The breakfasts were absolutely scrumptious and our preferences were beautifully catered for. They set us up magnificently for our packed 2-day memorable visit to Sherborne. Susie was incredibly gracious to share her heavenly home with us. The Blue Room was everything I could have ever wished for in luxury, cleanliness and fun! Clare Cottage is centrally positioned and therefore very easy to get around on foot. THANK YOU VERY MUCH INDEED SUSIE.

I loved everything.

A beautiful and delightful home. Bedrooms are very clean, comfortable and has everything that you would want with extra touches. The breakfasts each morning are delicious, with a wide variety of choice all freshly cooked. Susie is a charming hostess and is very warm, friendly and helpful. The location is also very good with easy access to the town centre, restaurants and local attractions.

Clare Cottage is in a quiet location but situated very close to the Abbey, pubs, restaurants, shops and a short pleasant walk to the lovely castle. Susie is a very welcoming host ,very helpful and provided lots of useful information. We stayed in the garden room which was cool and airy even in this hot spell. We had the best breakfast that we have ever had in a b& b or hotel, made of the local produce and so tasty.

If we could have stayed a few more nights!!

The breakfast was excellent. It was just a short walk into town for the restaurants and was in easy reach of Sherborne Castle and the Abbey.

The phone number on the Booking.com website was incorrect even though the owner of Clare Cottage had asked them to change it. This made the initial contact at the property a bit difficult. Nothing to do with Clare Cottage but the Half Moon pub was awful and is best avoided.

This is an exceptional B&B- so comfortable (excellent beds and Egyptian Cotton linen), lovely decor, tea/coffee in our room, our own spotless bathroom with plenty of hot water. Susie is a lovely host and prepared the most delicious breakfast. Clare’s Cottage is quiet and yet only a couple of minutes walk from the center of Sherborne. Highly recommend.

Breakfast was 5 star hotel level, if not better. Large room and bathroom. Lovely furnishings. Very relaxing. Susie the owner is great. Shower is wonderful. The whole experience was quite exceptional. So much thought and effort has gone into creating a wonderful B&B.

Nothing.

The room was large with a huge comfy bed. The free standing bath was a touch of luxury. The addition of a coffee maker was very welcome. Homemade shortbread was a real treat. Susie was a great host & breakfast was very enjoyable. We were also able to use a well appointed gardenin which to enjoy a glass of wine. Clare Cottage was in a great location for the Town, The Abbey & The Castle

The lack of a wardrobe could be an issue for stays longer than a couple of nights.

Breakfasts were wonderful! Susie is the most welcoming host and the room was exquisite. Location, within 2 minutes walk from the delightful Sherborne town centre with its varied Pubs and restaurants, is just perfect.

Couldn’t be better

Excellent breakfast. Location perfect (as we were attending a concert in Sherborne Abbey). Our hostess had lots of information about the local area and we were guided by her on the choice of walks.
