Stayed for three nights recently. Had the Sunday lunch and for the price it wasn't as good as I'd hoped. It was warm at best and a bit bland. My roast beef tasted reheated but the yorkshire was nice. Cauliflower "cheese" was terrible. It was more of a runny mustard sauce over the top. A rare bonus having air-conditioning in the room. Not seen very often in the UK and I'm sure will be appreciated when it gets warmer. Our room was spotlessly clean and nicely decorated. I can see what the vision was but we didn't find it practical. Good selection of tea and coffee. The bedside tables are a hazard. We think flamingo/crane(?) legs with an extremely heavy glass top which was top heavy. It wobbled at the slightest touch. No pillow protectors. No tissues. Nowhere to hang the hand towel. Only able to hang one bath towel. Nowhere to put toiletries/make up, which I really didn't like. No Flannels. Toilet seat didn't stay up, which was a little awkward for my other half. A note under the door warning of a smoke alarm test would avoid a moment of concern because without, the next time the alarm goes off people may think it's also a test. Window opens but doesn't stay open. Mattresses are difficult to get right but ours was extremely uncomfortable. Like sleeping on a board. A nice oak wardrobe in the corner would be much nicer than the hanging stand. More practical and everything would be out of sight. Train noise - slight rumble but the beeped horn every 10/15 minutes is definitely heard. Sometimes through the night. If you are a light sleeper, a room at the back of the hotel might be the better option. 30 second walk to the train station.

My partner & I stayed here for 2 nights and would definitely recommend. The main reason for our trip was to visit Durdle Door and other beaches on the south coast. Looking at hotels in Weymouth, we found that The Frampton Arms was roughly half the price and only a short car journey away (20-30 mins). When booking we did not realise that Moreton train station was over the road- which was super convenient as we went to Weymouth for dinner (£6 adult evening return) and could have a couple of drinks! The room was clean, spacious and decorated nicely, with tea & coffee facilities, hair dryer, hot/cold air unit and TV. The bed was comfortable, but of course there was noise from the train line. We dined in the restaurant on a Friday night and sadly we were one of very few tables, so the atmosphere lacked. The food was delicious, very good value and we could not fault the service. In fact all staff members were friendly, welcoming and helpful.

We were staying in Tincleton and came across this gem! We as a family all ate starters, mains and puddings and couldn't fault a thing! The food was hot on arrival, no long wait times, food tasted devine and the service was top notch! Ruby the waitress in particular was so fantastic with my 3 year old and both ladies were very attentive. Regularly asking for drinks, if we needed anything extra, enjoyed our courses and also helped show us a separate menu for any intolerances we may have. Portions just the right size and not pretentious. Us as a family don't eat out much because food is regularly disappointing and tbh can cook better and cheaper than a lot establishments. So to find somewhere that ticked every box was such a joy and like a said The Frampton Arms is a gem!

Absolutely terrible experience here! Sat at a table with filthy glasses on the table, should have known then not to order but we didn’t say anything as we weren’t drinking from them. Went ahead with the order, they got the order wrong but again didn’t make a fuss, they just removed the bacon from the burger (assume they just pulled it out as the plate came back just minus the bacon). Then noticed a hair stuck to the stick going through the burger- highlighted this to the waitress but reluctantly agreed to keep as it was just on the stick and didn’t want worse to come back out after highlighting it to the kitchen. The chips we did try were nice, but not consistently hot. Many were cold and some were warm, none of them hot, so hopefully these didn’t come from other plates! Took a bite of the burger, only to find ANOTHER hair! Both hairs appeared to be animal hair, possibly cat or dog hair. We were offered a replacement but at this point we were put off of our food for good for obvious reasons and asked to just leave quietly without making a fuss. We waited to ensure that the bill was not charged however the manager still wanted to charge for the drinks which we found disgusting- the manager didn’t even come out to speak to us, just told the waitress to charge us ! We were charged nearly £9 for a beer and a Pepsi max - even though the evening had been ruined and we left without eating (unless you count the hair!). Very poor management, would naturally have assumed that by way of an apology that the least would be not to charge for the drinks, but no these were still charged. So, if you enjoy hair in your food and drinking from a glass with someone else lipstick on it, you’ll love it here. If you don’t, my advice would be try somewhere else. These things happen sometimes and we would have left quietly and not said another word- we did try and continue the meal after the first hair but the second was just a joke. To be asked to pay for the drinks having barely touched the food after finding 2 hairs (literally ate a few chips and took a bite of one burger) is...

Grandad, Dad and two young Grandsons stayed one night , in order to visit Bovington Tank Museum. Location was perfect for us , being near to Lulwoth Cove and Durdle Door was a bonus. We stayed in two ground floor double rooms 8 & 9. The rooms were very nice,recently refurbished, lovely comfortable beds. Well presented. Bathroom possibly needed a bit of tlc, however clean and well stocked with towels and shampoos etc. Tea & coffee making facilities in the room (well stocked) Large flat screen wall mounted TV.||I did have an issue with using the over the bath shower , the entry and exit stepping over a high bath caused me a major issue due to no wall handles to assist, for me this was very uncomfortable and I felt unsafe. There was no emergancy help call button ||My young Grandsons aged 11 and 13 staying in the next room also reported this as well. The temperature of the shower not consistent going from acceptable to unacceptable hot. ||The restaurant and bar were great, extensive menu and drinks selection. The meals were really good , we had Roast pork , fish and chips and scampi and chips. They were tremendous, I was unable to do justice to my roast. Prices were very good too, the bar and restaurant staff were very attentive and customer focused. Continental breakfast included . Parking okay and free WiFi included. Darts and pool table The rear gardens and very large front courtyard looked very good.| |Overall the welcome and support by the all the staff was excellent.||I reported my shower experience and was listened to and staff welcomed my feedback. They suggested if we returned we requested upstairs rooms which have walk in showers available. However for elderly guests with mobility issues it would make sense to have these on the ground floor. ||Overall a very good Inn, with nice rooms , good restaurant , reasonable prices and very attentative staff. Nice location , oh yes next to the Moreton railway station , with great connections to Weymouth. 15 minutes drive to Lulworth and...

Choose to stay at as had a good rating and close to Durdle Door. Also my wife doesn't eat meat and so had some good veggie stuff.||On the main road so easy to find and had a good sized car park. Check in was at a desk just next to the bar. Had to wait a bit as the girl was dealing with something but the bar tender kept coming round to let us know she would be with us. When she came round she was on the phone dealing with a large booking but apologised when done. Took her a few seconds to sort us out.||So our room was just in the main courtyard. It was compact but was really neat and tidy. Wife loved the shower, nice and strong. The only downside was that there were seats right outside our door. We'd had a day of hiking so hit the bed early, about 2200 and you could hear people talking outside, still they were gone by 11. ||So we ate in the restaurant. My wife is not fussed ever about eating out, would always prefer to cook, but had no choice in this instance. I had chosen as it some good veggie choices. What she wanted was the normal burger (she liked all the stuff in the normal burger compared to the veggie option) but with the houllomi, which they did for her, which was good. We had the sharing plater of olives and breads which was good. I had my old favourite of fish and chips, which was really nice, good crispy batter and chips. Tartar sauce was good, liked the peas, wife not so much. With a couple of drinks, the bill came to £50 which I thought was good value and even more so as my wife really liked it (loved the burger sauce).||Slept well, had really good A/C. Breakfast was continental, which we both liked. I like a cooked breakfast but not before a walk so suited us both, and had a good choice of bits. ||All in all, we liked the place. Really good staff, loved the food, nice room and great location. Would easily recommend and...
