Situated near Dorchester, The Rivers Arms has a restaurant, bar, garden, and free WiFi throughout the property. Private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

A Full English/Irish breakfast is available each morning at the inn.

William and Linny were exceptional hosts. Although it was a bit further out in the country than I orginally thought, it was in a beautiful village with charming cottages nearby. The chalets were amazingly peaceful and clean with everything you needed.

    This is our second stay this year and we loved it again . We chose a standard room this time and had a fabulous room on floor 2. There was a lovely view of Queen Mother Square from the window. The room was well equipped with tea/coffee making facilities . The bed was super comfy and the bathroom was lovely. We enjoyed our breakfast each morning . There was lots to choose from . We also dined both nights in the bar for dinner . The food was exceptional .

    Very friendly staff, check in carried out efficiently and made to feel welcome. Room was very comfortable, although the room overlooked the main road, you couldn`t hear any road noise. Shower was excellent. Had dinner in the restaurant which was really nice and again the staff were wonderful. Breakfast was cereal , toast pastries etc and made a pleasant change fro a cooked breakfast.All in all a lovely stay and hope to return soon.
