10/10 Exceptional

Absolutely loved our weekend at the Dower House! Amazing location surrounded by nature, the building is so beautiful and our room was huge and had every comfort. All the things you don't find in chain hotels are here - four poster bed, comfy sofa, coffee table and chairs sat amongst a wonderful backdrop, dark and quiet at night for a great sleep. And not to forget the amazing and genuine owners, Tim and Rosemarie, and Teresa who served a great breakfast

Amazing hotel, staff and location

Neil & Rosemary were very friendly and lovely when we arrived and during our stay. Our room was as excellent with a large bed, bath in the room and TV, etc. The lounge where the bar is was lovely and breakfast was all local. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again

Perfection

By far the best hotel on a week long tour of Hampshire/Dorset/Devon. We stayed in a variety of places (including a huge and quite fabulous High-Victorian mansion in the New Forest) but The Dower House was far and away the nicest hotel in every way. Spotlessly clean, beautiful rooms, everything immaculate, wonderfully helpful, friendly hosts. Can't recommend this place highly enough.

Staff are very friendly and accommodating. The room is spacious, clean with tasteful decorations. My son especially loves the heated swimming pool. Staff are very helpful and offered to open the pool earlier and offered to late check out so that he can have a swim before we left.

Lovely stay. Some rogue decor, but overall nice hotel and stay. Nice host. You need a car if you’re going to stay here because there’s nothing around.
Christina, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A very nice small hotel full of character and in a beautiful setting and convenient to lyme regis. See and countryside views from the room. Lovely gardens. Friendly owners and staff went out of their way to make sure we had eventing we needed... the owners checked in with us at breakfast each morning. The 3 course table service breakfast was selectable from a menu. Classy but not pretentious.

8/10 Very good

Lovely hotel and the owners were really friendly and always happy to help. Just a little niggle about the price as we had to pay extra on top for the kids (so price was as good as we thought). Other that that it is a super place and beautiful surroundings.
