Excellent cottage hotel with lovely comfortable good size room with views of the countryside for a recent stay for work and has ample parking. There’s a lovely breakfast menu but I wasn’t able to try it as had to get to work in the morning. I’ll definitely recommend this hotel which is just 7 minutes drive from Dorchester town. Owner was lovely and makes you feel at home. Thanks
