The hotel has everything you could want, from a comfy chair in front of the fire to fine dining. Richard and his staff are a marvellous team and will make your visit memorable I am very much looking forward to my next visit. .

What a wonderful three days at Plumber Manor; my wife and I were celebrating a special birthday, on a dinner, bed and breakfast package. It was a gloomy November weekend, with the trees shedding their leaves outside, but a really warm welcome from the friendly and excellent staff inside, not to mention the huge log fire in the bar, contributing to the warm atmosphere. Richard is a wonderful host, welcoming guests into his family home, which, quite remarkably he has been doing for 50 years. The staff, who all appear to be locals, seemed to love working there, and the whole operation runs like clockwork under Richard's guidance. Food and wine is a highlight, with the generous cooking quite traditional in style, and an excellent wine list, from which we chose a red Rhone, white Burgundy and red Burgundy, all drinking very well, and realistically priced. Our bedroom, in the main house was very spacious, with an excellent bathroom; we enjoyed all the family portraits as we went up and down the stairs. We are about to move to the area, so may not stay again, but are already planning to return, with friends, for a Sunday lunch.…

Lovely location away from the madding crowds, but so near to many attractions and beautiful areas of Dorset, Somerset and Wiltshire. Warm, friendly and of good standards as well as being totally unpretentious. Having now known Plumber Manor for many years I continue to enjoy it's comforts and their faultless and consistent high standards of food.

I have not written a review in quite some time, but felt that this hidden gem needed and deserves a glowing review. What a lovely property, and fabulous staff, food and accommodations! This delightful inn will give you the feeling you are “to the manor born”; a real Lord or Lady of the Manor. Beautifully decorated rooms, well maintained and picturesque grounds, welcoming staff, and top-notch cuisine. First evening we arrived, we were welcomed into the lounge/bar area, with fireplace warming our arrival in addition to any type of cocktail you would request they prepare. They bring the menu for the evening to you in the lounge, where you can order as you imbibe, and afterwards are welcomed into the dining room when your table and starters are ready. The ultra clean room was very comfortable, and well maintained. It is very “old school” decor, but my husband and I found it quite lovely. Breakfast is very hardy and delicious, and they always inquired about our travels for the day, and welcomed us back enthusiastically in the evening. We highly recommend this property!…

Plumber Manor is a delightfully comfortable country house hotel set in attractive grounds. The restaurant has an interesting menu with well prepared dishes of good quality. It is a pleasure to eat breakfast and dinner there. The varied wine list complements the food at an undemanding price. In all ways it is a generous hotel.

Plumber Manor was a beautiful country house hotel. The grounds were lovely to walk round and my husband even saw an otter in the stream that runs along the edge. Our room was in the courtyard and it was perfect for us. We had a very large bedroom and plenty of room in the bathroom with a walk in shower and parking nearby. We were with a family group of seven and they were all extremely happy with their stay. It was a birthday celebration and we were delighted to be served dinner in a room separate from the main dining room. The staff were so accommodating, efficient and friendly and made the stay perfect. We were thinking of going out for dinner the second night, but enjoyed the meal so much the first night we opted to eat again at Plumber Manor.

A slight hiccup at the beginning over rooms was dealt with with humour and graciousness and we were given coffee while we waited. All the staff were friendly and went out of their way to help. Lovely food - definitely ate too much! Pretty room with good size bathroom. very quiet at night. Excellent breakfast.

The house and setting were beautiful! The family and their staff were so welcoming. The bedroom was very comfortable and the bathroom had plenty of white fluffy towels and Molton Brown toiletries. The dining room had a wonderful atmosphere and the menu was extensive making it easy to choose something delicious.
