Top The Art Stable Hotel Reviews

Manston Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"I found Justin to be a welcoming and helpful host. The bedroom was comfortable, and breakfast was excellent. I would recommend Manston Guest House as a good place to stay, in a quiet area close to Sturminster Newton."

The Anvil Inn

8/10 Good

"We enjoyed our two night stay in this delightful, characterful inn. Our room was very clean and the bed most comfortable. Staff were charming and helpful. Breakfast choices were excellent and well prepared. Our evening meal was OK: we were disappointed with the duck bao bun starter- too little filling, and could have done with a dipping sauce. However my husband’s chicken and ham pie was very tasty and the chilli chicken curry was very pleasant. All in all good value and recommended for a few nights stay. We would go again."

Best Western Shaftesbury The Royal Chase Hotel

8/10 Good

"Breakfast very good"

Plumber Manor

10/10 Excellent

"Plumber Manor is a perfect place to stay if you want a peaceful retreat in beautiful gardens , a comfortable bed and delicious food. It has a well stocked bar and the wine prices are reasonable. The only negative was the wifi was weak in the courtyard room we stayed in which caused ‘buffering’ when watching a film. We mentioned it to staff and it will be rectified. It is a family owned hotel so the service feels personal. Somewhere we would definitely like to return to. There are many interesting places to visit nearby, including the Jurassic coast and National Trust properties. The hotel staff will help to plan your day."

Crown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely old hotel and our indulgence plus room was beautiful and elegant we loved the deep copper bath where we indulged in a luxurious soak on the night of our stray together with the hot powerful shower the next morning"

The Crown at Marnhull

10/10 Excellent
