Priory Wareham
18-20 Church Street, Wareham, UK
17 Rooms
Contemporary Classic & Quiet
The Dorset town of Wareham grew up around this historic monastery on the banks of the River Frome, which explains its unique atmosphere: a country house mere steps from the town center. The Priory Wareham in its present form dates back to the 16th century and to the 1970s — the former date marking the current house’s construction, and the latter its establishment as a hotel.
Thus it was, in a way, a luxury boutique hotel before the phrase was coined; and as this family-owned hotel has been continuously updated over the years, it remains a fine example of modern country-house hospitality. Its rooms and suites, divided between the main house and the riverside boathouse, offer plenty of antique atmosphere, while the details of the décor show a contemporary designer’s touch. The restaurant, too, is in the contemporary-classic vein, helmed by a French-trained chef and serving dishes crafted from fresh, seasonal British ingredients.
