Review of Bay Tree House
Excellant communication prior to stay.
Comfortable room with ensuite, tea, coffee and water supplies.
Additional use of fan over night was good.
Good breakfast.

The room was not cleaned for a while! Spiders everywhere. The bed sheet not clean, yellow marks everywhere. Horrible

Nice and clean - a good stay. The hosts were really great when I arrived quite late at night due to a missed train, and were really helpful in making sure I could get right into my room easily. I really appreciated their helpfulness and easy communication.
There are a number of pets about the house including dogs, who make a bit of noise in the evening and early morning, but not too bad.
I would be quite happy to stay here again.

Comfy stay
Gary was very friendly and helpful. He called on the day I was checking in to check on my arrival and also recommended places to eat.
The room was well appointed with a comfortable bed. The bathroom is spacious but has a lot of cobwebs and some of the residents.
The bedside is really convenient but I found someone else’s finger nails on it 😓
Breakfast the next morning was hearty and set me off to a good start.

The Bay Tree House was lovely. The room was clean and comfortable; Gary was friendly and helpful; and the location is a short walk to town. I also walked to both of Thomas Hardy’s homes. Max Gate was a leisurely ten minutes away; the cottage was a longer walk, but the route through the Dorset countryside was indescribably beautiful.

A relaxing stay
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay. The services are as described, the breakfast options are extensive and my room is spacious and clean. I appreciated the fact it is located within walking distance to the centre, but away from any noise to ensure a quiet night's sleep. If I'm in Dorchester again, I would certainly stay again. Highly recommended.

Nice B&B
Nice B&B.
Owners were friendly.
Room was a little dated, quite dusty and incredibly hot.

Short Notice
I booked late and last minute through an app, but it was no problem. After over 5 hours of driving I was ready to relax and sleep and Bay Tree was perfect for this. I booked the single room with ensuite so had to climb to the top floor but did this with ease, even with three bags. The room was clean and wonderfully comfortable. The breakfast in the morning was lovely and set me up well for my drive home. I would definitely stay here again if in the area. Hopefully in nicer weather so I could take advantage of the gorgeous looking outdoor area they have.
