The Experience

On the edge of historic Wimborne, a beautifully renovated Georgian house with bags of space for families or groups of friends. Charming owners Ali and William live further down the lane at Deans Court and the front windows frame views of the iron gates and mature trees of their estate. Step through an arched doorway into a spacious architectural gem. High ceilings, cosy nooks, sash windows and a wonderful turned staircase rub shoulders with Ali’s flair for interior design. Vibrant kilims brighten white wooden floors, while patterned French linen blinds team well with walls painted in delicate shades. The seven peaceful bedrooms are filled with antiques and overlook the lawned garden or the estate; traditional bathrooms are stocked with fluffy white towels and Bramley products. Stroll to the farmers’ market for local produce and enjoy candlelit feasts in the theatrical, red dining room. There’s an entertainment room with all the screen fun you could want: TV, Netflix, Apple movies to rent, Xbox… And a hot tub for five just outside. The ancient Minster is a short walk and little ones will love the dinky ‘Model Village’.

June

Lovely place to spend time with our family celebrating our 60th wedding anniversary. Everything you needed was provided. Pleasant gardens with room for everyone to sit together. Hot tub an added bonus for everyone. Nice easy walk into Wimborne with plenty of choice for eating out or to get supplies etc.

We did not want to leave the Gate House at the end of our stay!! The house is absolutely beautiful and it is very well equipped with all one needs. It is spacious, very tastefully decorated and feels like a real home. We’ll try and be back as soon as we can.

Fantastic accommodation for the whole family within an easy walk of the Wimborne town centre. Relax in the Jacuzzi and enjoy the vast interior and well maintained garden.

We were a party of 13 and stayed at the gatehouse for our daughters 21st birthday. Only great things to say, from the online booking, the emails sent to Johnathon who was always extremely helpful, the welcome basket, the house itself and the town. A perfect weekend.

Sarah, Southampton

Booked The Gate House for a girls weekend. The house was perfect for us and very comfortable and well equipped. The welcome pack including biscuits, bread and fresh eggs were a wonderful touch. The location was excellent and just right for our walk into the town centre for a roast lunch at The Olive Branch as recommended by Jonathon at Deans Court. The wood burner was put to good use as well as the hot tub. Would definitely recommend staying at The Gate House.
