This delightful hotel tucked away in Charmouth is a real treat. Not only is the hotel itself charming but the food is delicious and all locally sourced - (their most recent Gold award is well deserved!) I found it a really relaxing retreat from the city and the hospitality of the owners made it a memorable experience. More

My husbandand I spent a wonderful evening at the restaurant at the White House during October half term. I can honestly say that it was one of the very best meals we have eaten for a long, long time. The food was beautifully prepared, expertly cooked with lovely presentation. The staff were most welcoming and Ian had a long chat... More

...we enjoyed our two nights at the beautiful White House Hotel so much that we had to say 'thanks'. Excellent food, comfortable room, and friendly service - nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff, even when we inadvertently broke their shower. Sorry! More

We stayed for two nights and really enjoyed our stay. The hotel was elegant and in a peaceful, pretty spot of Charmouth. On arrival we were greeted with refreshments and a friendly smile. Our room was really pretty, the shower was heavenly especially after a days walking. It was peaceful and relaxing. Breakfast was delicious with a great choice of... More

Just back from lovely stay on Juraissac Coast of England. Our lodgings were at the White House Hotel in Charmouth...such a treat. We arrived on Monday and Ian sent us to the local Pub as his kitchen is "down" on Mondays. We enjoyed our nice meal down the road but were dissappointed to only sample Ian's excellent fare for one...

We had a very pleasant stay at the White House. We decided to give 4 stars overall for the following reasons: - We're vegetarian and the options for breakfast were a bit limited compared to some - If you have a long or a wide vehicle, you're unlikely to be able to park at the back - My partner's allergic...

Thank you for your review and we are pleased you enjoyed most aspects of your stay. To answer a couple of your points -Our cats do occasionally wander in to the lounge but they do not roam freely throughout the building. -The driveway in our Regency house was not designed with modern large cars in mind but is perfectly negotiable...

Just spent a weekend at The White House with four old friends. Breakfast is excellent and dinner (we ate Dinner 2 nights running) was one of the best meals we have ever had. Spent a long time arguing about which menu choice was best (the answer was the lamb) but everything was amazing. Liz, Ian and staff very welcoming. Rooms... More

Thank you for your lovely review. We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay and thank you for choosing us for your weekend away. The lamb from our friends Clive and Jo at Wyld Meadow Farm just up the road is probably the best lamb I have ever used. Their beef is pretty special too! We are very fortunate... More
