I stayed here for three nights with my sister and mother. We found Westcotes House an excellent and comfortable place to stay. A warm welcome from Graham, David and Ross set the bar high. The breakfast quality and choice was the best I have tasted at a B & B, and far better than many hotels. I would recommend this... More

Having stayed for three nights at Westcotes House, I would recommend it to anyone heading to Bournemouth. The location is amazing as it's really rare to find a Bed and Breakfast establishment directly on the seafront in this area and it is wonderful to look out from the hotel and have nothing but sea and the coast stretching for miles....

I stayed here last summer for 2 nights with my then boyfriend, we had such a fantastic stay, Ross and the guys are so so sweet, and incredibly helpful. You can tell they love what they do and it shows in every aspect of the house. I would absolutely recommend this delightful place to anyone. The morning view over the... More

Only stayed for one night but really enjoyed our stay at Westcotes House Ross and Graham were very helpful and friendly. The house is decorated to a high standard and the breakfast was excellent. Near to beach with off-road parking.

Thank you for leaving us such a nice review. Glad you enjoyed your stay and hope you'll be able to stay longer next time. Being right on the seafront does make a difference; we're probably the only remaining guest house in Southbourne with direct sea views. Fortunately we've got enough parking here for all our rooms which does make it... More

My husband and I have just arrived back home after a very pleasant stay at Westcotes. The hosts were really welcoming and friendly. House is stunning, beautiful decoration, very clean. We were in room 4, or the red room. Comfy double bed, shower room, TV and tea, coffee and water. Very close to the beach, opposite the house and then... More

We had a very successful stay at Westcotes House last year and therefore did not hesitate to book again this year. We were lucky enough to have Room 2 with its gorgeous views and bay window. And everything was just as we remembered from last year - friendly and welcoming hosts (thanks Ross and Graham), lovely breakfasts (and a pretty,... More

We stayed one night at Westcotes house and despite the driving rain had a fantastic time! The house is in a great location, a stones throw from the beach, and on the inside is both very well kept and very homey. With all the amenities you could ask for, an absolutely fantastic breakfast and the most welcoming owners we have... More

Me and a friend stayed here in February, but only just got around to writing a review. My friend was running behind and I was greeted by Ross who welcomed me in to the guesthouse and showed me to our room (room 5) which was clean, well presented and very comfortable.

Westcotes House is the perfect location for visiting Bournemouth and Southbourne beaches and unlike most guesthouses they were very welcoming to our dog Scooby! It was lovely to stay somewhere with the dog, and yet still have a lovely and stylish room, and not feel like we were in a "dog room". The hotel was faultlessly clean and our hosts... More
