_Knight Frank to sell multi award-winning boutique hotel in Dorset

Offers in excess of £2,500,000

The hotel is situated in the market town of Sherborne, an area known for its outstanding natural beauty and rich heritage. Surrounded by scenic English countryside and charming villages, guests are also within close proximity of historic sites such as Sherborne Castle and the world-famous Jurassic Coast.

Originally designed as a Georgian gentleman’s residence, the hotel has benefited from extensive refurbishment in recent years and now comprises 26 uniquely designed en suite rooms, including 5 cosy Victorian potting shed suites (complete with private terraces and underfloor heating) located in the picturesque walled garden. 

The hotel also features a restaurant, bar, function room, several guest lounges, and a boutique spa. In the warmer months, the garden welcomes both hotel residents and the public for lawn games and outdoor dining on the terrace, while the quirky ‘Garden Pod’ proves popular for year-round al fresco entertainment. 

Matthew Smith, Partner at Knight Frank's Hotel Agency, says: “The Eastbury Hotel & Spa has received considerable investment in recent years and represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a refurbished Georgian townhouse hotel in the centre of Sherborne which benefits from an array of award-winning facilities”

The hotel has received multiple awards including the ‘Taste of the West’ Gold Award, The Sunday Times ‘Best Places to Stay’ in 2020, Condé Nast Johansens Award for Excellence in the ‘Best Value category 2023' and a gold medal for ‘The Best Garden’ in South West in Bloom.
