    We booked an overnight stay as we were going on a cruise the next day and it was very convenient for the cruise terminal (about 20 minutes drive - and that was in heavy traffic). There are only 2 rooms with an allocated parking space for each (although a little tight for space - might be a problem if one car was oversized). Lovely hosts, spotlessly clean and comfortable rooms and a good breakfast. We would recommend this guest house.

    Simon was a great host, especially in the bar. Just a small pub with about 6 rooms I think, shared bathroom and I think meals are limited if there are few guests. However, small grocery next door,got a pie and warmed it up in the oven in a good sized kitchen

    I had one day’s layover in Southhampton between two cruises. Joe the host of this home stay has been such a great host. He was genuinely helpful not only with answering my questions but provided generous assistance so that my lay over was as smooth and worry-free as could be. Next time I pass through Southampton on cruises, I will make a point of booking into Joe’s place.
