Review this restaurant

 

Proprietor: Mr R Prideaux-Brune

Head Chef: Brian Prideaux Brune

 

Plumber Manor Country House Hotel is a very special place. As a Hotel, it is without equal in Dorset. It is simply stunning but it isn't just a hotel......It is the dining experience that really sets it apart and fortunately for all of you, the restaurant is open to non-residents. I say fortunately because when you go there to dine, the family and staff will make you feel as though it is your own special restaurant so you owe it to yourself and your loved ones to go there just once in your life to sample a truly special dining experience.

Further Details

About Plumber Manor.

Plumber Manor is a true Country House that is also a hotel. It is owned and managed by true country people and was a family home when Thomas Hardy was living in nearby Sturminster Newton. It was built by Charles Brune in the early 17th century and has remained a family home of the Prideaux-Brunes ever since.

The House.

The house oozes character and history from the outside grounds and building elevation through to the gorgeous interior. The experience starts as soon as you enter the front door and as you walk into the reception area you instantly feel the calmess and tranquility that makes this house so very special.

It really is beautiful and the attention to detail is stunning as are the grounds which whatever the season will take your breath away. Hotels and restauarnts do not come any better then this. But don't think that just because it is so special that it will be very expensive. It isn't. In fact, when you consider that you can have a three course dinner for just £30.00, it is stunningly good value. Their Sunday Lunch is even more exceptional at just £23.00, so don't compromise, you only live once.

The Hotel.

The hotel, the archetypal English Country House Hotel, is run as a family triumvirate; Richard is ‘front of house’ and guaranteed to provide great entertainment. His brother Brian is Head Chef and Richard’s wife Alison is simply everywhere and they all work very hard to make you feel at home with genuine hospitality and their passion for their home and your visit with them is clearly evident the moment you walk in through the door.
