Yalbury Cottage
Dorchester, Dorset
Deep in Thomas Hardy country, this picture-perfect thatched cottage is a popular restaurant with rooms run with great charm by Ariane Jones and her husband, Jamie.
The Ollerod
Beaminster, Dorset
A 14th-century clergy house is home to this hotel, with bright, individually styled bedrooms, and a restaurant serving steaks and burgers as well as highly creative dishes, using locally sourced and home-grown produce.
The Pig on the Beach
Studland, Dorset
Hogwarts in style, this fairytale 1820s marine villa with its jumble of roofs, gables, gargoyles, towers and dormers, is set in gardens running down to a sandy beach. It delivers the usual Pig magic, with its dressed-down interiors, mismatched furniture, casual vibe, house bedrooms, shepherds' huts, thatched dovecotes, and a kitchen garden.
La Fleur de Lys
Shaftesbury, Dorset
There is a retro feel about this restaurant with rooms, little changed in more than three decades and run with pride, where affordable bedrooms are supplied with ground coffee and home-baked biscuits, and set-price and tasting menus demonstrate the chefs' skills without fancy gimmickry.
