Summer Lodge ReviewIn this country-house hotel (a Relais & Châteaux property) 24km (15 miles) north of Dorchester, resident owners Nigel and Margaret Corbett provide care, courtesy, and comfort. Once home to heirs of the earls of Ilchester, the house, in the village of Evershot, now stands on 1.6 hectares (4 acres) of secluded gardens. Evershot appears as Evershed in Tess of the D'Urbervilles, and author Thomas Hardy (that name again) designed a wing of the house. In this relaxed, informal atmosphere, bedrooms have views of either the garden or over village rooftops to fields beyond. The hotel is regularly redecorated and recarpeted. Bedrooms are individually decorated and have many comforts. Rooms and suites are split among the main building, a coach house, and three cottages. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip. Related Features Partner Deals:

3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
