We enjoyed our one-night stay at Barrows House, finding the bed in our King Room super comfortable and the staff incredibly kind and attentive. They even provided backup linens and pillows due to my allergy, which felt very thoughtful. The grounds were gorgeous, and the breakfast served was delicious. We didn't get to dine at the on-site restaurant, but we heard great things from locals. On the downside, the entryway had a smoky smell, likely from the fireplace. It would have been nice if that had been addressed. Overall, this place has a lot of charm, but a fresher smell upon entry would enhance the experience.

Just a fine choice for a brief weekend stay in Dorset with good value for money. Amy at the front desk made us feel really welcome and gave us great local tips. Check out the fireplace area for a cozy hangout on cold nights.

Perfect for family gatherings
The dinner we had was astonishing, they served this unbelievable rib eye that melted in your mouth, and I can’t forget the fresh local greens! And let me tell you, the staff? They treated us like we mattered, always asking if we needed anything and genuinely helping out.
It wasn't cheap, but you get what you pay for.

We had such a blast at this charming inn with friends! The outdoor swimming pool and beautiful gardens made our stay relaxing and fun. We loved dinner at the inn and enjoyed breakfast at the nearby spot included in our rate. Definitely a place I’d recommend for a fun getaway.
Our only issue was that the room was a bit smaller than expected, but it was still clean and comfy.

The Queen Room features a cozy fireplace, enhancing the atmosphere, especially on colder evenings. The hotel offers immediate access to scenic grounds that include a pool and a gazebo, perfect for leisurely strolls.
The entryway had a noticeable smoky odor, likely from the fireplace, which could put a damper on the first impression. During my two-night stay, I noticed some aging in facilities, calling for updates and maintenance in spots that appeared worn. There seemed to be occasional noise disturbances, particularly from nearby wedding celebrations, potentially impacting relaxation.
