Excellent, would go bakc.
Pros:

Everything was great. Staff, food, helpfulness

Cons:

Dinner bookings finished very early. We tried to get a table at 8:10 on Sunday and were told the kitchen was closed. We should have read the in room information however it does seem very early to shut a hotel kitchen. Luckily there was a very nice Thai across the road.

Great getaway, and stay!
Pros:

Fabulous room 226

Cons:

Breakfast was great, but the wait was painful and rather prompt at clearing the continental table away. Basically, informing half an hour before service finished.

Cons:

Sash windows that you can’t open properly- on the 3rd floor in warm weather and the room was baking hot despite the Dyson air circulator - Farmers market of some sort we’re setting up stalls outside at the crack of dawn when we had already hardly slept a wink

Beautiful hotel in the heart of Bridport
Pros:

Lovely bar area outside, great breakfast, friendly staff.

Cons:

The stairs! We weren’t warned and are getting on a bit so found them difficult. Also four poster bed very high and difficult to get on, especially in the middle of the night.
