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

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.

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.

100% recommended for Invisalign treatment. Both my sister and I have had orthodontic treatment at dental on the banks and very happy indeed. What I feel really stands out is that post treatment they are still extremely helpful in any aftercare. Friendly reception team and clearly very experienced dental professionals. Thanks and keep up the great work 👍

Extremely friendly and welcoming. Dr Damon Taheri took time to ensure any questions I had were answered and provided a very clear explanation and idea of what the outcome will be like. A beautiful clinic in appearance and client experience.

Excellent experience from start to finish. I enquired about teeth whitening, my email was answered quickly and I easily booked in for a consultation. The process was explained clearly, scans done and I returned a week later for my fitting and instructions. I am absolutely delighted with the results - easy, painless and my teeth look fantastic! I've had so many compliments. I would highly recommend Dental on the Banks for teeth whitening - results and service excellent!

Excellent care and attention to detail. They are perfectionists and I couldn't be happier with my new straight teeth. I get so many compliments and feel more confident now. The after care and follow up advice is also very good. Every member from the reception team to the orthodontists have been outstanding. Kind and friendly and the clinic is very clean and modern. Thank you. I will be recommending them to friends and family

I recently engaged the services of Terry for our dental surgery, and I'm highly impressed with the exceptional job he did. His expertise in lighting was evident throughout the project. Terry is very meticulous. He ensures every step, from the initial assessment to the final installation, was executed with precision. The result not only met functional needs but also transformed our workspace into a cleaner and more organized environment with clutter free wiring. The chosen lighting was a highlight. He has excellent knowledge of lighting system which significantly enhanced the overall work area, and has created a more pleasant and efficient environment. In addition to his technical skills, he is very professional, ensuring effective communication and a clean work area. I highly recommend his services for top-notch electrical work.

Terry recently undertook the task of bringing power from our house to our external office/work space. He also wired it along with the installation of led ceiling lights and a number of sockets and switches. He also installed the associated earthing rods. In addition we asked for some help with regard to wiring our internet from the house to the new space. Terry was happy to carry out the additional work. At all times Terry was communicative, tidy and professional in the work he’s carried out for us. We were very happy with the service provided. Would use again and would happily recommend to others.

Having never needed an electrician in Dorset before, Terry was the first and only contact I needed to make. He completed a thorough survey of the work required and subsequently provided a quote which I was more than happy with. I did not feel I had to look elsewhere. The work was carried out to my complete satisfaction in a very tidy manner. I would have no hesitation in recommending and using his services again.

LED lighting design & installation in 4 rooms. Existing wiring faults identified and rectified. Terry is a very reliable, conscientious & professional electrical engineer. Highly recommended.

Terry did some work for us at our holiday cottage. We found him to be very accommodating and trustworthy, which was essential as he needed to be in the house alone. He also identified a fault on the electrical circuit he was originally working on and after being told that to find the fault could take anything from an hour to a day to find, we were worried about the bill we could potentially receive. The bill was very reasonable and this was another demonstration of how fair and trustworthy he is. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to others.

Plumber Manor Country House Hotel

Sturminster Newton, Dorset DT10 2AF, UK

4.8 (213 reviews)

P: 01258 472507

I have been all over the world and have stayed and dined at numerous hotels. Since 1991 I have stayed several times, every year, at Plumber Manor and I can in all honesty say that I have nowhere felt as comfortable and at home as in that wonderful little Country Hotel tucked away in lovely Dorset. Also the food and wine list are superb and the fact that Plumber Manor was elected best Hotel in Southern England in 2024 is totally justifiable.

We have stayed here three times since 1980. Still in the same expert ownership. Beautiful country manor house. Well maintained in a discreet style. Fabulous food, interesting wine list with a range of half bottles too. Good value for Londoners!!! Friendly relaxed service. Welcoming sitting room with open fire. Make a special journey to visit if you can.

We went to Plumber Manor for a birthday meal whilst visiting Dorset. The service, comfort, ambience and food were all exceptional. This is a fabulous hotel and restaurant with a relaxed and efficient style set in beautiful gardens. The menu offers something for every taste and palette, the waiting staff are efficient, unobtrusive and professional. We would definitely visit again and we thank you for an enjoyable and memorable evening. Lin and family.

We thoroughly enjoyed our one night at Plumber Manor. The staff were without exception helpful, friendly and efficient. We had a beautifully cooked dinner and the breakfast was first-rate. The hotel is in a quiet location and the grounds are kept very well with attractive topiary and well-planted borders. We would definitely return another time.

Visited today as the Westwood Cross Toby Carvery was very busy and we're so pleased that we did, marvelous two meat roast, turkey/beef, plenty of fresh vegetables, decent Yorkshire. The young staff team was very good and service was prompt. We will visit again and recommend it to everyone, we may not return to Toby for a while.

Absolutely delicious food. The service was great and the atmosphere was pleasant. The only downside was the flies (present because the doors were open as it was a warm day) - it can't really be helped but it detracted from the enjoyment of an otherwise excellent meal.

The food was amazing here with a good choice of tapas. There were a good variety of gluten free options on the menu. The service was a little slow, but they had a huge party of people to deal with and kept us informed. Lovely choice of cocktails and mocktails, too.

This was our third time eating here and once again it didn't disappoint. There were 4 of us and we shared a number of dishes, all of which were delicious. The restaurant was busy with a great atmosphere and the staff were so helpful and friendly. Our waitress was brilliant and very patient with us as we tried to decide what to order. The manager was also very friendly, chatting to everyone and making sure we were all enjoying our meal. We will definitely be back.

Recommended from a friend to carry out an electrical safety check on our new flat, the company were courteous, efficient, on time and corrected a few not very obvious out of regulation fitments. All carried out in the same visit and the certification followed quickly from the office. Highly recommended.

I rang this Company on Weds.27th March 24, due to having only 2 of 6 Halogen spotlights working in my kitchen for the past few months. All a bit dark! Coral assured me of having help quickly, with Matthew arriving promptly the next morning in absolutely dreadful weather. He checked the wiring, which was working and suggested changing to LED bulbs, giving me the option of staying with Halogen. I chose to change, and Matthew then offered to go and buy them. He was quite quick, and set about replacing the bulbs. I was amazed at his efficiency, as some of the fittings were tight. Once done, he offered to change the attic non-working bulb as well. This whole procedure was done without fuss or bother, and Matthew was polite, professional and personable throughout. My kitchen now resembles the Bahamas... and is amazing...Thank you so much for a super duper job and workman. M.H.W.

I had an issue with my electric sockets in my house which happened over night and I was having an issue to find the cause/source for the problem. After long day at work it was challenge to get some one to come around to fix. I "googled" found this SES LTD. When called spoken to Jonathan who patiently listened to my story and explanation of events and what I tried so far. He kindly gave me some further guidance and advice what else to try and after 2 more calls over the next 20 min we found the cause. Jonathan does not know me and I didn't know him, however he treated me like he is just a friend who would happily to help out when needed. He didn't even ask for money. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
