Vacation rentals with breakfast in Dorset

We had the most amazing holiday. Angus and Libby are fantastic hosts who were super friendly and helpful, the venue was bigger than we were expecting and we spent Saturday walking to The Pythouse and back (one hour each way). This was a super AirBnB find, the perfect long weekend.

This house provided the perfect base for our trip. It's full of character and offers plenty of space to relax. What truly stood out was the unbeatable location – everything we wanted to see and do was within easy reach, and the vibrant atmosphere of nearby restaurants and bars was a real treat. The dartboard was a fun extra touch! The host was also exceptional, always quick to respond and incredibly helpful. We had a fantastic stay!

Jane’s attention to detail shows throughout the cottage. The bed and duvet so comfortable. It was refreshing that there weren’t pages and pages of instructions to read, and even had a cafetière and good coffee

We couldn’t have been made more welcome by Patricia to her warm and cosy accommodation. A late arrival from the ferry was no trouble and the provisions left for us were much appreciated. We only stayed one night but felt right at home and would highly recommend it.

This was easily the best Airbnb experience we've ever had. Harriet and Steve were just wonderful, warm and supporting. They were so great with our dog (who wouldn't want to leave on our last day) , left loads of goodies for us in the annex including fresh farm eggs from a neighbouring farm and even invited us to use their garden for breakfast. On our last night, we sat at the fire together, just chatting and enjoying each other's company. I couldn't recommend the place more highly - they were the most proactive in anticipating our needs and ridiculously generous. We will definitely be back!

Wow! What can I say!!! Let’s start with my dad always has a negative thing to say and he LOVED this place! My kids had their own room and my daughter loved the dining room with the books and the door to make it private! I loved the home aspect of it. We have been traveling now for a few years and this really felt like somewhere we could stay for more than a week. The eggs bread milk and cider where such a bonus that made our arrival less stressful as we have a toddler. I saw the baby gates and baby items. Such a pro if traveling with littles. I wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy the fire pit and game room. My daughter and dad woke up early just to play ping-pong before we left. Thank you again Mary & Sophie. Next time we come to England we will be coming back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Marian and Terry are really interesting hosts and we had a fascinating chat at Sunday breakfast about their own travels and their hosting experiences. Although it is a shared bathroom I barely saw the other guest and there were no awkward ques for the loo! Marian & Terry are happy for guests to get on with their own thing but also happy to help should you need them to. They were really friendly and communicated great throughout. I accidentally left my phone charger behind and Marian kindly posted it back to me - thank you Marian and Terry! 🙂

Great stay! Right by the beach and beautiful house with high quality finishes!

This studio apartment was perfect for our mini break in Poole. Barrie communicated well throughout the whole process. The photos demonstrated clearly what to expect; a lovely self contained studio apartment with everything we would need for our stay. Little touches helped make it feel home from home. My girls have both asked when we can come and stay there again. Highly recommended. Thank you

We had a great stay at Pam's place! It was comfortable, spotlessly clean, in a great location for exploring the local area and very private. The enclosed garden was great - especially as we were travelling with our two dogs - and the welcome pack was indeed very welcome. There was so much to see and do nearby, we struggled to fit it all in on this visit so we'll have to come back! Thank you for having us, Pam :)

We all enjoyed staying at Jason’s apartment and will definitely recommend anyone to stay here. Thank you

Fresh flowers and welcome pack on arrival were a lovely start to a very comfortable and peaceful 6 night break. The apartment had everything I needed and the spacious bedroom (very quiet), comfortable bed and cosy lounge with log burner made me feel at home from the moment I arrived. Beth and Annie were great hosts - very responsive and friendly. Thank you for such an enjoyable stay.

Thanks for everything. It felt like we were on holiday from the moment we arrived. The welcome pack was greatly appreciated. Thanks for everything. Regards The Bluenose.

So happy I found Jo and her beautiful accommodation. My dog and I felt so welcomed and at home. Just beautiful garden and property. very peaceful surrounds full of birds and nature. We’ll definitely be returning .

Ultra quirky little hideaway. Lots of little oddities that you keep on finding. Very compact but everything you need (don’t expect ultra modern. It would be so wrong in this flat, so no microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher etc but that was just fine by me). The bed was ultra comfortable. Everything about this flat makes you feel you have ‘come home’. Absolute gem of a balcony overlooking the sea (we spent many happy moments watching drivers trying to find parking spaces smug in the knowledge that we had a private bay) Lucky enough to be there during this years heat wave and so pleasant just sitting watching the world go by. A massive plus is that the balcony is not overlooked by anyone. The Sonos system was perfect. Didn’t even turn tv/Netflix on. No need with the view you get. It is up some quite narrow stairs so may not suit the elderly (we are in our 60’s and I problems at all.😄). So it’s a 10 from us!

Mary’s Annexe was perfect for our brief stay for a local wedding! The place was spotless and had everything we could need. Mary left us thoughtful instructions and was the perfect host! I’d recommend to anyone!

Lovely stay at Anna’s. The accommodation was exactly how described. Very clean & modern. The breakfast basket was an added bonus as I didn’t read that when booked. The outside area is also lovely. We will be booking again!

We really loved staying here - our getaways with a toddler + 2 dogs can be stressful, but this was such a great place to stay that it removed all stress. The location was peaceful and quiet, the village itself was small and walkable for the local pub and playground for our daughter. It was easy to drive to local tourist spots and all the roads were fine. The accommodation itself was comfortable and clean and had all we needed. Can’t thank our hosts enough for such a pleasant stay.

David and Paul are clearly experienced hosts. Very nice, open (and funny) and super helpful. We warmly recommend this airbnb. If we ever do anything in the neighborhood, we'd love to come and enjoy the delicious breakfast again!

Lovely host and very accommodating. Ideal location and very peaceful. Comfortable bed.

Perfect location in beautiful surroundings. Far enough from the crowds but close enough to all the nearby tourist locations, villages, pubs and beaches. Cannot fault anything. The accommodation was very cosy and Maria is a perfect host. We'll definitely be back.

I loved staying here. I felt right at home. A lovely place to stay with generous and lovely hosts. Breakfast is particularly good. There is so much to do in the area I could have stayed longer!

Very nice room. I felt right at home. The house was very clean and cosy. Martin is very nice and helpful. I enjoyed the 6 weeks with him!

Beautiful location, warm welcome. The breakfast was delicious. We also went for the raclette experience in the evening which was a great success (including Joey's tasty dessert). Peter is very attentive, we had everything we needed in thar lovely base to explore the Isle of Purbeck.
