Situated in Littlebredy, Top Parts Bed & Breakfast offers a garden. Each room is fitted with a terrace with views of the garden.

The units at the bed and breakfast are fitted with a seating area. All units will provide guests with a wardrobe and a kettle.

Jasper and his family were delightful. We are so glad we picked Top Parts. We were on a long road trip and asked the kids their favorite part of being in southern England and they both exclaimed “Jasper’s!” Quiet, beautiful location was a welcome respite after being in a bustling city. The area is lush and verdant, with the smell of the countryside, and everything you need is close by— but not too close. Gorgeous walks and delicious breakfasts made be the one and only Jasper. If we are ever in Dorset, we will definitely return here.

We loved that it had everything we needed- home from home. The host had thought about everything! It was in the perfect location for everything we wanted to do over our four day stay. Parking was never a problem and the street was very quiet which was lovely. The host was very responsive when I messaged, which was reassuring. Thank you for a lovely stay :)

The lodge offers a seating area with a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with free toiletries and shower. A fridge, a microwave and toaster are also offered in the kitchen, as well as a kettle.

Higher Moor Farm offers a children's playground.

I don't know where to start, it was just such a peaceful cute place to stay!! The pods were over at the side away from the caravans and people camping in their tents. The pods were tiny but surprisingly enough room for a comfortable stay. The pull out bed was so comfortable and did not feel like a pull out bed at all. The pod had a kitchen area with microwave oven, grill, hob, fridge, kettle and toaster and just enough cutlery for the two of you. There was a small TV that had the channels you needed or we brought a firestick to watch more. The campsite was central and was a really easy drive to Weymouth seafront and only half hour away from anywhere else. Staff were really friendly as well in the farm shop. You also had your own parking space directly next to the pod.

Absolutely stunning! The accommodation was pristine! The towels and bedding were amazing! Such high quality laundry. The location was beautiful and extremely private. If you enjoy rural then this is the place! Pleasantly surprised by its sheer beauty! The staff are amazing, so friendly and smiling at all times. Couldn’t fault our stay at all and highly recommend. Food is only served until 4pm however we ate at the club house restaurant which is only a 4 minute drive away and literally on the beach! Thank you for a wonderful experience we will definitely be booking again.

    Fantastic little pub and rooms….. Sunday roast was lovely! Staff were very friendly and helpful. Upon arrival there was a live band playing in the garden which was great, very entertaining and family friendly. Our family room was very clean and comfortable - had everything we needed. Breakfast is in the farm cafe (ducks) just up the road - food was amazing - we all had a fantastic breakfast before heading off to Cornwall. I would highly recommend this pub/hotel.

    The hotel is in a beautiful location, not far from Weymouth (15 minute drive). Our room was clean and welcoming, beds comfortable. Breakfast was nice. Husband enjoyed the full English, myself and the children had granola, pancakes and porridge. All topped with honey and fresh fruits. Check in and out was simple.

    This was a wonderful find. We booked a family room, it was spacious with a double and 2 singles. The room had a small but modern bathroom with lovely lighting. The beer garden and restaraunt were great especially on a sunny afternoon. The breakfast provided from a nearby farm house was fabulous. I would highly recommend staying here.

    The room was immaculate I don’t think I have ever stayed anywhere that was so clean. The size of the room was good and had good facilities. Slept like a baby. Loved the breakfast next door at the farm cafe it was delicious

    We stayed in the Jurassic Room - for a family room, it was reasonably large, comfortable and felt quite newly decorated. Better than accommodation at most pubs. Breakfast at the Cafe (2 minute walk away) was very good. Portesham itself is an attractive location and it suited us very well: a straightfoward 15-20-minute drive to Weymouth and 5 minutes from Abbotsbury.
