The owner Neil was friendly and welcoming on our arrival. The bar area has modern funky furniture and plenty of bright colours. We would like to go back. Rosemary was friendly and chatty when we left. Thank you both

Perfection
By far the best hotel on a week long tour of Hampshire/Dorset/Devon. We stayed in a variety of places (including a huge and quite fabulous High-Victorian mansion in the New Forest) but The Dower House was far and away…
