The Frampton Arms

Fantastic location and very clean. The staff were very welcoming, efficient and helpful. The location is brilliant. Very easy to explore the whole of Dorset and opposite a train station, (Moreton) if you want to use the train. There’s also a bus stop opposite. We were close to the Tank Museum, Clouds Hill and the village of Moreton has a beautiful church with stunning windows, and it’s where TE Lawrence had his funeral and he is buried close by- you can visit his grave. Excellent location for exploring. The food was good and reasonably priced- we ate there on the first evening. The only drawback was the road noise sometimes during rush hour, but this is not the fault of the owners! A lovely stay and very reasonable. We were here during a heatwave, so the aircon in the room was appreciated. There is also a co-op close by for convenience too. The breakfast was generous and included too. Staff very friendly and welcoming. The Frampton family are also historically connected to the Tolpuddle Martyrs (the family were on the wrong side of history, so this was a fun connection when we visited that area too! ) Lots to see and do and near Chesil Beach, all the Hardy bits and pieces, Cerne Abbas Giant, Dorchester, Blandford Forum, Poundbury, etc. -all easily reached by car.

Prompt easy checkin. Very clean and comfortable room. Staff very welcoming. Food choice varied and of high quality. All in all a great place to stay - just wish for me it had been longer!

Very friendly and helpful staff. Check in quick, given all the info we needed. Classic Double room was larger than expected. Well stocked tea and coffee and biscuits. Lovely clean bathroom,good shower, plenty of hot water. Continental breakfast was fine and catered for gluten free. We ate in the restaurant for dinner. A good selection of dishes at reasonable prices. The majority were gluten free. The food was excellent. The pub is next to the railway crossing and station, but no noise overnight. Would definitely recommend.
