What guests said about Shaftesbury:

A lovely village with some interesting history.

A lovely village with some interesting history. The museum was good with helpful staff. We visited the infamous Gold Hill, where the 1973 Hovis advert was filmed. Found a great little coffee shop opposite the town hall.

Lovely town to explore.

Lovely town to explore. Gold Hill the main attraction but the streets at the bottom of the hill have lots of character and some thatched properties..We found a lovely millennium garden and a some interesting shops. Not so much to do on a rainy day around the area this time of year as the NT properties are not open yet so suggest visiting March onwards.

Beautiful old town, cobbled streets, amazing views.

Beautiful old town, cobbled streets, amazing views. Gold Hill has to be seen (google Hovis advert) even my 20 year old was impressed. We had a wonderful breakfast at King Alfred’s Kitchen instead of eating at our hotel. We stayed at Grosvenor Arms Hotel, very central, no parking if you at staying but car parks are available. I live close to Arundel in West Sussex and it reminded me of the medieval history. Nice people, nice views, beautiful place to have a weekend away.

It is hard to give a review of Shaftesbury, having spent just an overnight in the town. From first appearances, though, this town and environs is well worth a longer stay to explore. The Restaurant, San Tonino, is well worth a visit.

I thought it was a gorgeous town and I definitely want to go back. The buildings are so old and the town is full of historical interest. We only had a couple of hours, after coming to visit friends, and it was pouring with rain, but we went to Gold Hill and had a lovely hot chocolate there, and visited a gallery, and just really enjoyed walking around. We saw a house which Thomas Hardy featured in 'Jude the Obscure' and a yew tree that pre-dates Christianity. We briefly visited the free Gold Hill Museum and definitely would like to go back there. Apparently in the summer there is a lido.

Location was just to the edge of the high street, so easy to access town center. Good amount of cafes, pubs, restaurants ect. This was the Fringe weekend which has hundreds of artists, performers over 2 days which was an added bonus. Kate our host was fantastic and made us feel very welcome, our room was spacious, with large t.v tea making facilities, comfortable large double bed. The bathroom had amazing views over Shaftesbury and was huge!

Fabulous Cottage-we stayed at the Crown cottage (2 bedroom house)! The host ensured we had all the help we needed promptly. We had a great time, the place is right in the middle, 2 mins to the magnificent Gold Hill (you cannot miss) and 10 mins to Castle Hill. If in Shaftesbury, do not miss this place!
