David
Difficult property to review, seems to have all you could need in the kitchen, we donât cook in while away but seemed well stocked. The sofa and the beds were clean and comfortable. This property needs better cleaning, there is no attention to detail, especially at lower levels around the skirting and walls.The windows were unloved both the frames and glass need a proper clean and general maintenance. The patio door, the first thing you see as you walk into the lounge was both difficult to open and close with the glass desperately needing cleaning. The biggest drawback with the property is the loud and constant traffic noise, making sitting in the pleasant garden unenjoyable. The traffic noise is constant and not limited to the rush hour. This should be noted in the listing. As a base for sightseeing this property is fine, for a relaxing stay not so. There are 2 excellent pubs within easy walking distance.

It was within a two minute walk to the waterfront and the Royal Oak pub. There is also easy access to Portsmouth and surrounding areas. We had a very enjoyable stay.

The location was perfect for walks round the harbour and a short drive to shops. Generous supplies in the house. Friendly neighbours. High standard of accommodation. We really enjoyed our stay.
