Plumber was a family home when Thomas Hardy was living in nearby Sturminster Newton. Built by Charles Brune in the early 17th century Plumber has remained a family home of the Prideaux-Brunes ever since.
Part of its charm is that the hotel is very much run as a family affair, with Richard the ultimate host. As a result, it is incredibly friendly the Plumber Manor team make all of our guests feel genuinely welcome and Head Chef Louis knows exactly how to look after you.
