Ben came to fit a bathroom extractor fan and I was particular in what I wanted (a high extraction rate, loft installed in-line fan, on a timer). I'm pleased the quote was competitive, the communication excellent, and the job was done to a very high, clean standard. My bathroom is now steam free. Ben has also secured a much bigger quote to fully re-wire an entire property for me.
Rating: 5 / 5
It was very well organised from start to finish with the installation of consumer units. Ben was very nice and proficient. I would definitely use Yeovil Electrics again and recommend to others.
Rating: 5 / 5
Ben and his staff are very friendly and helpful. They were quickly able to arrange a date to come and see what needed doing. Then I was given a wide range of dates for the work to be done, at my convenience. Ben arrived promptly and only took as long as he said he would to complete the work. He answered my questions, both in person and by email and cleaned up afterwards. We had four different lights that needed to be dealt with and now they all look lovely and work perfectly. I have already found them so useful. Would highly recommend Yeovil Electrics.

Ben did a first-class job for us, we would recommend him to everyone we know. Reliable, very professional and tidy.

Rating: 5 (37) Price Level:
I recently had an electrical issue at my home and reached out to Entrust Electrics for assistance. I couldn't have been more impressed with the promptness and professionalism of their service. From the moment I contacted them, they were incredibly responsive, they scheduled a visit at a time that suited me, and they arrived promptly, wasting no time in diagnosing and fixing the problem. They conducted themselves with the utmost courtesy and expertise, explaining the issue in simple terms and outlining the solution clearly. Overall, I cannot recommend Entrust Electrics highly enough. Thank you, for your outstanding service!

Very happy with the standard of work Chris carried out. We had a new fuse box put in, sockets installed and a fault with our shower isolator remedied; all done efficiently and very neatly. Chris was professional, honest and got on with the job at hand. Competitively priced and wouldn't hesitate to recommend or use again. Nice one!

Chris is very efficient, quickly understood the jobs that needed to be done and completed them excellently. I would definitely recommend him to other potential customers.
Rating: 5 / 5
We contacted Chris to install electrics and network cabling in our new office unit in Bristol. From the first meeting with Chris, all the way throughout the project, working with Chris was extremely collaborative and professional. Chris completed the work to a great level of quality, and was flexible when we had to make some minor design changes along the way. I would not hesitate to recommend Chris, and we will certainly contact Chris again for any future work.
Rating: 5 / 5
I cannot recommend Chris at Entrust enough. His knowledge is A1. His ideas and designs have the perfect balance to meet practical as well as aesthetic requirements. He is a very friendly and personable chap. He is very aware he is working in your home and we felt very comfortable leaving him to work independently and trusted him with keys to our property. His work standard is A1 as is his efficiency. His pricing matched his quotes and he went above and beyond in every way to make sure we were 100% happy with every aspect of his work. He was very tidy, always using dust sheets and vacuuming up after every visit. You wouldn't have known he'd even been here. We will never use anyone else. Do use Chris, you won't be disappointed.

Jewel of a coffee spot in Sherborne. My macchiato was brewed to perfection. Awesome atmosphere and vibe.
Rating: 5 / 5
The best coffee house in Sherborne….maybe the whole of Dorset. G and Alex are wonderful blokes who are chatty, friendly and really know their coffee. I’ve never had a bad cup and have been coming back for more for three years. The vibes are immaculate too and this cafe is dog and child friendly making it the perfect place to relax and catch up with friends or even make new ones. Highly recommend!

1:1 barista course - 10/10 I purchased an espresso machine and grinder a year ago (La Pavoni). After many inconsistent coffees ‘and getting to know my machine’ my wife arranged the barista course for my birthday. The course teaches you the basic art of how to make coffee and how to adjust the flavour. You would think a coffee shop teaching people how to make coffee is counterintuitive, but I think this is a true reflection of their cause - to educate and have everyone drinking great coffee! Thanks Alex. You have bettered our daily rituals! If you enjoy making coffee at home, I highly recommend booking in. D

Rating: 4.8 (254) Price Level:
I came across this restaurant by chance when in Sherborne. The food was absolutely delicious. I had a starter and main dish. The duck was superb - so tasty and delicious. The service was really good too. I will come back again with my husband next time. I haven't tasted such delicious food in a long time. 😊
Rating: 4 / 5
Decent lunch. I would have preferred a bit less of the “brulee” and a bit more crab meat, maybe with a bit of a citrus twist. We saved our bread and butter that came out at the start as it does need that. The meat (chicken and duck) were good quality but maybe lacked a bit of seasoning. Fries were tasty.

