We spent two nights here with another couple and we had first class service in every respect. The rooms were spacious and full of character. The food was superb and the owners did everything possible to make our stay a memorable and enjoyable experience. We will return!

We stayed 3 nights from 2-5 September. Very good experience from initial contact through to reluctant departure after three nights. Genial hosts with valuable local knowledge; wonderful breakfasts made from locally sourced products much in evidence; and very comfortable rooms. All within a marvellous Edwardian property packed with original features and collected furniture and fittings.

This beautiful, period house makes a perfect B& B for anyone not wanting to drive much. Set back from the road behind a high cedar hedge you feel you are well into the country but in fact are right on a bus line that will allow you to explore the South Coast without driving. The home itself is spotless, well... More

A warm welcome in this lovely B&B in a splendid 1907 house with a large garden on the edge of Bridport. The house is beautifully decorated and furnished 'in period.' Breaklasts are exceptional, with local produce and homemade marmalades, jams and fruit. A very relaxing place to stay and explore the Dorset coast.

Having read the numerous impressive reviews about this establishment, my wife and I booked four nights whilst we explored Bridport and nearby beautiful Jurassic Coast. Charming hosts Don and Wendy went to endless trouble to ensure that our stay was perfect in every respect in their splendidly furnished Edwardian property. The welcome, comfort, cleanliness, decor, location, breakfasts and value for... More

Our third visit to Bridport, but first at the Gables was wonderful. The house is full of interesting and quirky features and has a wonderful history. Wendy is a wonderful presence at Breakfast while Don cooks the meal. They have a lovely home and our stay in room 3 was fantastic. No TV adds to the sense of slowing the... More

"The Gables" is simply the best b and b we have ever been to. Don and Wendy are such gracious hosts. They have a delightful home and have created the perfect place to stay. It was an absolute pleasure to be surrounded by such beautiful antique furniture and objects in every room. We were also warmly welcomed by Don and... More
