    Charming Sherborne get-away 🌸

    The garden room was so lekker, bright and airy with a lovely door to chill outside. The brekkie was absolute fire, fresh and varied! Susie was a proper chommie, super warm and helpful, made us feel right at home.

    Just a bit tricky to find the place at first, but once you get in, it’s a real gem!

    delicious breakfast
    family-friendly activities

    Staying at this lovely spot with my family was memorable! The kids loved cycling around the beautiful area, and our room was a great fit for everyone. Plus, breakfast was delicious and really set us up for the day.

    My kids wished for more family-friendly activities on-site.

    delicious breakfast
    spacious room
    serene garden view

    great stay with minor hiccups

    The breakfast exceeded my expectations, with a delightful array of local jams that enhanced each meal. The Superior King Room was exceptionally spacious and maintained to a high standard, providing a comfortable retreat after long days. I appreciated the lush garden view from my room, which added a serene touch to my stay. The dining experience was genuinely memorable. I found the Wi-Fi speed lacking, making it challenging to stay connected during my visit.

    cozy room
    delicious breakfast
    peaceful outdoor seating
    slow wi-fi

    The garden room was super cozy with a lovely private patio to relax on. Breakfast was deliciously prepared with local ingredients every morning! I enjoyed some downtime in the peaceful outdoor seating area and the charming lounge. One thing to note is that the Wi-Fi could be a bit hit or miss, but it didn't really dampen my stay. 😊

    The breakfasts were outstanding, featuring a variety of delicious jams that really enhanced the experience. the superior king room was exceptionally clean, spacious, and well-equipped, providing a comfortable retreat after a day of exploring. the phone number listed online caused some confusion when reaching out before arrival, and the Wi-Fi speed was slower than expected, which made it challenging to stay connected.
