The Westby Guest House Information

Description

The Westby Guest house provides a quiet, relaxed, clean and spacious base for guests who value a good nights sleep, green ethics and thoughtful great service! All our headline rates are inclusive of breakfast. We are consistently highly rated online - TripAdvisor Top 7/140 hotels for the last 3 years and Booking.com 9.1 and above for the last 7 years. All our comfortable Ensuite bedrooms are modern and bright with free WIFI. Oven cooked breakfasts are served in an airy dining room - we cater for vegan and gluten free dietary requirements, using good quality responsibly sourced food ingredients. We use environmentally friendly cleaning products, energy is supplied by Ecotricity and we promote all waste recycling. The fantastic sandy 7 mile beach is just a 5 minute stroll away from us, where you will find Boscombe Pier - with SUP, surfing, volleyball and several bars and restaurants right on the seafront. The promenade connects the whole bay to busier Bournemouth town and beyond, perfect for a stroll, run, cycle or e-scooter rental. Close to us are many independent eclectic shops, bars and cafes. A short distance away lies the start of 95 miles of Jurassic Coast - the UK's only natural UNESCO World Heritage site - including some of these sites - Isle of Purbeck/Durdle Door/Lulworth Cove/Harrys Rocks/Corfe Castle/Swanage; then we have the stunning New Forest National Park too, for wonderful scenic walks. *Enquiries* Larger groups can take sole use of the guest house - a perfect base for family and friend gatherings of up to 12 people. Room only and longer term rates available. First night only payments also possible. *Cancellation Terms* Provide evidence of Covid infection for 100% refund. Otherwise, if we can resell your room, you will receive a refund up to a maximum of the full amount, less the first nights cost, as we charge this on all bookings. Cancellations less than 2 weeks before arrival will be the full charge if no nights resold as above.

My family have lived here for over 16 years - having travelled the world. We are very happy to live here for such a long period, because there is so much to offer everyone. The house is lovely and modernised to a high standard, situated a few minutes walk from a 7 mile golden sandy beach - often voted the best in the UK. Then there is the rest of the beautiful Jurassic Coast to explore and inland lies the New Forest National Park which is amazing too. We believe in minimising the environmental impact of our guest house, so make every effort to do the right thing and encourage guests to do so too! We strive to make you feel like you are staying with friends and we are keen to help you enjoy your time spent with us. We look forward to welcoming you to our home and sharing our knowledge of the surrounding area.
