YHA - accommodation in Dorchester

Fantastic location and very clean. The staff were very welcoming, efficient and helpful. The location is brilliant. Very easy to explore the whole of Dorset and opposite a train station, (Moreton) if you want to use the train. There’s also a bus stop opposite. We were close to the Tank Museum, Clouds Hill and the village of Moreton has a beautiful church with stunning windows, and it’s where TE Lawrence had his funeral and he is buried close by- you can visit his grave. Excellent location for exploring. The food was good and reasonably priced- we ate there on the first evening. The only drawback was the road noise sometimes during rush hour, but this is not the fault of the owners! A lovely stay and very reasonable. We were here during a heatwave, so the aircon in the room was appreciated. There is also a co-op close by for convenience too. The breakfast was generous and included too. Staff very friendly and welcoming. The Frampton family are also historically connected to the Tolpuddle Martyrs (the family were on the wrong side of history, so this was a fun connection when we visited that area too! ) Lots to see and do and near Chesil Beach, all the Hardy bits and pieces, Cerne Abbas Giant, Dorchester, Blandford Forum, Poundbury, etc. -all easily reached by car.
