Our main aim is to make this house a real home from home, ensuring guests have all they need to enjoy a comfortable and stress-free stay in Portsmouth. The kitchen is fully equipped so guests can cater for themselves and relax in the sitting room at the dining room table or on the sofa and watch freeview TV/DVD. The two upstairs bedrooms are light and airy with double beds and also a desk if you have to work or study during your visit. One bedroom overlooks the quiet street while the other overlooks the garden and surrounding gardens. The downstairs bedroom has a single bed and overlooks the street. The courtyard garden is a real suntrap in the summer where you can dine alfresco if you wish or just enjoy a cup of coffee. There is a direct private entrance from the street. Please note that the bathroom is downstairs and the stairs to the upstairs bedrooms, although short, are quite steep.

Whatever your reason for visiting Portsmouth, whether it be for work, study or pleasure or simply as a stepping stone to another place, this fully-furnished and well-equipped house offers you an excellent base for your stay. We really hope you enjoy your stay at the property. We will meet you personally at the house to make sure you know where everything is and answer any questions. We will be just a phone call away if you have any questions during your stay.

The property is located in an ideal location to access the many attractions of the historical, waterfront city of Portsmouth including the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard where you can visit the HMS Victory and HMS Warrior, Southsea Castle, the Mary Rose Museum and the D-Day museum which are all a short car or bus ride away.
