The Grosvenor Arms, Shaftesbury, Dorset, England - Explore & Book

"One of the oldest, highest and arguably the prettiest hill towns in rural England, Shaftesbury is the essence of olde Dorsetshire. It has Saxon roots, a whiff of Thomas Hardy, cobbles, thatch, and a bird’s-eye view of the Blackmore Vale from the top of iconic Gold Hill - famously captured in a sepia-tinted 1970s advert for Hovis loaves (directed, incidentally, by a young Ridley Scott). The Grosvenor Arms is the high street’s grande dame. Remodelled in the 18th century by the Duke of Westminster, it is Grade II listed with a showy Georgian frontage, 18 spacious bedrooms and a ballroom - but don’t imagine a trip down history’s memory lane. The once-faded inn has undergone several makeovers and is now a vibrant hub of activity, with a reclaimed bar, a cobbled courtyard, a spacious restaurant, and comfy leather sofas scattered here and there. A fun take on the country getaway. Highs Tasteful rooms with Italian cottons, rain showers and Nespresso coffee machines - the Cranborne and Balcony Suites are real show-stoppers A welcoming lounge-style bar with something for everyone: local ales, tasty cocktails, buzzing local chatter and dog-friendly Shaftesbury is a charming market town in the heart of green-welly country, within easy access of Longleat, Cranborne Chase and Stonehenge A relaxed restaurant serving lunch and dinner, with an authentic pizza oven and menu overseen by Tom Blake (formerly of River Cottage) Great value and a warm welcome Lows This is a centrally located hotel, so bar chatter and street noise can sometimes travel to rooms on the first floor and at the front of the hotel No on-site car park, but there are public car parks within walking distance No lift access to the second-floor rooms; if this is important, request a first-floor Standard or Premium Room" - Lesley Gillilan

Beautiful cozy, warm pub. Our waitress was adorable, friendly and very efficient - such a shame we didn’t get her name! Gorgeous little dog kept us company and accepted being fussed over very well :) Where do I start with the food! Delicious. Beautifully presented. 10/10 Compliments to the chef🙏🏻

Third time this year. Can't fault the team or the hotel. Fantastic standards and wonderful food. Lovely setting too, with Shaftesbury's Gold Hill on the doorstep. We've always been met with a warm and friendly welcome and the rooms are always spotless. Beds are really comfy too. ||We love it there and have told all our friends.

Cocktail night at The Grosvenor Arms was such a treat. The atmosphere was lively but still relaxed, with just the right balance of buzz and comfort. The cocktails were beautifully made — creative, balanced, and presented with flair (the espresso martini was a standout). The staff really know their craft and made the evening feel special from start to finish. A perfect spot in Shaftesbury for a stylish night out.

Love coming to Shaftesbury and always stay here! Very dog friendly. Rooms are absolutely lovely and all so different. Always used to have your local rump steak for dinner but you have taken it off and put flat iron on instead. Please bring back the rump as it was delicious!!

The Grovesnor Arms recently hosted our wedding rehearsal dinner for 40 people in their upstairs Assembly Room. The room itself is beautiful and made a lovely setting. Danielle was super helpful throughout the booking and the "feasting menu" we had went down really well with the guests. Guests dietary requirements were catered for easily and the whole evening was perfect!

Stayed here last weekend and it was fantastic. Was seen to straight away at reception when checking in, room was very spacious and had a great view out to the high street. Dinner was excellent and service at both dinner and breakfast was faultless. Will try to come back again soon.

We have been a group of 25 staying over the weekend at the hotel. It was a beautiful experience: hotel is lovely, clean; the personnel is friendly and caring; the rooms were great. The food was a culinary ecstasy - most amazing both for vegetarians and meat/fish eaters. The chef and the kitchen crew are simply amazing. We can't stop talking about the food. Super grateful for an amazing experience and will definitely come back again.
