DINING

The dining menus meet and exceed the exacting requirements of the Relais & Chateaux’s gastronomic standards, and the restaurant has recently been awarded Hotel Restaurant of the Year at the Dorset Food & Drinks Awards. Fine dining and impeccable service go hand-in-hand at Summer Lodge and a renowned sommelier will be on hand to offer the finest suggestion of wine to accompany your meal. You can enjoy both in the light and airy conservatory, the elegant Restaurant, or in the warm coziness of the Whisky Bar - with around 300 whiskeys available. In the summer you can dine on the terrace, while the scrumptious traditional Dorset Afternoon Tea is served every day in the Drawing Room.

SPA & GYM

The Spa at the luxurious 5 star Summer Lodge Hotel was created to provide the ultimate destination to soothe, refresh and rejuvenate body and mind. A sanctuary from the pressures of everyday living, its dedicated aim is to purify and detoxify, promote wellbeing, and leave you feeling totally revitalized.  If you enjoy feeling fit then you may want to make use of the small air-conditioned gym which is equipped with a treadmill, exercise bike, stepping machine, water rower, cross-trainer and a variety of loose weights. After your workout, relax in the indoor heated pool and jacuzzi, or maybe take some time out in the sauna.
