We recently stayed at Aquila Heights for a weekend. My parents also came with us and stayed in Room 1 on the ground floor. My father is in a wheelchair and the accomodation could not have been better equipped. Our room was Room 3, this is on the first floor and was excellent. Accomodation - Superb Cleanliness - Superb Hospitality... More

Went down to Dorchester to visit family with my Fiancee and booked into Aquila Heights for a weekend. My fiancee had never stayed in a B&B before, always a hotel, after this experience she wouldn't go back to a hotel. The room we stayed in was clean, warm, comfortable and cosy with a comfy double bed, and heat reflective blinds... More

We stayed in the Garden room, which in fact is a suite with a double bedroom and a sitting room. The sitting room also contained one single bed as our son was with us. The rooms were most comfortable, very clean and very well provisioned with toiletries, tea, coffee biscuits etc. The breakfasts were superb, fresh fruit salad, cereals and... More

We stayed 2 nights on our trip and could not fault it. Friendly, clean and the BEST SHOWER in England! Great room and only 10 minutes walk into the centre. Breakfast menu is huge with heaps of choices:) Value for money. Junction Hotel on High Great Western Road was a fav for evening meal.

I knew it would be a great guest house (having not used Trip Advisor) just from making the booking when Joan was so warm and friendly, explaining her security of information she holds etc. We arrived and were made welcome by being invited to make ourselves at home. Our room was Room 2, a twin room, with plenty of storage... More

The Best B & B I've ever stayed in. I do a lot of travelling and this was without doubt a benchmark B & B. It supplied everything I thought I needed and delighted by offering things I didn't know I wanted. Will definitely stay there again.

Spent a lovely weekend at Aquila Heights. Joan was most helpful and knowledgable about the area and the breakfasts are TERRIFIC. The B. & B. is a little gem. We will most definately make a return visit.
