Plumber Manor, a quintessential Dorset country hotel, is a Jacobean house that has remained in the hands of the same family who built it in the early 1600s. Now operated as a luxury hotel, it is situated in the heart of Dorset’s scenic "vale of little dairies," famously portrayed in the works of Thomas Hardy.
In the main house, our luxury accommodation features six elegantly appointed bedrooms, accessed via an impressive yet inviting gallery adorned with family portraits, characteristic of fine Jacobean homes of the era. These rooms offer stunning views of the beautiful gardens and the surrounding Text taken from bandbstays.co.uk Dorset countryside.
An additional ten spacious rooms, some featuring charming window seats overlooking the river and gardens, are located in the beautifully restored natural stone barn that encircles the topiary courtyard. Four of these rooms have convenient parking access and are dog-friendly. Two of the courtyard rooms are also equipped for guests with limited mobility.
Each room includes homemade shortbread biscuits, tea and coffee facilities and all the comforts you would expect from a premier Dorset country house hotel, including a TV, phone, hairdryer and Wi-Fi.
The restaurant at Plumber Manor, open to non-residents, has earned a place in the Good Food Guide for 40 consecutive years. For over 400 years, the Prideaux-Brune family has been welcoming guests to Plumber Manor and it is no wonder that the manor now boasts one of the most beloved country house restaurants in Dorset, a particular favourite among discerning locals.
Plumber Manor offers an idyllic setting for private dinner parties, celebrations, or reunions, with many groups returning year after year. The relaxed, private atmosphere, beautiful manor grounds, delicious food, and attentive service make it a perfect choice.
While Dorset has many attractions nearby, the manor’s own gardens are a highlight. With towering trees, a sloping lawn, a white bridge over the Divelish Stream, and charming pig sculptures, the grounds provide a peaceful retreat. The stream, a tributary of the River Stour, adds to the tranquility of this serene escape.
