When you step inside The Priory, we want you to relax, unwind and enjoy yourself. Situated in the market town of Wareham, this is a country hotel with its own special charm. Set in exquisite, well-cared-for gardens that are worth a day out in their own right, The Priory retains its heritage as a grand private house and historic monastery with unique, one-off antiques and bespoke interiors, making it a one-of-a-kind, special place to stay.

Coming to stay at The Priory, you will find that we have complemented the building’s traditional country and historical charm with modern creature comforts such as our new Garden Room restaurant to make your stay comfortable and relaxing.

We look forward to welcoming you soon!

Steeped in history, The Priory remains true to its heritage as a monastery and the history of the property alone is reason enough to visit. Situated in a conservation area, the Grade 2 star-listed building dates back to as early as 809. We think this is pretty special and makes us one of the oldest hotels in Dorset. Naturally, you can expect plenty of quirks and uniqueness from your stay at The Priory.

The Priory Hotel stands in over four acres of carefully and lovingly cultivated English cottage gardens, on the banks of the River Frome. Explore the gardens whatever the season or simply enjoy your coffee, afternoon tea or lunch alfresco while taking in your surroundings. Ideally situated as the gateway to the Isle of Purbeck, you will never be short of beautiful coastline, history and memorable experiences.

PoB Hotels

We are a proud member of PoB Hotels, a collection of carefully curated rooms, the finest restaurants and spas, and the most authentic regional experiences across the British Isles.

PoB Hotels only invite the very best independent hotels to join their collection – but there’s much more to it than that. Think of PoB Hotels as the key and each hotel as a door to new experiences. Each completely unique. Each hand-picked. Each the Pride of Britain.

Established in 1982 by a group of 12 passionate hoteliers, PoB Hotels today has grown to over 50 city-based, countryside, and coastal locations. The essence of PoB Hotels is built on its British heritage, honouring provenance, and sincere, authentic service. They love the independent nature and unique culture of each property. What ties the hotels together is not being the same but celebrating individuality with a common vision- offering guests the best experiences.

They’re all about pairing each guest with an experience that’s extraordinary and unique, so all members are inspected annually to ensure they live up to the PoB standard. Plus, admission of new members is subject to successfully passing an anonymous overnight inspection and a ballot of the membership.
