A delightful guesthouse situated away from the main road yet within easy reach of the city centre. It is particularly convenient for walking to the Royal Crescent where, it should be pointed out, traffic is no longer allowed. Interestingly, this is one of the few hotels that prides itself on providing cuisine using organic products, including organic wine. Candlelit dinners are offered in its lovely dining room which, like the rest of the house, is furnished and decorated in keeping with its age and ambiance. A ground floor bedroom is available for those with mobility problems and for the disabled traveling in company. Fishing can be arranged for those so disposed. Special prices for mid-week breaks are available on request.

Imposing and very Victorian, this is a hotel that has immense atmosphere and is a must for those with a love of great music as one of the present owners is a musician with the London Symphony Orchestra and no doubt knows what an international traveler expects in the way of accommodation.

All rooms have en-suite facilities and two rooms are suitable for family occupation. For that special away break a four-poster bed is available. Dorian House is open all year and prices for special breaks can be quoted for on request.
