Good central location with plenty of space in the room and excellent parking. Lightening was insufficient since bedside lights broken or no bulb. Upgrade of interior (one of the 2 rooms) would benefit the property especially for the cost charged.
Great venue in historic Sherborne. Comfortable rooms and free parking. Food & drink available in a central location. Competitively priced and friendly staff. Will definitely use again ❤️
Fantastic location right in the centre of the historic town of Sherborne. Easy reach to everywhere, including the Abbey and all the pubs and school facilities.
Great location opposite sherborne Abbey & walking distance to shops& castle easy parking onsite good breakfast & friendly staff

Well located with free parking so didn't need to use the car at all during our stay.
Everything we wanted to do and see was within walking distance.
The place needs refurbishment throughout the stairways and in particular, the bathroom of room 10

We loved this property and area as a whole and to be in Sherborne was fantastic anyway, and so close to the Abbey was beautiful in itself. The in-house staff were brilliant and very helpful too with anything we needed, but I’m afraid the general up keep of the building and facilities in Room 1 (family size) were poor in places like broken fixtures and fittings etc, like the cracked toilet seat lid, the broken (and not working) shaving light and shaver power socket on the mirror in the bathroom which i needed, and the hot tap on the bath which was loose with no coupler attached in behind/underneath which is not great at all really as was nearly turning right round.🚰
