drinks were named and locally sourced

Car Park was just past the hotel, was large and had plenty of space - downside was the smell in the car park from a septic tank

The room far exceeded expectations - lots of space, lovely and clean, great coffee machine and the bird feeder just outside the window was a really nice touch. Dinner on Friday night was delicious as was Saturday morning's breakfast - there's a reason its rated no1 locally. I can recommend the lamb and the yoghurt and fruit compote, as well as the full English breakfast.

There was nothing that we didn't like.
