After a 5 hour journey from London on Bank holiday Saturday we were made most welcome by Tom. Our room was lovely and the breakfast the following morning excellent and set us up for the day ahead. Would thoroughly recommend Westwood House as a base for seeing the local area.

The shower is very powerful and the bathroom was ideal. Breakfast was freshly cooked with plenty of cereal,... More

Stairs only to the rooms, my room had a small sitting room with tea and coffee making facilities, including fresh milk in the small fridge. A Tv, small sofa, table and chair. The... More

There is little more to add to the previous reviews on TA. This is a very good guest house, nice rooms, comfortable beds, nice and warm (we needed that, it was freezing outside!). The breakfasts were excellent and it is very centrally located in Dorchester. The parking situation has already been mentioned and was not really a problem for us.... More
