Patrick's Plumbing and Heating

70 Clanfield, Sherborne DT9 6BE, UK

5.0 (22 reviews)

P: 07943 868726

Patrick did the installation of the heating and hot water systems in our new build home 10 years ago and has looked it ever since with annual servicing and any upgrade work we have requested such as water softeners. Super friendly, reliable and trustworthy gas and plumbing engineer.

I have used Patrick on a couple of projects so far and have always been pleased with the service provided. Patrick has installed both oil and gas boilers for me, as well as installing a hot water cylinder, radiators and associated plumbing works. I would happily recommend Patrick and will certainly be using his services again in the future.

Patrick was recommended to help us with a full bathroom refurbishment. It wasn't a straight forward job, stripping out the existing bathroom from an old and small house, sourcing the parts and getting it all installed in a short time frame. We had a great open and honest conversation about what was achievable. Patrick pulled together a very fair and clear quote and was able to complete the job on time and to a great standard. Communication was brilliant and Patrick coordinated the whole job really well. Patrick also sorted a very minor fault over 6 months down the line. Thank you Patrick, and very much recommend anyone looking for help!

Really excellent work with an eye for detail. Patrick fitted new boiler, tank, 15 radiators and replumbed the entire kitchen and couldn't be more pleased.

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!

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.

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.

Oh my! ♥ What a magical experience visiting The Clockspire was. Where do I begin to describe the care and detail oozing from both the staff and the food, it truly is clear to see, even the toilet hand towels were folded beautifully! We decided to opt for an expensive treat due to a special birthday, but the restaurant also offers a very affordable day menu, so I would recommend for both a stunning meal out and for celebrating occasions.

We had a thoroughly enjoyable and delicious dining experience at the Clockspire Restaurant this evening. Food was excellent along with the service. The old school building has been beautifully restored and creates a delightful surrounding and atmosphere, complimenting the whole experience. This has just become my favorite restaurant. We shall return.

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!

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

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. 😊

I had an exceptional experience today. Naomi and her wonderful assistant demonstrated a high level of professionalism and genuine care. Remarkably, at 43 years old, I even learned the proper technique for brushing my teeth.

Date of visit 15/11/24.( New patient) I was really very anxious as it was my first time for treatment with a new dentist. I needed not to have had such a sleepless night worrying! I feel very stupid now because I was looked after so well by my fabulous team Dr.Jessica Scott and nurse Ellie. They understood my nervousness and immediately reassured me that I was going to be in safe hands. The treatment I received was quick and completely painless. Ellie was really lovely and kept reassuring me as the treatment progressed which was greatly appreciated. I have to visit again for a couple more longer appointments to prepare to have a gold crown fitting and I promise not to be such a baby next time! Having had such a good experience on my first visit has absolutely reassured me that I’m in very experienced and safe gentle hands. So I’m looking forward to my next appointment! Please pass on my thanks to Jessica and Ellie.

I recommend the dentist Rishi Naraidoo.. he is a very good dentist.. he really knows what he is doing and the visit with him was a pleasure.. I almost fell asleep while he was fixing my teeth.. he is very friendly and understanding.. he explained everything very well, how the treatment would be carried out, paying attention to the smallest details... I highly recommend it, it's really worth it!!

As a new patient to the practice my first impression was relaxing with efficiency. From reception to medical staff the air is calm and reassuring. After my initial check up, I needed a filling which was so quick and totally painless. Highly recommended. 👍

Round Chimneys Farm, Cafe & Shop

Round Chimneys, Farm, Glanvilles Wootton, Sherborne DT9 5QQ, UK

4.9 (89 reviews)

P: 07450 876969

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.

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.

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!!

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.

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
