10/10 Excellent
"Lovely Georgian house in Dorchester High Street. Parking available nearby. Nicely decorated and spotlessly clean room, Residents lounge if you want somewhere quiet to read. Good breakfast. Host very friendly and provides good information on things to do in the area and recommendations for places to eat nearby. We stayed four nights and thoroughly enjoyed our visit."
