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

Neil and Rosemarie were excellent, very friendly but professional and nothing was too much. Facilities excellent, rooms excellent. Parking excellent. Looking forward to our next visit. Hotel is so convenient for River Cottage and the lovely Lyme Regis.
