I liked everything about this hotel. The room was spacious and as well as having loads of cupboard and drawer space it had two armchairs (a rarity these days, in my experience), hair dryer, ironing board and iron. The bed was comfortable. The bathroom was also a good size with plenty of shelf space for spreading out toiletries, good lighting for shaving, and (also a rarity) simple basin taps that did not require lengthy experimentation to work out how to get hot water. The shower was also very satisfactory. I liked the fact that the room was thoroughly serviced during the day including replenishing the biscuits :)
On my first morning I had the continental breakfast including croissants that were most acceptable, and I appreciated the fact that the cold cabinet offered various non-dairy milk options. On the second morning I tried the cooked breakfast and found that excellent.
The swimming pool is a reasonable size, perfectly good for putting in a few lengths for exercise.
The hotel's decor might be too plain for some people's taste but the establishment is well-maintained and managed, and all the staff are friendly and helpful. There was plenty of parking, much of it under shade trees (thankfully, because the weather was sunny and hot). I was attending the fringe festival in the town and delighted to find that the walk into the centre was only 15 minutes on a quiet road so I was spared the hassle of finding parking.
All in all a great experience. I'll be back.

We were very happy with our stay, chose this hotel because of it's location, easy walk into Shaftesbury and gold hill, and next day to stourhead national trust. The room was very clean and everything worked ok but the room decor reflected the 3 star rating, but the bar and dinning areas were more like 4/5 star and also the food and service one of the best Sunday carveries ever, would return just for that, and then to top that the full English breakfast wow, that was definitely 5 star, the staff were very friendly and helpful, the hotel has a large car park area which is shared by day visitors for restaurant and swimming pool which is free to guests, although the building looks a little tired we would use again because of the price, The only suggestion I would make is to separate the guests parking area from visitors .
