In Georgian days, the Eastbury was a private residence. It is now an elegant hotel with a peaceful garden and excellent food, offering free parking.
The Eastbury Hotel is located in a quiet area, in the heart of Sherborne, just a 5-minute walk from the Sherborne Abbey and the town's main shopping parade. The hotel staff have a good local knowledge and can advise guests on what to do and see in the area.
The rooms have been individually decorated and furnished and all have an en suite bathroom. Each bedroom has luxury bathrobes, satellite TV and tea/coffee making facilities.
The award-winning Conservatory Restaurant is a popular place to enjoy the finest, freshest local ingredients. It overlooks the hotel's beautiful garden and al fresco dining is available on warm evenings. The bar/lounge serves snacks and afternoon tea.
Surrounding Area
The County of Dorset and Sherborne, its ancient capital, is rich in history, culture and interest - far too much to include in this brief introduction. Where could one start? Stonehenge? The New Forest? Our castles 'old' and the 'new'? built for Sir Walter Raleigh who found the 'old' (even though a gift from his grateful Queen) a bit on the uncomfortable side. Our park, laid down by Capability Brown, and one of the loveliest you could wish to see... and our Cathedral, now an Abbey from when Sherborne was a city. We maintain a library of information for the use of our guests and any advice we can offer derived from our local knowledge and love of this beautiful part of the country is yours for the asking.
