Sep 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely bank holiday week in Portsmouth Had a lovely stay in this property. Had to book it quite last minute and we were concerned it might not be big enough but it was great. Location also good - you can walk to the beach/seafront from here, and get a bus to the dockyard area. Communication with the owners was excellent - they were very responsive! All in all, had 5 days of sun so couldn't ask for more!! ##### Joanne F. Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Scott C.

Location did exactly what we thought it would provide. If it’s the winter and you run cold bring a throw or blanket would be the only suggestion ##### Scott C.
