We only stayed a night here but it was a very nice little hotel (and I would say it was a hotel rather than a guest house). The room had lovely décor, gorgeous pillows and bedding and a nice little hospitality tray including fresh milk in the fridge. The bathroom was nicely fitted with a big double shower that worked...

This was a perfect choice for an overnight stay. Good location and the street parking, which has been referred to in a number of other reviews, was not a problem. In fact, arriving at 6pm (when parking charges ceased for the day), we were able to park right opposite and also feed the meter with an hour's worth to cover... More

We stayed at Westwood house one night very recently. The room was very nice, even if the bed was far too soft for my back (we usually sleep on a japanese futon). The couple running the house were both very kind and fiendly. The breakfast was excellent, and is served in a very lovely veranda. I particularly liked the muesli... More

We recently stayed at the Westwood House Guest House for two nights, to attend a friends wedding. The welcome was warm and the basement room was just lovely. It had everything we needed and more, including a firdge with fresh milk (perfect for a pregnant ladies chocolate stash also). The bed was extremely comfortable and the sheets felt luxurious. In...

Top notch all round. Spotlessly clean, great location, great service from the owner. Loved the breakfast - all options and tastes covered from cereals, to vegetarian, to black pudding lovers. The bed in the room has to be tried to be believed - I took a photo of the manufacturers label, and will be buying one of these for myself... More

We stayed here the night before a football tournament in Dorchester. There were two adults and 3 children and we stayed in the family room which was perfect. We had a early start the next morning and a earlier than normal breakfast was provided which was very nice. The carpark was only a couple of minute walk away and was... More

There is not a huge choice of hotels in Dorchester so we didn't really have much choice where to stay, do our expectations were not great..However we were extremely happy to end up here and it's almost impossible to fault them in any way. Fantasticly friendly welcome when we arrived, lovely big clean room, excellent choice of cooked breakfasts, and... More

A friend and I stayed at Westwood for 3 nights and we found our room very comfortable, clean and quiet (although it was facing the street). We had a shower (not a bath) and this worked really well as it was quite powerful. The milk in the room's mini-fridge was fresh and we had the use of a hairdryer, which... More

I cannot find one single thing to fault Westwood House Guest House on! We had a lovely warm welcome with Tom carrying up our case. The rooms were beautifully decorated and furnished and the bathroom with separate shower cubicle AND bath and big fluffy towels was lovely. Lots of nice little touches like the chilled milk in the fridge and... More
