Clare Cottage is to die for. Susie’s hospitality is unsurpassable, her breakfasts classic, her rooms comfortable, her garden beautiful and welcoming. I particularly enjoyed the “slipper” tub in my room, the most comfortable, fully reclining baths I’ve ever had. Sherborne is a beautiful town, and Clare Cottage is a perfect place to explore it from.

I wanted to stay somewhere lovely and super comfortable for six days in February, just in case it poured with rain. But it didn’t. Hooray. Susie has an eye for beauty. She also makes an excellent breakfast and is very generous with her time and her recommendations of places to visit (food and otherwise). The cottage is beautifully decorated and super cosy. I’m so glad I stayed here and I will definitely be back when the natural world is awake again.

The flagstone floor, oak beam, and real fire in the dining room exemplify the authenticity of this house, but the same feel runs through the whole place. The house dates back to the 1600s and has dozens of historical features, but the bed was super-comfortable and the wifi worked 100%. Susie’s breakfast is second to none, and the tea and coffee in the room is top quality. And it’s a stone’s throw from the historic cathedral and exquisite old town: altogether truly excellent!

Very welcoming from the start. Susie was a Great host and the cottage is loverly. The Blue room we stayed in was very well equipped and the large bed was very comfortable and both of us had a Great nights sleep. Breakfast was cooked to what ever you requested and the presentation was was great. Overall a fantastic place to stay just minutes away from the centre of Sherborne a great place to come and enjoy.

We have just returned from an excellent five night stay at Clare Cottage. It certainly "ticks all the boxes" for a short break in Sherborne. It has private off-street parking, is situated just a 3/4 minute walk from the Abbey and High Street, the bedrooms are immaculate and very comfortable, the breakfasts are superb and Susie is a very warm, approachable and considerate host. She made us feel very much at home in her lovely cottage. It is an ideal venue from which to explore this delightful town and the surrounding countryside. We will certainly return when visiting the area.

I honestly have nothing adverse to say about this property and its charming and helpful hostess. Our room was large, furnished to a very high standard and was exceptionally clean and tidy. The "Garden Room" had direct access to the outside for evening relaxation. The property is a bit hidden being set back from the road amongst a group of cottages with their own parking area. House numberings are odd (229 at the low number end of the road?) but just look out for the catholic church that is on the opposite side of the road. Breakfast was faultless, high quality produce cooked well. We definitely hope to return.
