We had an excellent stay however the room was not as clean as we would expect. The toilet was very stained at the bottom and the furniture had not been cleaned thoroughly. There was lots of dust.

We stayed in room 3 for one night. There are good and bad points. Hence the average score based on the price and expectations. Good - we liked the decor and the quirky touches like the kettle, radio, night lighting, pillow options and air con. The bed was comfortable. Poundbury has nice shops (gallery / garden centre) and cafes nearby including a handy Waitrose. Parking was convenient. Bad - we had to ask twice to be given shower gel. There are no phones in the room which meant going downstairs twice to flag which was annoying after a long drive when we wanted a bath and had already flagged this 3 hours earlier. We expected face cloths in the room and both myself and my husband slipped getting in and out of the bath so think they should have non slip mats. Food wise we were underwhelmed - especially at breakfast. There were no bowls or plates out for fruit and no jams,marmalades, honey etc on the table. All the food felt like it had been thrown in the deep fat fryer and was greasy. For both breakfast & dinner we had to flag staff to serve us. We paid nearly £180 and think we would have got a nicer breakfast and room at a b&b for half the price. Sure the bedroom was nice but the bathroom hadn’t been properly cleaned - there was a huge hair on the tiles, stains on the ceiling, one of the taps was missing the cold button sign. Little things but when you’re paying a luxury price you expect more. In short I wouldn’t stay again as I feel it was over priced.

Exceptionally well looked after by staff members, nothing was too much trouble. Food and service were excellent, well looked after, without being over the top. We were in room number 20, and we had views across the square. The room itself was clean and comfortable and a pleasure to stay in.
