Superb service - everyone who looked after us was friendly, professional and efficient. We had a delicious dinner and breakfast was also absolutely great - lovely quality, very generous and served by lovely friendly staff. Our little dog was made as welcome as the humans, which is also very important to us. Aside from all that, it’s a beautiful village and our accommodation was clean and spacious. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend- we will be back! Thank you.

The food - all locally sourced and grown - was excellent. Service was impeccable. The rooms were reasonably spacious and well-appointed. The only glitch was flaky wifi that did not work well in our room, but in the overall experience, that was a minor point.

The Langton arms

The Langton arms is set in a small village. The roads to and from the hotel are small country roads, single track in places, which are quite difficult to negotiate in the dark. The food is really good, with a choice of both meat and vegetarian options. The accommodation is set apart from the main building - in chalet type accommodation. The bathroom was a bit cold, but the heating in the bedroom was more than adequate. The room was comfortable and clean. In the pub and restaurant, it was very difficult to get a phone signal, but was ok in the room. WiFi overall was good. Good number of beers on tap. I was visiting someone in Blandford forum - so the location was ideal. Staff were courteous and friendly

Pub in the country

Very quiet surroundings. TV did not work, and WiFi extender needed turning on, which I found out on day 2. The room was very clean and had tea and coffee maker nicely laid out. I found the menu a little limited, and would loved to see a steak pie in the offering. Breakfast was very good, and the staff were pleasant. In the future it might help if an electric car charge point was put in place for those who have electric or hybrid vehicles.

Hotel set in beautiful countryside

Arrived quite late and met by a very friendly member of the team. Taken to our room which was very clean excellent facilities and a very comfortable night had. Breakfast was again excellent with fresh produce and a very lovely lady that dealt with us. Beautiful hotel and staff that couldn't be more helpful. Would recommend to family and friends.

Great food but no heating

The Langton arms is a lovely traditional pub with rooms. Check in was quick and staff very friendly. Room is coach house style with plenty of room. Food is fantastic here and best pie I’ve ever had.! However the big let down for me was that the room was incredibly cold during the night, happened to bump into an electrician on the way out who advised he had disconnected the heater as he was replacing it! The convector heater was connected but this didn’t work. I did inform staff on check out but no apology. I’d think twice about staying again.

Very good place to stay on business trip

Great people, great food, I enjoyed my stay! Only thing is due to no pavements & street lights in the surrounding areas, on wintery cold evenings I was room bound....
