Sherborne: The Abbey Town Awaits

Nestled in West Dorset, Sherborne offers a blend of historical depth and rural tranquility. It’s a town renowned for its two magnificent castles, one a picturesque ruin and the other a grand house, both telling tales of centuries past. The Abbey, a substantial monastic church, forms the spiritual and architectural heart, its fan vaulting a testament to medieval craftsmanship. Beyond these principal landmarks, the town maintains a character shaped by its independent schools and a well-preserved high street.

Visitors often appreciate the opportunity to explore its historic buildings and the established educational institutions that give the town a distinctive atmosphere. Local independent shops and eateries line the streets, providing various goods and refreshments. The surrounding Dorset countryside, with its rolling hills and walking routes, complements the town’s built heritage, making it a place of interest for those seeking a quiet escape with historical connections.

Where to book your hotel in Sherborne

For visitors to Sherborne, the most common area to book accommodation is generally within the town centre, as it offers convenient access to local amenities and attractions.

The town centre itself is very popular, primarily around Cheap Street and the surrounding lanes. Here, you'll find a mix of traditional inns, often with rooms above a pub, and smaller, independent hotels. This area is ideal for those who wish to be within walking distance of Sherborne Abbey, Sherborne Castle, and the historic almshouses. There are numerous independent shops, cafés, and restaurants such as The Green and Oliver's, as well as the Sherborne Arts Centre, which hosts various performances and exhibitions.

Venturing slightly west of the main thoroughfare, towards Long Street, you might discover boutique bed and breakfasts housed in period properties. This part of town, while still central, feels a touch more residential and tranquil, yet remains close to all facilities. It's a good option if you prefer a quieter stay but still want easy access to the abbey and local eateries.

Sherborne has its own railway station, Sherborne, which is handily located just a short walk from the town centre hotels, making arrival and departure straightforward. For those arriving by air, Bristol Airport and Bournemouth Airport are the most accessible, both offering connections to Sherborne via road or rail links from nearby cities. When choosing a hotel, consider its proximity to the station if you plan to rely on public transport for onward journeys or arrivals.

Find the best hotel deals in Sherborne

When planning a trip to Sherborne, there are a few practical considerations for hotel bookings if you're looking to manage costs. Accommodation prices typically see an uplift during the warmer months, especially from June to August. This period coincides with the main summer holiday season and local events, such as the Sherborne Pack Fair which traditionally takes place in October but can still impact the surrounding weeks. The Sherborne Abbey Festival, held every two years in May, is another busy time, so checking its schedule is advisable.

For potentially better rates, consider visiting during the quieter periods, particularly from November to February, excluding the Christmas and New Year break. Booking well in advance, especially for any dates in the higher demand seasons, often yields more favourable prices than last-minute reservations. Staying a little outside the town centre can also sometimes present more economical options.
