"The Old Ship Inn is the perfect place to stay during our trip to Dorchester and surrounding area. It’s a gorgeous Inn tucked into a very special old pub. Our room was very clean, and the beds were super comfortable. We will be coming back here for sure. "
"Nice and clean - a good stay. The hosts were really great when I arrived quite late at night due to a missed train, and were really helpful in making sure I could get right into my room easily. I really appreciated their helpfulness and easy communication.
There are a number of pets about the house including dogs, who make a bit of noise in the evening and early morning, but not too bad.
I would be quite happy to stay here again."
"Good location 10 minutes walk to bay/marina. Bus stop 5 min away to get to Portland. Continental breakfast with good selection of fruits. Friendly hosts. "
"If you fancy a comfortable, clean and friendly Dorset inn with the best of breakfasts and delicious high quality meals, book in at The Marquis of Lorne. Surrounded by wonderful views, walking paths and close to the sea. Great for relaxing without children, also great for young families - an excellent garden play area."

"The Sleeping Bear was an extremely comfortable place to stay. It had recently been decorated to a high standard and everything was well cared for. The staff could not have been friendlier or more helpful."
"Fantastic stay lovely hostess really went the extra mile to make our short break very special.
Excellent breakfast and the surrondings were all in keeping.
The room was very comfortable and quiet.
Central location in Dorchester with all its history & museums and some really nice restaurants in easy walking distance
Also a good base if you're exploring the surrounding area. You have Corfe Castle & Swanage within an hours drive."
"A lovely one night stay. The pub is in a quiet village location, close to lots of interesting places in beautiful Dorset countryside. Our room was large, with an equally large bathroom. We ate in the pub in the evening. The menu choice was good, prices reasonable and the food was excellent. We had our breakfast served outside in the garden and, again, this was tasty, hot and really enjoyable. Thoroughly recommended."
"Good sized en suite room in private flat. Powerful shower, good wifi. Convenient for Dorchester centre, no parking but public (paid) car park just across the road. There is a cat. Comfortable bed and very quiet location even though close to centre"
"The Old Chapel is a thoughtfully and attractive converted building. It is well equipped, and we enjoyed the social space in the kitchen/diner. The road in front of the downstairs bedrooms was busier than expected during rush hours, and the village amenities were more spread out than we anticipated. We enjoyed the Island Garden Center and coffee shop across the road for a breakfast and lunch. The off-street parking was awkward for an SUV type vehicle but would be alright for a smaller car. It is well situated to visit many interesting locations around south Dorset. "
"Very clean, excellent area, great hosts, lovely little hamper of welcome goodies. All facilities you would need for a short break. Only thing lacking was outdoor space but we were made aware of this and as it was a short break not a problem. Would definitely stay there again."
