The staff at the King’s Head were all friendly and knowledgeable. Zoe went out of her way to help when my husband had an accident and her first aid skills were much appreciated. The oscillating fan in our room helped us cope with the excessive heat. Designated disabled parking was an added bonus. A room with a shower cubicle would have been an advantage but none in the hotel.

We were staying overnight to visit the Tivoli theatre . Parking was good and welcoming check-in . Room was clean and comfy beds but furniture tired and could do with refurbishment. Especially bathroom as having mobility issues we couldn’t use shower as it’s in a bath with no safety rails to be able to climb safely in and out .Not too bad as staying one night only. Fantastic breakfast with good selection and all fresh and no prepackaged items like butter or jam . All cooked to order to save on waste and excellent staff all round . I asked about disabled room re bath and no room is available which is a shame for such a welcoming hotel

The hotel is ideally located in the centre of Wimborne making many attractions and places of interest in the town easily accessible on foot. The hotel’s free car park is a plus but one has to be careful to take the right road to reach the car park because most roads in the town centre are one way streets. The hotel breakfast was excellent.

Well below expectations allowing for the fact that this is a 200 year old property. We were in a small top floor room which was difficult to access with luggage despite there being an antique lift to get to the second floor. It still required negotiating stairs and numerous fire doors. The room itself was stiflingly hot. Obviously no air-conditioning, the wooden casement window only opened about 10cm (for safety reasons). The manager advised there was an electric fan in the wardrobe which he kindly offered to set up. Notwithstanding the fan the room was uncomfortably hot for our one night stay. The shower over bath with a dreaded nylon shower curtain did not encourage multiple showers.The included breakfast was good and the staff were very pleasant & obliging.

Spent two nights last weekend. Enjoyed our visit. The staff were all really friendly and helpful. The whole place was really clean and we could not fault our room. Comfy beds with lovely white crisp bedding. Very warm and cosy. We had continental breakfast and ate our evening meal in the hotel on Sunday. Food was excellent. Well done and thanks to all at the Kings Head.
