I really liked my two nights spent here. The room had everything I needed and was very clean, comfy and cozy. Gary was lovely and made very nice breakfasts. I think it was great value for money and felt very welcoming. I will definitely be back next time I'm in Dorchester!

This Dorset B&B is just a 5-minute walk from Weymouth Train Station. Comfortable and clean with quality linens. Beds comfy and shower great.

Breakfast was amazing too. I wouldn’t hesitate to stay again and would highly recommend this beautiful bed and breakfast.

Set in Milton Abbas, within 16 km of Monkey World and 31 km of Corfe Castle, Woodland Views offers accommodation with a garden as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is around 32 km from Poole Harbour, 39 km from Bournemouth International Centre and 39 km from Sandbanks. The bed and breakfast also offers facilities for disabled guests. I loved staying at Woodland Views. Aliya is a delightful host and very welcoming. My bedroom was spacious and comfortable and it was great to have places to sit other than the bed. I particularly enjoyed the patio area which, as the property's name suggests, has views of the adjacent woodland; there is a short and picturesque walk through here to Milton Abbas village. The breakfast is prepared to order and I particularly enjoyed the variety of fresh fruit. It's in a very quiet location but ideally situated for getting around this part of Dorset. I definitely hope to return.
