A lovely stay in the garden suite at Bramilies.
The garden suite was lovely, had use of the garden to sit in. Very clean, comfortable with nice size double bedroom & living room with sofa bed & TV with Netflix etc. WiFi very good. We had our first breakfast served to us in the garden as the weather was beautiful. Breakfast was amazing with fresh fruit platter, cereal, cooked breakfast choices & toast. Our hosts were very friendly, helpful& made our stay a very happy one. A true home from home.
The one thing to be aware of is that the shower cubicle opens into the bedroom & the toilet & hand basin are separate but wasn't a huge problem for us.
One thing to note Hotel.com.site said towels & bedding were not included this is not correct both were included. Maybe Hotels.com could alter this on their site.

Nicely maintained property, clean and tidy. You have all the amenities that you need. Nice backyard with tables and chairs where you can have your morning breakfast on a sunny day.
Alison is a great host. We were new to the city, exploring things. Her mother and she gave us good guidances about the places to visit nearby. We just followed their advice and had a great experience. Got some time to play with cute cats - Laurel and Hardy.
Her mother has great memory, we learnt many things about the area's history just by talking to her.
Alison was a kind and friendly host. She made us delicious and sumptuous breakfast everyday. I'd definitely stay there again.

I can not fault anything, the host was superb, the room was clean, tidy, bed was comfy, the breakfast was fabulous - i.e. fresh fruit & homemade marmelade. I have no hesitation recommending this B&B.

Lovely BnB
We would highly recommend this BnB.
Location is great, just a nice and easy 10 minute walk into the centre of Dorchester.
The room itself was good. Comfortable and had everything that we needed. Very quiet.
The staff, Alison and her mother, were really good. We felt very welcomed and looked after. The breakfast was great, tasty and hearty! Their local knowledge of what to see and do in the surrounding area was a real bonus, very useful.

Fantastic friendly find
Wonderful few nights in the garden suite. Plenty of space for a family of 3/4, much more than a cramped budget hotel. Delicious breakfast and such a choice with fresh smoothies, fruit platter, cereal, toast and cooked breakfast options. Very clean room and very friendly family

Blue heaven
Bramlies is very clean and beautifully decorated. We stayed in the blue room and it was great for just the two of us. My grandson and I came over from the States and recieved a very warm welcome from Sue and Adie. The breakfast was the best i've ever had. I highly recommend this place to anyone who wants a homely atmosphere.

Close to city. Free parking.
The hotel was near the town of Dorchester and lot’s of things to see and do are within walking distance.
Nice welcome with tea and cake!
Breakfast was very nice and staff helpful with planning our trips.
We stayed in the garden-suite with a family of four. With the sofa bed unfolded there was not much space left to leave our luggage but furhermore we had a great stay!
Note: there are cats in the house. (Not in the rooms!) We love cats so no problems there but be warned if you have allergies.

super nette Gastgeber.
tolles umfangreiches Frühstück und schönes Apartment im Garten. Wir haben wunderbar geschlafen. Es war sehr ruhig.
Fußläufig von Poudbery entfernt. Das ist die Stadt die Prinz Charles als Muster-Stadt entworfen hat und die heute sehr gefragt ist. Es ist der Gegenentwurf zu den ganzen schrecklichen individuellen Geschmacksentgleisungen die passieren, wenn man die Leute einfach mehr oder weniger machen läßt was sie wollen.
