    Delicious Food and Friendly Vibes!

    We savored the unique 'Jospered' style for dinner. It was a culinary delight! The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff, even if the room temperature was a bit warm. Don't miss indulging in their fantastic wine selection.

    Our breakfast was enjoyable with ample food. We were given modern, neat room with many thoughtful touches. The location of this hotel short walk to spacious restaurant, and Somerset and Dorset was great and stunning.

    Nothing not to love.

    The outdoor courtyard setup works well for casual gatherings, especially with the heaters keeping things cozy despite the rain. Food quality shines through with well-prepared dishes. The detail in presentation and use of fresh ingredients stands out.

    The so-called luxury room felt dated, capturing more of an old-school boarding house vibe rather than the upscale experience expected from a five-star rating. I found cobwebs in multiple corners and marks on the sheets, less than appealing. The air conditioning unit blasted out hot air rather than cooling was great, while the wifi required numerous attempts to connect. Plus, the limited breakfast selection left much to be desired. The cooked options didn't meet the expectations set by the hotel's luxury claim.

    perfectly placed for exploring charming landmarks and parks

    The room was tasteful and comfy, although I wished for softer lighting in the bar for a cozier atmosphere.

    comfy room
    delicious breakfast
    sun terrace
    spotty wifi

    The room was super comfy with a massive shower, and breakfast was a real treat! I loved unwinding in the sun terrace after a long day. Just a heads-up, the wifi was a bit spotty at times, but it didn’t ruin my stay. 😊

    air conditioning unit
    inconsistent performance

    I recently attended a wedding ceremony here and it exceeded my expectations. The cozy bar was a perfect spot to relax, and our luxury double nice furniture with a super comfy bed. The staff were great.

    the air conditioning unit was inconsistent.

    good breakfast
    old throw

    Lovely location and staff

    We had a fab 2-night stay! The room was decent, but the black throw needs replacing, definitely. The wet room was really nice and the shower was spot on. Breakfast was delish, just a shame the toast never showed up. They've got a cool bar area too! It felt pricy, though, not sure if it's just the time of year.

    stewed partridge
    good staff
    breakfast feast
    parking confusion
    no dog-friendly room

    Oh, what a treat! The stewed partridge left me dreaming, and the scotch egg? Pure magic! Plus, the staff were an absolute delight. Breakfast was a proper feast too!

    A cheeky niggle was finding the car park entrance in the dark, and I missed having a dog-friendly room. But let's face it, everything else just sparkled!

    Great hotel with its cozy bar, powerful wi-fi, delicious restaurant meals, and cute staff. I fondly remember when they helped return my forgotten jewellery. I can't wait to return for another stay next year!

    lacking service
    room for improvement

    The atmosphere at this pub is charming, with lovely decor and a cozy feel. While the food, including the steak and burger, was fantastic, the service was a bit lacking at times. A pleasant experience but room for improvement.

    comfortable room
    delicious breakfast

    The king's arms is such a lovely spot! Our luxury double room was warm and cozy, with a super comfy bed. Breakfast was cooked to order and the freshly squeezed orange juice was the best. The staff was really cute, and they even made us toast when the power went out during breakfast. Fantastic service!

    dated decor
    room noise

    Charming outdoor seating, Unique local events participation, Artisan cocktails

    Room amenities could be greatly improved!!! It felt more like a dated boarding house than a luxury stay, and noise from lively patrons lingered well into the night!!!

    immaculate room
    excellent breakfast

    great walks to landmarks and parks nearby

    I enjoyed my stay, as the room was immaculate and the breakfast menu was excellent, with a good Full English that really set me up for a day of strolling the beautiful village and nearby attractions. I was also thrilled to discover that the Sherborne Steam and Waterwheel Centre is less than 7 km away and perfect for a lovely afternoon walk to see the historical workings of steam power.