What a lovely surprise 30th meal for my partners birthday. Gabriela is such an amazing host, couldn’t thank her enough for all her help with organising. The food was outstanding! I had the goats cheese mousse to start and it’s the best starter I’ve ever had! Have been before and will definitely return. Great value for money and lovely/friendly staff. 10/10

Amazing little restaurant with great atmosphere and the most amazing food!

Fantastic meal - everything delicious but the highlights were a goats cheddar mousse, lamb with Jerusalem artichokes and a beetroot sticky toffee pudding. Lovely vibe - busy but you can hear each other speak, great art on the walls and friendly service. Wish I lived nearer for this to be my local!

Rob has done a number of awkward works for us over the last year. He's a great communicator, and went above and beyond to create solutions for some tricky issues with our G2 listed property, which others couldn't figure out. He's always on time, cleans up at end of day, professional, and checks with us if he's found a better, or better value, alternative for the work we had in mind. We cannot recommend him highly enough.

Lovely electricians, managed to squeeze me in last minute after I was let down by another local company. I needed the lights and the extractor fan in my new teeny downstairs toilet to be connected before building regs could be signed off, and it was done the very next day with no fuss. They also added new sockets to my utility room as I couldn't use the washing machine and dishwasher at the same time with the old ones that were already in place, as the lights all tripped. The guys were clean and tidied up after themselves. I wouldn't hesitate to call them again when the next stage of renovations start. Thanks

Absolutely fantastic company. The epitome of professionalism. Work is carried out safely and to a extremely high standard. Rob and his team are friendly, polite and tidy. Great service. Would highly recommend for all electrical requirements.

Really pleased with the work that RN Stephenson has done for us including board checks, new outdoor lights and sockets, new light fittings inside and a callout when our fusebox went one evening. Rob and his team are extremely professional and trustworthy and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them for any work. Already got my name on the list for solar panels! Thanks Rob.

A lovely laid back and helpful welcoming family that run the place. Thoroughly enjoyed staying there, stayed there with my family twice now and visited the cafe there once during the day. Ideal place for relaxation, scenery, and enjoying the cafe and seeing the farm animals. Highly recommend Edit. Clean and well equipped amenities too Thank you
Rating: 5 / 5
Enjoyed a relaxed family stay cation is both the houses, it was A-MAZE-ING❤️All I can describe it was like being in a film. As a massive animal lover myself, I got to meet and greet all of the animals, they were beautiful and also a big thank you to the farmers/owners who were lovely and walked us around the farm. The cottage is clean tidy and always a joy to be in. Most definitely cannot wait to be back for next Christmas!!

We booked a weekend here for 8 friends, who were planning on meeting, we all lived around the UK and one of us actually flew over from Sweden to visit, and I can happily say we were all blown away with how beautiful the place was. We stayed in the Round Chimney’s Farm House, with 5 bedrooms and 12 beds, This place was PERFECT for us. Little did we realise how fantastic our stay really would be. The online photo’s just don’t do it enough justice. Our arrival was early because we were so excited for our weekend to begin, in which Rachel welcomed us and showed us the on site Café & Shop whilst we waited, we enjoyed a pot of tea and appreciated the beautiful shop, selling cakes, lunch, and meat and cheese from the farm, as well as the stunning paintings and art for sale on the walls. We were then given access to the house which we must of ran around several times just to take in it’s beauty. Everything was clean, well-made with bedding, towels and throws if needed, the lighting and space was perfect and the gift of a late of flapjacks per person went down a treat. There was everything you needed and more, all dining needs plates, cups, mugs, cutlery you need not worry. We all had the chance to pet and was also offered an onsite tour of the farm with the animals, on the way in you can visit the Donkey’s and a friendly Goat, moving onto the cows who certainly know how to sound a friendly hello, moving onto the baby goats. We were lucky to find one of the cow had given birth whilst we visited, on site there are 3 dogs who roam the farm who we all instantly fell in love with and even invited them inside to grab plenty of cuddles and belly rubs! As our guests slowly arrived from travelling they each had the same reactions running from each floor oohing an aahing at the house. The games room was defintatley a big reason for choosing our booking, entertaining us all weekend with matches of pool and using the living room for movies in the evening. We made use of the outdoor fire pit in the evening and roasted marshmallows and made shmores. We were invited on the Saturday to a Pub Night the Farm was hosting to celebrate their 1 year anniversary of the Café & Shop with drinks and a local pizza van catering which is the only disappointment we had as we we’re told order would be ready at a certain time, and once ordering yes I know ALOT, but 8 pizza’s we were told he could only make 1, so we luckily found a takeaway open to deliver, which being away from town was hard to track any late food places, but was to NO fault of the farm itself. The owner was so friendly and welcoming, and honestly has such a warm presence and made us all feel at home, not one of us wanted to leave, and spent many hours continuously visiting the cows and goats, we did however on the Saturday spent the day together at Longleat Zoo and had a fantastic time, however the cows and goats were first on the agenda when returning to the farm that evening. Thank you very much for an amazing stay! The price was perfect for us, the stay and the beds.. oh gosh we all agreed it was the best nights sleep we’ve had with the most comfortable beds and bedding and the showers were heaven! I think we must of all showered a thousand times over! 5 STARS recommend anyone to visit and stay here, suitable for families and children too, though we were an ALL adult group, the games room had plenty of toys and books for children, TV’s all had Freeview and there was an Xbox 360 too with some games to play and able to play DVDs which we brought, also access to a travel cot, gates on the stairs and an ironing board, iron and hair dryer was available if needed.

