The Priory Hotel

© The Priory Hotel / Expedia
This boutique hotel sits on the banks of the River Frome in the idyllic village of Wareham. Rooms with gold trim and exposed brick walls whisper of the building’s former life as a priory and are warm and inviting. They’re split across the main house and boathouse – the latter of which sits directly on the river bank so you can fall asleep to the sound of rushing water. The main pull to the Priory Hotel is the fine-dining restaurant that serves contemporary, locally sourced British cuisine.
