My boyfriend and I ended up choosing this guest house becasue it had such positive reviews. All the positive comments were spot on. I am a bit fussy when it comes to guest houses, some would say a bit OCD! This guest house was spotless! So clean! The lovely couple who run it are calm, kind lovely people who do... More

Julienne & Peter Grove offer a warm and friendly welcome from the moment you cross the threshold of this superb Victorian Guest House.Ideally situated for a short down hill stroll into the town,the nearby wine bars and restaurants make the return journey a pleasant incline.We stayed in a Superior room that was bright and cheerful and enjoyed the early morning...

This place sets the standards that all others should follow. Our room was very fresh clean and tidy with a small flat screen tv and... More

We booked one of the superior rooms for a 4 day stay and can honestly say that it was the nicest room we've ever stayed in. The chill cabinet in the room and all the other little touches made it a very comfortable and pleasurable stay. There was a flat screen TV and DVD player with a little DVD library... More

I stayed here with my boyfriend in July 2011. The room was spotless and tastefully decorated with a great en-suite. Breakfast was better than at a few hotels I've stayed in and the owners were welcoming and friendly. Can't fault it, will definately be back :) More

Stayed for three nights and had an awesome time. The couple running the Bed & Breakfast were so friendly and welcoming we felt like we were at home! Great breakfast in the morning, from locally sourced produce. Really enjoyed the area with some fantastic places to eat within the vicinity of the B&B. Can't recommend somewhere more! Jack. More

Just returned from a 3 night stay in the Dorchester Guest House. Could not fault it. Room clean and well stocked with little extras you don't expect from a B&B. Breakfast was as good as the other comments and nothing was too much trouble. Would definately recommend this Guest House. Would like to think there were more like this one. More

After a week of rain and an increasingly leaky tent, we needed to find a dog friendly B&B and we couldn't have been happier. We were very warmly welcomed, and although the sign said "Pets by arrangement", the owner was more than happy to accommodate an unexpected four-legged visitor. The room itself was small, although the bathroom was very spacious,... More
