Bed and breakfast holiday rentals in Dorset

Very well welcomed by our hosts, before our visit and during it. Amazing value for money and a delicious, home-cooked breakfast before leaving! Lovely, tranquil location: perfect for what we needed before a family wedding locally. Thank you!

Lovely peaceful Location…stress free and Views are excellent. Lovely family farmhouse ….well equipped. Enjoyed donkeys and sheep close by. Would definitely recommend to friends. Enjoyable stay with grandkids and family.

Jane was extremely welcoming and pleasant. She was very attentive throughout the stay and always checked if everything was OK. The location was fantastic - just a few hundred metres from the cathedral and with the added bonus of parking very close to the cabin. The property is small as described but it's ideal for a short stay.

It was lovely staying at Jessica's. She made us feel comfortable and welcome. The room is wonderful with a stunning view of Bath, and waking up to it was a pleasure. Her kitchen and garden are lovely too. While having breakfast, you can take in a panoramic view of Bath. While the house is easily accessible, the location makes it quiet and peaceful. The bed was really comfy too and we slept really well. We had a really packed 2 days and walked about a lot, so getting to rest at such a lovely, welcoming space at the end of the day was brilliant. Jessica is very knowledgeable about Bath and gave great recommendations. Meeting her was as much a pleasure as the stay!

Fiona could not have been a more generous host. Her house is lovely, breakfast delicious, the bed comfy, the bath water hot, and she could not have done more for us. We were doing a ridiculous long-distance walk, and Fiona's hospitality made it possible. Would definitely recommend. 10/10

What can I say? From the moment I arrived, Naomi was warm and welcoming and made me feel completely at home. She was full of great recommendations for coffee shops and nearby restaurants (there are a number of great ones) and knowledgable about fun day trips and local must-sees. Along with her husband Dave and son Michael, Naomi made my stay a lovely and stress-free one and I would wholeheartedly recommend their home for a stay in Cardiff. Thank you so much, Naomi. You couldn't possibly have been a more gracious host. :)

Mike was a lovely host. Welcoming, warm and interesting. He communicated really well before and during my stay. The house and room was lovely, as was the beautiful cat Angel. I had a comfy couple of nights' sleep and had everything I needed. Mike was especially helpful for helping my friend when she broke down outside his house after dropping me off one night! He was incredibly helpful and generous and we are both so grateful for his help. Would love to stay again next time I'm in Frome :)

We had a lovely few days celebrating my 60th. Lovely place and beautiful surroundings. Would highly recommend.

The 3 weeks that I spent at Nina’s with Betsy, Minou and Suki as roommates were my most cherished weeks of 2025! Nina’s place is spotless, pretty, cosy, just everything to make you feel right at home. She’s a wonderful host, who became a friend. The city is the just spectacular and truly heals! My heart is heavy leaving this beautiful place, and my darling Betsy. Until next time!

Had a lovely time here, would definitely recommend. John was a great host, thanks very much.

Before arrival the host checked if we had any dietary needs to cater for. We were given more info to find the BnB; which helped! The host and dogs greeted us on arrival and we were shown to our room, en-suite and a shared fridge (fresh milk and cold water). The bedroom was clean, spacious and well lit. Amenities included a kettle, hot drink options, cups and a mosquito net over the bed; it was a hot weekend. There was also a booklet which gave us some background on our hosts, local map information, walking routes as well as a nice short cut to the local pub. The breakfast options were aplenty and it felt like everything was homemade. The host’s garden area is incredible; they keep bees, an enclosed vegetable patch and that’s all we could see in the front area! There was a lounge area and access to the rear garden for guests but admittedly we spent most of our time out exploring. Would highly recommend if you want a quiet weekend away or explore The New Forest.

Absolutely stunning place. Exactly like the pictures. Jackie and Steve are really friendly and hospitable. The breakfast spread was beautiful. I literally cannot fault anything. 100% recommend and would return.

Ideal for me as I was staying one night. Rachel made me feel very welcome and I found my stay very peaceful and relaxing. The room was very clean and tidy I would be happy to stay agin, thank you Rachel! Just a note:- the car park at the coop is free after 6pm.

This was our first stay at an Airbnb and it certainly set a high standard. We only stayed the one night for visiting Stonehenge but would gladly have stayed longer. The property was clean comfortable and had everything we needed. Would definitely use again if in the area.

lovely place to stay, Peter and Joanna were lovely hosts and have a wonderful home!

We had a wonderful time in Stuart and Jaynes place. They were both very discreet and always available to help. The rooms were very comfy, the place was spotless, breakfast was extensive. Stuart brought us into town and back twice, which was really above and beyond what we expected. Looking forward to welcoming them to france to return the hospitality!

Good value and interesting, friendly and helpful hosts. Thank you!

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay for the Race for the Sun Jurrassic coast event. Annas place was immaculately clean and stylishly decorated. The space was just what you need for a comforatable break. Anna provided a lovely continental breakfast and we enjoyed the sun trap in the garden for eating. Would definitely recommend.

We totally enjoyed our stay at Darren and Chi’s place. They are really a super host! Very responsive in communications, flexible in accommodating our check-in schedule, providing all useful information about Bournemouth city center as well as nearby places, and doing their best to make you feel like home! The morning breakfast prepared by Chi is sumptuous, and making our stay really unforgettable! It’s our first time visiting the Jurassic coast, and we were super lucky to find their room listing in Bournmouth where we make it as a base for our long weekend trip! For sure we would recommend their place to anyone who plan to visit Bournemouth and nearby towns and sights, and definitely we would love to come back again some time in the future!

Staying with Alison is just perfect and I really look forward now to my visits to Dorset and Somerset. The views are sensational and the facilities are perfect and Alison is such a wonderfully natural person to be around with - what more could you ask for really whether you are in from a working day or on holiday? Thank you again, Alison I have booked myself in already with you for my next trip to your beautiful county.

Lyn and John were fantastic hosts - being generous with lively conversation but also providing options for privacy as desired. I paid a reduced rate due to some regulars being out of town, but they are already providing an excellent value classic bed and breakfast service with homestay personal touches. Lyn offers a full cooked breakfast and cereals to all guests, but was happy to make adjustments to tastes and needs. John also makes a tasty coffee from the espresso machine. I would be glad to return if I am able to find a moment when they are not fully booked!

What a fantastic find - beautiful location, gorgeous house and garden and Abigail is such a wonderful, friendly, thoughtful and accomodating host. Even the many different birds make you feel welcome. You couldn't wish for more at this idyllic cottage. Highly recommended.

Avril is an excellent host. She was so kind that she collected me from the train station. Her house is beautiful, very homely (I love foxes too) and comfy. We had brilliant conversations and she gave me advice on where to go for food and day visits. I'll definitely stay here again when I visit the area again.

Thank you Clare for our lovely stay. We had 2 children that loved the pool in the sunshine. Kitchen had everything we needed as did the rest of the property. A lovely tranquil stay just what we needed! The only concern for other holiday makers would be the steps upto the mezzanine level. Was absolutely fine for us but if you are little unsteady or have younger kits it may be an item of concern. Our 11 and 9 year olds loved it. Thanks again Clare, lovely property in a great location. Perfect!!!
