Overview
Description
A short walk from Dorset’s Jurassic coastline you will find Upper Westfield, a first floor self-catering apartment in the picturesque village of Puncknowle. It is the only holiday let in our home (we live on the other side of the house). Having your own private entrance gives guests the independence to come and go as you please with the added comfort of having us nearby should you have any questions on the area’s many attractions and seasonal events.There is lots of information in the apartment regarding places to visit. Some of our past guests’ favourites include: Abbotsbury Subtropical Gardens, Abbotsbury Swannery, Hive beach, Weymouth beach, Lulworth Cove, Monkey World, Symondsbury Cafe with Colmers Hill and nearby mysterious sunken lanes, St Catherine’s Chapel, and Weymouth Oceanarium.
The accommodation comprises of:
A large open plan living area for relaxing, dining and cooking, ideal for being together while performing different tasks. Take in the beautiful countryside views across the valley from the Juliette balcony.
There is a wide selection of DVDs, puzzles, books, board games for all ages.
There is a T.V. with built-in DVD player and Google Chromecast and a Bluetooth player.
The kitchen has an electric hob and oven, microwave, toaster, kettle, cafetière, fridge, freezer and is well equipped with utensils and crockery.
The double bedroom has the bathroom next door.
The twin bedroom has its own en-suite shower room.
Both the bathroom and the ensuite shower room have wall mirrors with mood lighting. There is a large walk-in power shower in the ensuite.
We offer an option of having access to a third bedroom (single bed) with use of a sauna. This room is also an ideal space to be used as a workstation as it has a desk and is separate from the main apartment area. This is offered at an additional £30 per night.
There is plenty of parking available in our front driveway and there is an EV charger.
We welcome one well-behaved small dog, by prior consent, for an additional £10 per stay.
You are welcome to use the front garden and there is a separate section of the rear garden for your sole use, where there is a table with umbrella and chairs. Through the wooden gate leads you into the little orchard where there is more seating and a Buddha among the mature damson, pear and apple trees. We have a further two fields at the bottom of the garden where sometimes the local farmer puts his sheep to graze.
Included is a family pass (2 adults, 2 children) to the local animal park which also has an indoor play area. This is a 5 minute drive away.
We provide a generous welcome pack of provisions to get you settled (which can be adapted to meet any allergy requirements).
We have a 3 night minimum booking policy.
We also provide towels, a hairdryer, toilet paper, kitchen roll, tissues, washing up liquid, and hand wash.
The thatched village pub, The Crown, is a 5 minute stroll down the lane.
We look forward to welcoming you to Upper Westfield.

Leave ReviewSimply wonderful!
By Amy Franklin on 23-Aug-2025Where can we start describing our experience at Upper Westfield? From the very beginning it was easy; the communication from Sabina & Ray was brilliant, directions easy to follow & they were accommodating to everything we needed to complete our stay. The apartment is completely equipped with everything you could need for your stay, and there were even small touches for our family which made our little ones included & very happy. (They really do think of everything!) The location itself is perfect for exploring the South coast and we had days out to Lyme Regis, Weymouth, Charmouth Beach for fossil hunting, Monkey World, Wool for magnet fishing, and Durdle Door. There isn’t anything we could suggest to improve the apartment whatsoever, we highly recommend this place to stay!! It’s brilliant value for money too which is an added bonus at the moment!
Perfect for the family and the dog.
By Davis Family on 15-Aug-2025From the very first correspondence to our arrival, the communication and information we received were excellent. The thoughtful welcome pack instantly took the pressure off settling in, and the delicious cake made our arrival feel extra special. We loved the flat — it had everything we needed, plus the added bonus of onsite charging. Luna was in her element, racing around the Orchard in joyful zoomies. It was such a relief to have a secure space for her to play while we relaxed. Every detail was so well thought out, making our stay comfortable, stress‑free, and memorable. We can’t wait to plan a return
Fabulous stay
By Diane Read on 11-May-2025Sabina & Ray such wonderful hosts, the apartment was great, clean and very cosy., well equipped too. Beautiful views from the lounge overlooking the lovely countryside. Myself and my sister would definitely stay there again. Thank you Sabina & Ray.
Lovely accommodation and great hosts
By Alison on 11-Sep-2024Firstly, Sabina and Ray were really friendly, welcoming, thoughtful and generous hosts. The property was in a great location in a pretty village with wonderful views across the valley. We had everything we needed for a short break, space to spread out, plenty of hot water, a well equipped kitchen and warm and comfy beds. We could not have asked for more. Will happily recommend to friends and family and will book again next time we visit Dorset.
Absolute lovely
By Sue & Sophie dog on 04-Sep-2024Stayed a few days with my dog, we both enjoyed our stay, the hosts could not have done more to make us welcome. The apartment has everything you could possibly need to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Fabulous views from windows across Bride valley, perfectly located for visiting attractions along Jurassic coast. Sabina and Ray were the perfect hosts - highly recommend this accommodation for both humans and canines!
Three days that brightened up November
By Sue Palmer on 10-Nov-2023The thoughtful and generous hosts Sabina and Ray have spared nothing to make their guests’ stay comfortable and enjoyable. They are animal lovers and extend the same treatment to canine guests. The attention to detail ( the little touches eg extra loo rolls, the amazing welcome pack even binoculars to study the lovely view from the Juliet balcony) are what raises this several notches above other places we have stayed.. It was really clean, the beds comfortable we could go on..........but try it for yourself; you will not be disappointed.
