Accommodation Description:
The Kings Head is a 200-year-old hotel on the town square in Wimborne Minster.

It has free Wi-Fi internet access, a bar, a good-value restaurant and free guest parking.

Poole is 20 minutes? drive away, and Bournemouth and Southampton are a 30-minute drive away.

The restaurant serves good-value food all day, and Laing?s Bar serves coffee and pastries.

The en suite bedrooms have a traditional decor and are furnished to a high standard.

The original building dates back to the 1800s, and is decorated with old photographs that detail its history.

Large windows, sofas and comfy armchairs create an elegant, traditional ambiance.

The King?s Head Hotel is dedicated to Henry VII, the first Tudor monarch who, by defeating Richard III at the Battle of Bosworth Field, brought the War of the Roses to an end. The original building, built around the 1800s, was known as The Laing's Hotel until the turn of the century, when another floor was added to make it into the centrepiece of the town square that it is today, dedicated now to Henry VII. The ground floor underwent a major refurbishment in 2007, giving it a contemporary feel but retaining its traditional ambience. For business events and special occasions, the hotel features The Minster Room. Wheelchair access and a lift make the hotel easily accessible to the disabled.

From: £24.00
