The Countryman Inn

Great stay. Friendly staff, good food and very convenient.

A lovely old inn, upgraded and updated to offer all of the contemporary comforts one might want, including free WiFi /Internet. The room was medium size, with a queen /double bed and wonderfully illuminated bb its skylight. The bed and bed linens were outstanding; couldn’t be better. The pub & restaurant were as charmingly English as a Yank could want and the food was very good. I would return in a heartbeat, given the opportunity, and recommend it to any single or couple. It might be great for larger families, too; I simply don ’t know.

This was our second visit (one year later). The friendliness of the staff is still good but the food quality and service has deteriorated. Quite a long wait for food. Understandable as they were busy and happy to wait for freshly cooked food. However all three different main courses were dry and overcooked. The pasta with the salmon was just a few rings which hadn't been mixed properly with the sauce. At breakfast (which was not busy) there was very little fruit juice in the containers. The milk dispenser was empty an the coffee jug was not refilled. The few croissants were stale. There were only three other people present at breakfast so they were not overstretched.

We Loved our stay at this wonderful inn....the staff were all super friendly and you could tell they Enjoyed working there...Dogs are welcome and it felt like everyone who entered brought one with them...Food was delicious even to the point that my wife claimed she had the best sweet for desert that she had ever tasted....Would definitely return..

Very large family room with lounge and huge bedroom. Good selection of hot drink options in room

Fantastic stay, good breakfast and dinner. Reduced one star because of the WiFi issues inside the room. Couldn’t work from the room using the hotel WiFi.

It’s rare to visit an establishment where there are so many excellent staff. We visited the Countryman on Boxing Day and booked a Christmas meal and a double room. The food was wonderful, the service was excellent. The room was very comfortable. I cannot praise everyone enough. If you visit Dorchester, this IS the place to stay. Thank you for making our Boxing Day so lovely

The room is on top of a typical countryside pub. Standard pub room condition, definitely not worth a 8.8 rating. The hand wash sink was blocked, shower head was broken, furnitures were old and not so clean. Although service was very friendly and helpful. I would rate it 7 of 10, maybe other rooms are better.

Lovely overnight stay at this delightful Inn. A comfy room. Great food and a very friendly and helpful team of people.

Great people, great dinner, lovely breakfast
