Kerrington House was a good stop off for us on our way to Cornwall, not too far off the road and easily located - even on a dark and stormy December night!

There is a small honesty bar that visitors are able to use and a comfy lounge area,

We had a great room with a really comfortable bed. There was a good choice for breakfast next morning with plenty to choose from.

We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again and would highly recommend!

A Lovely Stay on the Jurassic Coast

We spent a night here during our long weekend trip to the Jurassic Coast. Fiona was delightful, kind, and so friendly. She warmly greeted us at check in and gave us all of the needed details about our stay. We stayed in room 4 \"Gardenia\" and found it to be very spacious and extremely comfortable with a large bathroom and a very comfortable bed. Breakfast the next morning was made-to-order and wonderful fuel for our long day of fossil hunting. When back in the area, we will absolutely stay here again. The value for the money is outstanding and it's impossible to find a hotel that will treat you better than Fiona will.

We were given a great upgrade - a spacious room upstairs with a large very comfortable bed, and a spacious bathroom too. The English breakfast in the morning was beautifully prepared and a real delight. I wish we could have stayed longer but I had to get back to work in the morning.

Bed was comfortable and room warm when heating on. Water was not very hot either in the evening or morning, so showering wasn't particularly great and shower lacked any force. Dining room comfortable with snowy white tablecloths. Plenty of food choice for breakfast and well cooked.
Was not happy that a large dog was blocking the doorway on arrival and owner slow to arrive to deal with it. Although assured said dog was friendly ( and appeared to be so) we were not happy about this as we are not 'doggy' people. There was also a distinct smell of dog on arrival, which was off putting, but not upstairs in the bedrooms.

We were given the 'Gardenia' ground floor room which turns out to be an apartment. It is very comfortable and the shower, once you manage to turn it on, is excellent. The double bed isn't big but we both slept well because it is 'solid' (I don't mean 'hard'). And the lighting is bright which we like.
My husband needs fresh air but we couldn't open the window. There's a small hemmed-in patio.
Breakfast was as expected just that my croissant was burnt and the coffee a bit diluted.
Fiona and the two ladies helping her are warm and friendly. We felt welcome.
The hotel is about 15 minutes' walk from the railway station and about the same distance to the town centre. It is market day on Thursday.
We had enjoyed our stay in this hotel and are most likely to stay overnight again.

We booked this hotel for our anniversary, and so that we could eat at the nearby River Cottage Canteen. The hotel owner was extremely friendly and accommodating, the breakfast the following morning was cooked to order - we couldn't have asked for more. The room was beautifully decorated and very inviting, with a huge amount of thoughtfulness of the little details that made our stay even more comfortable and enjoyable. The hotel itself is a stunning period property and immaculate inside, set within very well kept mature gardens. The hotel owner also took her time to talk about the local beaches and places to visit the following day.

An excellent place to stay

We stayed in the Gardenia room which is beautifully decorated and furnished, very spacious and faces the very attractive garden. The bathroom is also very spacious and is supplied with everything that you are likely to need. We used the Kerrington as a base to visit Lyme Regis, where we went for a meal in the evening at The Royal Standard on the Harbour - great food and reasonably priced, as well as the next day for a general walk around. It's a lovely town to visit for a day or two and only takes 10 to 15 minutes to get there from the Hotel. Axminster itself was a little quiet, especially on a Sunday!
Fiona produced a very nice breakfast which had an excellent choice of hot and cold food.
We were both extremely pleased with our choice of where to spend the night and only regretted that we hadn't been able to stay longer. We will be going back.

Tip: If you are going to Lyme Regis and reasonably fit, use Holmbush Car Park and walk down the hill. It's a bargain at two pounds a day.

Kerrington House

If you are a heavy sleeper you might sleep well here, which is why we ticked the recommend box, as the room was big, airy and comfortable. But it's on quite a busy road, so the traffic kept us awake until late at night as we are quite light sleepers. Also, the house is a nice big old building, but the walls are surprisingly thin, and we could hear people snoring in two other rooms.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. But what let it down for us was that they let themselves into our room to clean it while we were downstairs at breakfast. Which is not really acceptable in our view, and as this doesn't normally happen in our experience, we weren't expecting it. Perhaps we could have been warned on arrival.

Clean, comfortable small hotel with friendly owner and staff (and lovely Newfoundland dog Beatrice who can be made to be scarce if you don't happen to like dogs). There's plenty of choice on the breakfast menu and the portions are ample. Refreshments and toiletries are provided in good supply in the rooms.
Axminster itself is a pleasant but rather dull town, although there are a couple of good restaurants there. However it provides a suitable base for exploring other parts of Devon and neighbouring counties and there is ample parking space if you're thinking of doing so by car. If you want to use buses and trains instead Axminster Station (where both types of transport can be boarded) is less than ten minutes' walk from the hotel.
