Lovely place to stay with an excellent host. Very quiet and comfortable in the countryside just outside Sturminster Newton. Easy for Shaftesbury and all the surrounding locations of interest.
The guest house is in a lovely location, quite rural, but with a good size town within 10min drive. The property is clean and welcoming. The host is easy to deal with and very helpful. The double room was bright ans spacious. The ensuite had a powerful shower.
Hidden away only a couple of miles from the lovely market town of Sturminster Newton, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Justin is a lovely host and we were incredibly well looked after. Super full English breakfast and Good amenities in the room. Highly recommended.
We were going to the Sturminster Cheese festival and decided to stay the night and found this lovely B&B on hotels.com
Lovely place, quiet and out in the countryside.
Justin was a nice, friendly host and cooked a lovely breakfast.
Would highly recommend
Lovely place to stay. Great parking. Great breakfast - should ask what we wanted/preferred though to avoid waste. Calm and quiet and a ten min walk to a local pub with decent food. Lovely stay.

Friendly stay
We were attending a wedding for the weekend. The owner was away but his stand in Nick went out of his way to make us feel welcome and was very friendly. Breakfast was epic and we could decide on the time. A very cosy and comfortable bed, very quiet road even with a front facing room.
It suited our needs very well
We had a lovely weekend. Justin was a great host. Breakfast was brilliant.
Plenty of walks and bike riding around.
We had a lovely ride on North Dorset Trail.
We definitely come back again.
It was extremely clean, well appointed with small details e.g torch, hair dryer, iron. Very attentive host who ensured we were comfortable. Delightful spot in the country.
Friendly, welcoming, high quality Guest House that would put many hotels to shame. Comfortable, room with quality furnishings and useful facilities. Excellent Breakfast.
Good size, comfortable room with lovely ensuite. Very friendly and welcoming host Justin. Plenty of parking. Thoughtful communal area with games and local information. Beautiful location. Very nice breakfast with plenty of choice and good quality.
Would definitely return.
Really good stay here as we travelled to Dorset for a wedding. Host was happy to let us in early to get changed and was very attentive. Breakfast in the morning was super and once again our host could not do enough to make sure we were happy. We would recommend very strongly

Property was ideal for our visit to Shaftesbury. Breakfast was very good.
Bit busy on the road outside. Photo online a bit misleading
Lovely clean room with everything we needed. So good to have nice English Breakfast tea and Nescafe Gold coffee in the room. Fresh milk kept in a small fridge was a real bonus. Thank you.
What a great find. Justin is just the perfect host. Couldn’t find a thing wrong with it. Next time we’re in the area won’t hesitate to stay there again
We loved are short stay. Was really lovely setting in the country side. The owner was very friendly and the free breakfast was a lovely finishing touch to are stay. We will definitely be coming to stay again
