Treat yourself to a short break in the beautiful, historic and quintessentially English town of Sherborne, Dorset. Sherborne is known for its beautiful Abbey, exclusive schools and its two Castles, the more recent one built by Sir Walter Raleigh in 1594. The Eastbury Hotel is an “award winning” luxury hotel in the centre of town, within walking distance of the Abbey and main shopping street. Experience the ambience of our peaceful one acre walled garden and perhaps indulge a game of croquet, table tennis or garden chess. Perhaps book a stay in our brand new "Victorian Garden Potting Shed Suites" located in our walled garden or make use of our new spa facilities including relaxing spa treatments using the exclusive GAIA product range. Make sure you find time to take a visit the picturesque local Dorset Countryside & nearby Jurassic Coastline. We promise you won’t be disappointed.

Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This is an exceptional & elegant traditional hotel. From the time I made my reservation to checking out the customer service was top rate. I was attending a family funeral in Yeovil. The family residence is located in Sherborne & they recommended I stayed here. The room, Kingscup, was warm, clean & luxurious. The bed was so comfortable with loads of pillows! I must mention, Gemma, the Manager, who went beyond the call of duty, when i had a medical issue & needed A&E! Together with Lydia & Amaldene, who were all receptive to personal needs & very friendly. The hotel is in the process of changing to new management in December. The breakfasts were delicious & beautifully catered, however, in the evening it was necessary to select & eat at local restaurants. I would recommend the ‘Plume of Feathers’ opposite the Cathedral. ‘Tambolinos’ is also another good Italian eating house. All together the staff are very kind & welcoming & the accommodation & location is perfect for getting into Sherborne. Without hesitation I highly recommend the Eastbury Hotel.

Hotel's Favourite
We booked a one night stay for a bit of a getaway at the start of the bank holiday, and first came across The Eastbury as we were looking for a dog friendly hotel and facilities. That said, even if we didn’t have a dog we would have wanted to come and stay, and the reality of staying here was just as we hoped. Stunning surroundings, really lovely professional and friendly staff, and a beautiful room - we stayed in one of the potting sheds and what a treat that was! All in all we felt very looked after and can’t wait to return. Oh, and I can’t leave my review without mentioning the spa, tucked away and offering a calming, quiet experience away from the usual hustle and bustle of spas nowadays. I had a manicure appointment with Molly, and had a really good experience! She went above and beyond, and we had a great laugh and lots of great conversation along the way - I only wish I could have visited the spa for another appointment but sadly we only had the one night stay! Thanks everyone at The Eastbury, we had the best time!

This is definitely not a five star hotel. The room was in need of major refurbishment and lacked basic services such as a room safe and hand soap in the bathroom. You are told to use the in room Alexa to call reception, when I tried to do this it told me they were offline so I had to use my mobile phone to call reception. The restaurant is closed and staff leave the premises at 9pm telling you to use an emergency telephone number should you need to. Overall very disappointing for the price. It’s an overpriced B&B.

We had the best stay at The Eastbury Hotel. It truly was a joy from start to finish. The staff were very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. On arrival we noticed some lovely touches to the room such as the walking guide. We decided to follow one route around the castle and were so glad we did. We would highly recommend. Everything about our stay was perfect. The food, staff and facilities. We thoroughly enjoyed the spa. Our potting shed was so cosy - you almost didn’t want to leave! We didn’t need it during our stay but it also had under floor heating. The grounds were kept beautifully and it was lovely just relaxing around the hotel. It was so peaceful. Be sure to book an afternoon tea. It was delicious. A very special place that we will look forward to visiting again.

The spa massage by Becks was the best I’ve had - we felt really relaxed & invigorated after our spa session - lovely tranquil setting / divine products - hot tub under the trees & chilled Prosecco what’s not to love.

Had an absolutely wonderful stay at this hotel with use of the spa. Staff were all extremely helpful and friendly. We arrived early, but our room was ready so they let us check in and showed us to our room, which was in the pretty grounds by the gardens and near to the spa. Room is beautiful with high quality furniture and accessories and every little detail has been thought of, complimentary umbrellas (which turned out to be very useful!!), complimentary slow gin and bottle of wine. There was a lovely little terrace with bi-fold doors opening to it, unfortunately the rain didn’t allow us to sit out. It was a shame the restaurant was not open, but it’s only a short walk into Sherborne, with plenty of restaurants and pubs to eat at. Breakfast in the morning was good quality, a little bit of a wait, but the service was friendly. We had booked a room with use of the spa and it was lovely to have the spa all to ourselves and enjoy the facilities, we were well looked after and still used a hot tub in the rain Overall I would highly recommend a stay at this very elegant and beautiful hotel a perfect base to explore Sherborne and the surrounding area.

We stayed for a weekend getaway and absolutely loved it. All staff were warm, friendly and nothing was every too much trouble, especially Chris and Ellie on reception, they were so helpful and accommodating. Breakfast was delicious and good quality, Olivia was brilliant. A short walk into town where there are stunning bespoke shops to browse. We will definitely will be returning soon.

What a beautiful place, such a nicely curated hotel. Brought here by friends to sit in the funky bar and was served by the fantastic Olivia. I hear the hotel was full but will definitely come back. Thank you Olivia!!
