Situated near Dorchester, The Rivers Arms has a restaurant, bar, garden, and free WiFi throughout the property. Private parking can be arranged at an extra charge.

A Full English/Irish breakfast is available each morning at the inn.

William and Linny were exceptional hosts. Although it was a bit further out in the country than I orginally thought, it was in a beautiful village with charming cottages nearby. The chalets were amazingly peaceful and clean with everything you needed.

    We liked the good quality mattress The property is a 4 star inn and not a 4 star accommodation as we were made aware. So it did not conform to the standards of a 4 star accommodations. It was not clean and it’s dated. There is no phone in the room to call reception when things needed sorting and a LOT had to be fixed.

    The inn was in a great location for going to the harbour at Weymouth. They had large dining area , a bar and two outdoor seating areas . One with a lovely view over the countryside. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food was very good. We had breakfast included and also had an evening meal which was delicious.
