Close to the vast green expanse of Southsea Common, this one-bedroom flat is a lovely spot to base yourself for your time in Portsmouth. There's a generously sized living and dining room, with plenty of character thanks to the original features, such as the swan neck coving and a bay window that lets in plenty of natural light. Head through to the master bedroom, and you'll be greeted by a comfortable king-size bed and a large window overlooking the garden. Immediately next to this is the smaller second bedroom with a bunk bed perfect for children. The kitchen comes equipped with everything you might need to whip up heavenly homecooked meals. Portsmouth has played a prominent role in some critical events in British history. So while you're in the city, make sure to pay a visit to the Historic Dockyard and take in both HMS Victory and the Mary Rose Museum, approximately thirty minutes' walk. For something a little more modern, take in panoramic views from the Emirates Spinnaker Tower Sky Walk, which soars 170m above the Solent and is just over a mile away.
