Bay Tree House

Very friendly host who kept me in the loop what was happening- made contact before booking as I was going to be late. Breakfast great choice- pity the weather(snow) played havoc with my plans!!

A very convenient location for Dorchester centre which was a 15 minute walk. The landlord was very friendly and helpful and made my 4 night stay very comfortable. There was a great choice at breakfast where the landlord was able to sort me out with porridge.

Der Wirt war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Unser Doppelzimmer war sehr eng, aber glücklicherweise waren 2 separate Betten, ein Waschbecken, Föhn und Wasserkocher (incl. Tee, Kaffee, Milch) vorhanden, das moderne Bad war auf dem Flur. Leider klemmte die Zimmertür so stark, dass wir sie über Nacht einen spaltbreit offen gelassen haben, um beim Gang zum Bad nicht zu viel Lärm zu machen. Beim Frühstück im modern eingerichteten, hellen Frühstücksraum saßen alle Gäste gemeinsam an einem großen runden Tisch, in dessen Mitte auf einer großen Drehscheibe eine reiche Auswahl an Cerealien, frischem Obst, Säfte, Brotaufstrich und vieles mehr angeboten wurde; dazu frisch getoastetes Brot und Eier nach Wahl. Sehr originell und kommunikativ!

Great host, friendly clean and comfortable

Just a stop over for us on our way west, but loved our stay, and think we will return for longer to explore the area - only if we can stay in The Bay Tree!

Very accommodating we could check in early to get ready, excellent host and lovely breakfast

I found it difficult to find in the dark and didn't like finding the alleyway in the dark to get to the Lodge.

Gary, the host was excellent. Very kind and helpful. The room was very comfortable and clean. We would recommend this B&B.

Lovely quiet and relaxing stay, just what i needed.

I've no idea if this is a good hotel or not, I booked it for two sub contractors that were working in the area. I have now been trying to get a VAT receipt for almost a week, there only appears to be one member of staff... I have emailed and left voicemails & I still haven't got one. They did send me an online receipt of some sort, but it had no VAT breakdown or VAT reg no. This is really frustrating, as I have to have a VAT receipt in order to claim my money back from work and I have better things to do, than to keep chasing it.

Owners away and lady covering not on site on arrival. TV situated in bed but did not work. Would not come out of slot. Lady did not offer replacement or anyone to fix it. Shower cubicle edges dirty. Holes in sheets on bed. Carpet edges very dusty and dust on ledge in bathroom. Not really worthy of 4 AA star . No restaurant or bar despite advertising.

Exactly what I would have expected for a star rating it has, breakfast was exelent with a huge choice of options, owners were very accomodating to an early start.

Stay was good everything we wanted, the Bay Tree is a lovely place and great hosts.

Our stay was really comfortable. Gary (our host) was extremely helpful, first trying to order us a taxi to visit the Hardy Cottage and House, and then, when that proved fruitless, driving us to the Cottage himself, refusing to accept any payment for doing so.

Pleasant stay, nice clean room, lovely hosts. Nice information pack and a decent breakfast with lots of options.

Clean and comfortable Gary's friendly and helpful. Breakfast was great!

Very friendly and attentive proprietor!

Gary was awesome. I really enjoyed my stay there. Ron S

Great place to stay a short walk from the centre. Very clean and tidy and Gary is an excellent host.
