Westwood House is a real gem! Such a warm welcome from Karl, felt at home immediately. It's really central and my room was fantastic, with a little area to do my work which was separate to the sleeping area. Really comfortable bed with good linen and all spotlessly clean. Breakfast was just amazing. Huge choice and everything I tried was plentiful, of the best quality and beautifully cooked. I was sad to leave and would love to go back.

We were in Dorchester for two days to explore Thomas Hardy country. Westwood Guest House was an excellent small inn that fit our needs perfectly. We especially liked the excellent breakfasts at the inn and the friendliness of Tom the proprietor.

Westwood House is on the High Street in Dorchester, ideally located for everything in the town. We were met by the owner Karl on arrival and offered an upgrade and given the suite on the top floor. Karl and Jocelyn are very friendly and happy to offer suggestions for restaurants and place's to visit in the area. Our room was very clean and comfortable and seemed to be newly decorated. The breakfasts are great, lovely local produce served by the hosts in a large, bright conservatory. We would happily return.

Great, cozy place in Dorchestet. Good for vegans!
The couple that runs the place are the nicest people! Were fun talking to over breakfast, and took really good care of me as a vegan. Room was great, very specious and feels like home. Good bed, big closet, nice shower, well-equipped bathroom, well-stocked hot drink station. Place is within a walking distance of all main attractions and train stations. Would stay again!
