"This was a lovely bolt hole in the country and an ideal location for visiting wonderful local landmarks. The cottage was well equipped and nicely presented with a welcoming box of biscuits on arrival. Very quiet with tranquil views. The owners were over the driveway and extremely friendly. Salisbury, Glastonbury, Sherborne and the like were within easy reach as was Poole on the coast. An ideal spot and perfect for that relaxing getaway."

George Albert Hotel & Spa

George Albert Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Wow!!! Upon arrival our hearts sank. As you look at the building the right side looked dilapidated - curtains across windows at an angle and an air of disrepair. We almost drove back out. However once you enter the double doors it’s like another world. Great reception area, clean and bright with two friendly receptionists ready to book in guests. The rooms were bright and immaculately clean, with air conditioning, table and 2 chairs and a 6’0 bed. The bathroom was large and beautifully designed with lovely complimentary toiletries. The shower was a power shower with no heating issues. Great little drinks tray on the vanity, various teas and coffees and two hot choc sachets as well as two bottles of still water. If I had to be picky I’d say the TV could be bigger and a plug socket by the bed would be great but as a work trip staying one night it wasn’t an issue. Overall ignore the facade and enjoy the hotel on the inside! "
