Best Western Shaftesbury The Royal Chase Hotel

8/10 Good

"Breakfast very good"

Plumber Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Plumber Manor is a perfect place to stay if you want a peaceful retreat in beautiful gardens , a comfortable bed and delicious food. It has a well stocked bar and the wine prices are reasonable. The only negative was the wifi was weak in the courtyard room we stayed in which caused ‘buffering’ when watching a film. We mentioned it to staff and it will be rectified. It is a family owned hotel so the service feels personal. Somewhere we would definitely like to return to. There are many interesting places to visit nearby, including the Jurassic coast and National Trust properties. The hotel staff will help to plan your day."

Crown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely old hotel and our indulgence plus room was beautiful and elegant we loved the deep copper bath where we indulged in a luxurious soak on the night of our stray together with the hot powerful shower the next morning"

Hunters Lodge Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Helpful and friendly staff. Very good spacious room with rural view. Nice bar with good local Otter and Butcombe ale. Good help yourself breakfast."

"Can’t fault The Anvi. The staff, food and room all excellent. Would not hesitate to go back there if we get the chance."

"Really lovely property. Our room was huge and very well appointed. The breakfast was excellent and the staff extremely friendly. A real gem of a place to stay. Will definitely be back."

"Absolutely beautiful! Better than the pics! The food was delicious."

The Oak at Dewlish

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely place...................................."

The Nog Inn

10/10 Excellent

"The room was lovely. Ground floor and probably wheelchair accessible though to get there you have to walk through the pub including down 3 steps and along a cobbled path. A large room, wonderfully comfy bed and large TV which has access to iPlayer. The bathroom is stunning and very up to date with a walk-in shower and a bath. Little details include hooks for coats and a freestanding rail. Although there was a small heated towel rail in the bathroom ideally a towel rail is needed to hold all the towels, but especially for the wash basin. There's only a small window, which is covered though openable and the room became quite stuffy though a fan was available. The evening meal was cooked to order and perfect. A great choice was available. Breakfast was as substantial as you want it to be and the full English was delicious. We managed to park in the small private car park opposite but it could do with smartening up and marking out for maximum efficiency of space. The staff were friendly and very efficient."