Spent a long weekend here with my family celebrating a 50th birthday. Round Chimneys is a very well equipped, listed old period farmhouse situated on a working farm. Large bedrooms with really comfortable beds. warm central heating throughout with the added bonus of wood burners. The large kitchen is very well equipped with everything you could need. There are ample bathrooms situated over 3 levels with stairgates. There is a small games room with pool table and plenty of books, toys, games etc., free WiFi and the property is dog friendly. This house is hundreds of years old and furnished sympathetically. Don't expect the furnishings to be pristine, you could describe them as 'careworn' but I think it is in keeping with the style of this old building. There is plenty of parking close to the house which is set in stunning countryside. Owners are always on hand and are very friendly and welcoming. The small farmshop/cafe on site is worth a look. The lovely town of Sherborne is only a 15 minute drive away. I would definitely stay here again.

My family have stayed in The Farmhouse at Round Chimneys Farm several times now, it is amazing I can't recommend it highly enough, Rachel and her family are the best hosts, allowing my grandchildren to feed the lambs, collect the chicken eggs and have tractor rides! The Farmhouse is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, the house is spotless with beautiful white sheets and plenty of thick white towels, I have recommended many friends who have also been more than once.

We stopped off here for breakfast at the end of a weekend away as we’d heard from our hosts that they did good food and were dog friendly. The food was delicious and great value. The staff were really friendly and welcoming and we managed to pick up a couple of early Xmas presents for hampers as a bonus! Would highly recommend.

Margot has been running her cafe from this site about 8 years,so I have been many times in i think the last 7+ years... I live around 150 miles away,and hadn't been here since Christmas... So I got down about 06.30 this morning and had table booked for 09.30..... I can not fault this cafe,I tend to have the Spire Hill Grill and I have yet to have a bad bit of any meal. With the ever increase in cost of living,I was expecting it to be more expensive than Christmas 2022...but nope,same price,and I think it is amazing quality for a very reasonable price. I was with family that live in Dorset and visit this fantastic cafe often....in fact my sister was in the day before also. The staff are lovely...Margot (owner) is a true professional and has built her business up over the years,take look at the website,and the produce that have,home made jams etc etc,I understand they now have some of the produce selling in a local shop. The customers in the cafe are also friendly,and seem to know each other.... I did a review on TaT before,and I'm doing this update as and edit,my original is below. We had pot of tea and three coffees...the little milk bottles,the glass teapot are just examples of some of the things they do differently...and it all goes to show the love Margot has for food and service to her customers (friends) The head chef Eve (pink shorts ;) ) is also a little star,and has been with TaT from being tutored from as an apprentice to becoming head chef... And is a credit to Margot and to catering... We came away with a couple of pieces of home made cakes....and will enjoy later. I know before I arrive that the experience will be all I could reasonably expect,and could only ever leave a rate of 5 star.... Anything less...I'm my view is unjust. My original review below Brilliant cafe,I always try to visit when in area,it's a lovely place,great food,and staff are greatest

A wonderful find hidden away at Stalbridge Dorset we have a warm welcome and could sit outside or in the restaurant area, the menu had a good range of meals and the homemade cake where to die for. I am fussy about coffee this was good roosted by readscoffee.co.uk.

Proper pub in a beautiful village. Good choice of ales, excellent pub grub, and a really friendly welcome from staff and locals. The gardens are being substantially improved, as has been the parking.

Good old traditional English pub. Good hearty food. Cosy & welcoming. Just what I want when I visit the country side. One of those pubs you can just rock up to without having to be suited & booted. Wellies welcome. Glad the new owners didn't turn it into an expensive posh nosh Queens Arms.
