Lovely Guest House
Smooth check-in and very friendly. Room was perfect for us with a great power shower. Breakfast superb, too. Lovely place, close enough to town but also far enough away from it. Many thanks

Navy Reunion weekend
Great location for a stay in Southsea and Portsmouth. I was here for a Portsmouth Field Gun Reunion and it was handily located to venues in Southsea and close to bus routes to Portsmouth city. Quiet street.

Good place
Host was brilliant, breakfast was lovely, hotel was spotless. Only let down was a slightly noisy bed that was a little soft for me. Hotel was also in a superb location

Stayed for one night by myself and if I need another B&B in the area in the future I will gladly return.
Staff were very friendly, explained everything i needed to know clearly upon arrival.
Plenty of on-street parking just outside which is free to use with the permits provided by the house.
The room was perfect for what I needed, comfy, quiet and easy to come and go as I pleased.
The location is great for walking to the beach, nearby parks and Albert Road with plenty of dinner and evening options.
Breakfast was included and was very nice with cereals, fruit and a full english.
Will be recommending to friends and family.
