Holbrook B&B

Very accommodating - we were only down for the night to attend a wedding. Allowed us to check in early and use the room to get ready before being picked up to attend.Great breakfast the following morning and had a lovely chat which came with recommendations of local things to see and do before we headed home. Also allowed us to leave our car there whilst we explored the area for a bit before we left.

Great hosts who create a homely atmosphere Room was immaculately cleanBreakfast was top notch

Excellent breakfast and service but the room was a bit noisy overlooking a busy main road. The position of the property suited our needs.

The hosts were super friendly and nothing was too much trouble very enjoyable

Charming hosts and a lovely room. Great breakfast. We would definitely come again.

The hosts were personable and helpful.It is one of the best B & B’s we have stayed in.The breakfast was exceptionally.

We had a lovely weekend. The breakfast was marvelous and hosts vary hospitable.

I was made to feel very welcome and immediately felt at home.   My hosts were very interactive with all the other guests and created a most congenial atmosphere.The breakfast was excellent and the accommodation very comfortable and clean.

Made to feel very welcome during a two night stay from first crossing the threshold. Thank you.Five stars. Two pretty grey days so didn't really see the outside of the house at the best time, but looked well kept.Easily within walking distance of the town centre - just travelled by public transport - and the location suited well.

Excellent place to stay lovely breakfast could do enough to help you Definitely come again

Spot on

This is  bit of an odd one as after our stay when my wife and I had left the guest house heading back to London and discussing our stay  it was only when we drove passed Stonehenge we both suddenly realised what we had liked and why we  had such a good time,

 its like being at say University and you have gone home for the weekend, your back in your own bedroom with all the comforts that you have missed and then in the morning the home made cooked breakfast and the comfort you have felt and missed that's the best way to explain the stay, the hosts are brilliant and nothing is to much trouble for them, the breakfast is certainly something special and kippers and poached eggs something I haven't had for years was very enjoyable, and brought back fond memories of my grandmother. My wife had porridge and a full English which she thoroughly enjoyed and again nothing was a problem.

The morning banter with the hosts and another guest during breakfast again made breakfast even more enjoyable as it created the atmosphere of being at a family breakfast and you were at home

and thank you we had a great stay and in the words of Arnie "We will be back" and Wifi good fast connection

Look forward to seeing you both soon

Home from Home

I stayed one night at Holbrook B&B and had a wonderful stay.
The room while small was extremely comfortable and the bed was the best I had in time in the UK. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, but not intrusive. Breakfast was delicious and communal breakfast room made for good company and conversation. The host were also very helpful regarding places to visit and eat in town. Would stay again! 

Beautiful country accomodation

Booked into here for four nights as we are looking to move to the area. Can’t give high enough praise. Our room was clean, warm & comfortable. The bathroom was stocked with all the toiletries we needed. The tea tray had everything we needed. 

The hotel is situated on a busy road so our hosts had thoughtfully provided earplugs. These weren’t needed as the double glazing kept the noise out.

Breakfast was delicious and plentiful. We could help ourself to fresh fruit, yoghurt, cereal and juice. Full English breakfast was cooked to order and nothing was too much trouble. Nice to see porridge & kippers on the menu too. 

All in all a very enjoyable stay. Our hosts were welcoming and friendly. They were interest in why we were in Shaftesbury and we welcomed all their knowledge and information of the area.

We’d love to stay with them again and probably will when we return to the area.

Fantastic B & B

Booked very last minute and was lucky to get a room as it was a cancellation,  so meant to be!

Very easy to find and conveniently located, short walk into Shaftsbury which is an beautiful old town and well worth a trip into to walk around the old streets.

I stayed for the Great Dorst Steam Fair and it is perfectly situated for the very short commute.

Greeting was warm and friendly from the host. Room was lovely and clean with a good size bathroom and lovely big shower. Complimentary Wi-Fi and tea, coffee and biscuits provided in the room. Little TV to keep you occupied. 

Breakfast was delicious and cooked fresh to order. Fresh pot of coffee per person, fresh orange juice. Lovely choice of fresh fruit and yogurt. I went for the full English, which had a good choice of how I wanted my eggs which I like. It was all perfect.

I highly recommend Holbrook Bed and Breakfast,  it's a warm and friendly place well worth the stay.

Superb B&B with lovely hosts

Stayed just one night, apart from the pillows, but I think that could be a personal thing, it  was a lovely stay. I only stayed 1 night but Ian and his wife made every effort to accommodate, so chatty and friendly, even managed to get the whole breakfast tables into a group conversation. Breakfast was great, enough to last the day. 
The room was big, bright and airy…..good for the heatwave we are having. Shower was great.defo recommended it. I had a triple room for myself, and they pushed 2 singles together to give me a huge bed to sleep on.

Lovely owners

I was not planning on staying in Shaftesbury but due to some car trouble I was forced to.  With all the the hotels booked I stayed at Holbrook B&B.  I am glad I did.  First, the owners were so accommodating and helpful.  They noticed I was a little upset due to my car trouble and gave me great recommendations for a place to eat and have a beer to help calm me down a bit.  When I got back they had my room ready.  It was very clean, had its own bathroom and all I needed to have a restful night.  When I got up and went down stairs for breakfast I was blown away at the English breakfast they served.  Eggs, sausage, bacon, beans, hashbrown, juice, cofee/tea.  The owners came in and we had a great conversation about where I was from and family.  I really appreciated them making me feel so welcome! 

Car trouble in Shaftesbury.....no problem!

We arrived at lunchtime several hours prior to check in, and Ian not only kindly let us park our car he told us our room was ready so we could drop our bags and have a cup of tea after our drive. The room was lovely , airy and spacious with a well stocked tea tray. Ian was very friendly and welcoming,  and gave us lots of information on the area. 
The bathroom was cosy and modern , with a great shower   and toiletries provided.  The bed was big   and very comfy. The only potential downside could have been fron being next to a busy road , which was noisy , but the double glazing was so good   we slept like logs.

 Breakfast was excellent,  lots of choices of fruit  yogurt etc , and a delicious full English,  served byDiane , who was efficient and friendly with all the guests. 

Shaftesbury itself is lovely , we had great walks , and superb food.
All in all a great place to stay , and we would thoroughly recommend Holbrook to anyone. 
Thanks Ian and Diane, we'll be back.

Fantastic stay.

What a lovely little place! Stayed here for two nights as attending a wedding locally. Greeted with a warm welcome from Diane as soon as we arrived. Comfy beds, nice hot shower, tea and coffee in the room, what more could you want!? And breakfast was delicious, lovely to choose what you’d like and how it’s cooked. Would 100% recommend and would definitely come back again if I’m in the area!
