The staff were brilliant. I stay in hotels every week for work and the young girls here are so obliging and accommodating and nothing was a problem. I have not had service like this since pre covid! Well done you were amazing. Thank you. The hotel was really lovely and the room very clean and comfortable and the ambience was lovely.

Shaftesbury is an attractive, small town perched on top of a hill. It has beautiful views and there are a number of independent shops and cafes.Walking around the town, and into the countryside is very pleasant.

A lovely village with some interesting history.

A lovely village with some interesting history. The museum was good with helpful staff. We visited the infamous Gold Hill, where the 1973 Hovis advert was filmed. Found a great little coffee shop opposite the town hall.

Lovely town to explore.

Lovely town to explore. Gold Hill the main attraction but the streets at the bottom of the hill have lots of character and some thatched properties..We found a lovely millennium garden and a some interesting shops. Not so much to do on a rainy day around the area this time of year as the NT properties are not open yet so suggest visiting March onwards.

Beautiful old town, cobbled streets, amazing views.

Beautiful old town, cobbled streets, amazing views. Gold Hill has to be seen (google Hovis advert) even my 20 year old was impressed. We had a wonderful breakfast at King Alfred’s Kitchen instead of eating at our hotel. We stayed at Grosvenor Arms Hotel, very central, no parking if you at staying but car parks are available. I live close to Arundel in West Sussex and it reminded me of the medieval history. Nice people, nice views, beautiful place to have a weekend away.

It is hard to give a review of Shaftesbury, having spent just an overnight in the town. From first appearances, though, this town and environs is well worth a longer stay to explore. The Restaurant, San Tonino, is well worth a visit.

The room was clean and tidy and quite big enough. The bed was comfortable, and we both slept very well. The gardens around the hotel were nice. The bathroom was small but adequate. The swimming pool was good, with a sauna too. The sauna was small but adequate and hot enough! The were plenty of parking spaces around the hotel. The breakfast was fine and just enough of each item, except mushrooms, but then we love lots of mushrooms!

This is a beautiful example of how a property should be after working for weeks in the area in accommodation that doesn’t really meet ideal expectations this property was absolutely spot on! Beautiful barn conversion just a short drive out of Shaftesbury, absolutely spot on with comfortable bed and decent shower.
