With a fantastic location and nautical interior, this Southsea cottage is a great choice for your coastal getaway. Fancy a beach day? You’re just a ten-minute walk away. You’ll also find pubs, shops, and restaurants within walking distance. The home was recently renovated but it was built in 1850 with its original staircase still intact – expect steep, narrow steps and a tight turn on the staircase. We think all six guests can stay here comfortably, although bear in mind that the third bedroom is a bit of a squeeze. And it’s worth noting that the main bathroom is on the ground floor and all three bedrooms are upstairs.

Home truths
Well-behaved pets are welcome to join you during your stay.
Your host provides a free parking permit for one vehicle. Parking is available on the street and on nearby streets.

About Portsmouth
Forget what you think you know about the navy – a maritime masterclass waits for you in Pompey. One of the UK’s oldest seaside destinations (and the country’s only island city), Portsmouth was once the world’s greatest naval port. So, unsurprisingly, the big draw here is the nautical history. The city’s armada lies at the Portsmouth Historic Dockyard – HMS Victory (1759-1765), HMS Warrior (1860) and the Mary Rose (Henry...
