It was okay, just a little on the dated side. Ideal location walkable to Shaftesbury town centre.
It was a warm night, the room was so hot.

The hotel is very quiet and I have stayed there many times. Every service staff is very nice and enthusiastic. There are many choices for breakfast, all of which are delicious and there is nothing disappointing. Breakfast is free for children under 12 years old. The hotel has a swimming pool and a small sauna. The swimming pool is very popular. Every time I pass by, there are people swimming. There is a Tesco supermarket next to it, which is a ten-minute walk away. It is very convenient to walk there every day to replenish supplies.

This is a nice hotel located close to the centre of Shaftesbury and easy access from the main road. Even though we booked a room with multiple beds (we assumed this was a twin room); it turned out to be a room with a double bed and a cot (I guess 2 beds) but not ideal when sharing with your mother! The room was very hot as well as we could turn off the radiator in the bathroom. Nice breakfast and pool though.

Relaxing stay
Comfortable stay, lovely area rooms are a bit dated could do with a freshen up! Very clean hotel and lovely staff, especially the ladies who serve breakfast in the morning always smiling and happy to help.

It's a good stay for the price with access to swimming pool and proximity to Shaftesbury High street. Rooms are spacious and comfortable.

The bar and restaurant let this place down. The bar is spartan, like a school 1950s canteen, and had a filthy main glass table with ripped 2 year old "Good housekeeping" magazines laying on top....there's a misnomer.
My room was spotlessly clean and bed very comfortable.
Ate in the restaurant on my first night as it was bitterly cold and freezing outside, so didn't fancy going out. There was no heating on in the restaurant, when i asked why I was told it was on a timer. Ridiculous!
