Perfect 2-bedroom house, Albert cottage with WiFi in charming Southampton
Kick back and relax in this calm, stylish space with 2 bedrooms (one ensuite). Albert Cottage, built in the Victorian era, is located backing onto the River Itchen. Centrally positioned 5 minutes walk from St Denys train station, it is walking distance to Southampton city centre, St Mary’s sports stadium and the University of Southampton. This property is not on a through road, and there is always free parking on the road. It is very quiet place to stay - you can even fish from the garden. It has all modern conveniences, with great gastro pubs nearby. Bring a canoe and explore the river!
Riverside Park is walking distance, and is a beautiful place to visit. Southampton's cruise terminal is 10 minutes by taxi. The Mayflower theatre is 3 miles, and Southampton Airport 2.8 miles away. You can take a fast train to London in just over 1 hour. The New Forest, Salisbury, Bournemouth and Portsmouth are all just half an hour's drive.
