If you’re searching for a welcoming home-from-home environment while on your break in Dorset, there are an exceptional selection of high quality B&Bs and Guest Houses that will more than meet your needs.

Stunning Locations

Dorset’s guest accommodation can be found in a number of wondrous locations; whether it’s a rural retreat, a town centre hideaway or a coastal escape, there are fantastic options for every budget.

Browse our list of Dorset guest accommodation below, or use the search facility on this page to search for visitor accommodation by type, area or facilities on offer. 

Escape to the country

Choose to stay in our lush countryside and enjoy a peaceful setting amidst gorgeous natural scenery. With amazing walks and outstanding nature on your doorstep, you’ll be able to relax and unwind, whilst benefitting from the hospitality and local knowledge of your hosts.

Tucked away in a small village roughly halfway between Bridport and Lyme Regis, we love the panoramic views of the Marshwood vale and locally sourced breakfast at Wisteria Cottage.

Enjoy a comfy stay in the aptly-named hamlet of Plush, where you’ll find a delightful thatched inn called the Brace of Pheasants. With tastefully furnished rooms and delicious locally sourced meals (plus cask ales and cider), it’s a quintessential Dorset countryside stay.

For spectacular views of iconic Corfe Castle and incredible coastal walks within easy reach, Kingston Country Courtyard offers en-suite B&B rooms in a converted farmhouse setting, complete with a large garden, plus bar and function room that even has a civil ceremony license.

Town centre treats

For an unrivalled selection of eateries, amenities, attractions and public transport connections, book a bed and breakfast in one of Dorset’s friendly towns.

Each of our towns offer something unique for visitors: interesting historical ties, thriving weekly farmers markets offering local produce, artisanal shops and galleries, together with many delightful cafés and restaurant to enjoy.

Our picks for town centre stays include the picturesque thatched guesthouse Kersbrook, with picturesque gardens and a superb view over Lyme Bay; the highly-rated Spurwing guesthouse in the pretty riverside town of Wareham; elegant Portman Lodge in the Georgian market town of Blandford Forum, and Westwood House located in the county town of Dorchester.

Seaside breaks

Staying in a B&B by the sea is a holiday tradition for many visitors to Dorset and our sandy beach resorts including Weymouth, Swanage, and Lyme Regis are as popular now as they’ve been for generations.

Swanage is a fantastic base for a bucket-and-spade holiday, close to iconic attractions such as Old Harry Rocks and Corfe Castle. There’s an splendid choice of B&B accommodation, with both Glenlee and Millbook B&Bs being solid choices that have many positive guest reviews.

Weymouth’s blue flag winning sandy beach and picturesque harbour is a firm favourite with holidaymakers. Located within easy reach of Dorset's top attractions and landmarks, there are also a host of activities on offer nearby, including water sports, rock climbing, fishing and scuba diving. Again, there are no shortage of superb B&B accommodation, including the Harbour Lights and Eastney guest houses.

Boutique B&Bs

A number of Dorset B&B’s have created chic rooms with the kind of luxurious touches that you would expect to find in a boutique hotel, including an exceptional locally sourced breakfast and outstanding hospitality. Lyme Regis leads the way with the multi award winning Dorset House while Weymouth’s Gloucester House combines a stylish interior with captivating seafront views across the bay.
