  • The Beach at the end of the road - Garden apartment

    Just come home from a fantastic week's break at this apartment,i stayed with my family of 6 and it was very spacious, beautifully decorated and made even more special having the garden space. We've stayed at St helens before but on the second floor which is still just as lovely,but will be heading back next year for the garden apartment. Its in walking distance to the town, beach and local shops and restaurants. Highly recommended place to stay xx

  • Queensgate - Enjoy the sea from the sofa, 3 bed, 2 bath apartment with seaview

    I just don't know were to start when I say how much my family and I enjoyed out recent holiday at Southsea.
    The Queens Gate apartment is perfect in every way. From the spacious living room area with 3 couches, one that is directly in front of the large bay window. The views from the bay window are breath taking. There is so much to see from that window which has direct view of Southsea Common and the Sea.

    The 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms are great assets for families and couples.

    Jane is an amazing host. Nothing is a problem. As soon as you need her she will sort everything out.

    Would I recommend staying at Queens Gate........... that is a big definite YES! This is my 4th stay at Queens Gate now and I never get bored of staying there. Me and my family only returned yesterday and we are already looking at dates for next year.

    — Denise Kennedy , 19 Jul 2022
  • What a beautiful apartment. Everything we could need for a relaxed stay. Well equipped and spotlessly clean.
    Close enough to all the amenities with two good pubs at the end of the street - so no cooking for me.
    Stunning views of the ships coming and going by the window.

  • The beach at the end of the road - 3 bed apartment with sea glimpses

  • We have just returned from your beautiful apartment in Southsea. We rented flat 3 and two , both flats were beautifully furnished and had everything we could have wanted , a real home from home .
    The welcome basket was a lovely gesture , thank you .
    The flats are just a few mins walk from the seafront and close to amenities.
    We hope to return to Southsea and would happily stay here again .
    Man thanks for a lovely stay

    — June Islam - The beach at the end of the road, 16 May 2022
  • Stayed recently at Queensgate and found the accommodation exactly as described on the website.

    The accomodation is spacious light and airy and the views over the Solent are spectacular. the apartment is large and benefits from two bathrooms. The configuration of the 3 bedrooms suited us perfectly as a 3 generation family.

    it is very close to the bus stops and to the shopping centre in Southsea as well as to the attractions of Old Portsmouth.

    — Liz - Sea from the sofa, 20 Apr 2022
  • Love the location of this really spacious accommodation.

    Really well placed to enjoy the bars and restaurants in Palmerston Road as well as wonderful walks along the promenade. It was really useful to have a parking space.

    The apartment was very well furnished and kitted out and we had a very enjoyable stay.

    — Sally - Between the beach and the shops, 15 Apr 2022
  • We had a very enjoyable 2 month stay in the top floor 3 bed flat in St Helen's House Ja/Feb 2022. The flat was very well fitted out and had everything we needed. Jane was a very helpful and responsive host and looked after us very well. Any minor defects were fixed immediately. I was working from the flat during the day whilst Amy worked in Portsmouth, which worked out perfectly for us. The wifi was great and there were no distractons through the day. The parking space was very useful as parking in the area can be very limited and few other rentals offer this.
    The flat and location is also ideal for dogs, with long walks on the beach or on the large common area.
    Strongly recommend this accomodation and hope we will be back.

  • We stayed in St Helens Garden Flat from 15-18 December with our dog. What a gem of a place. Great location as centrally located and minutes from South Parade and the beach. Lovely furnishings and fittings, equipped to a high standard with everything you'd expect. The outside space would be lovely in the warmer months. Communication with Jane was smooth and efficient. I only have positive things to say! We hope to be back.

  • A truly fantastic flat close to the seaside. The space is truly stunning and the host had even provided a small Christmas tree and fresh flowers. This flat has everything you could ever want, highly recommended.

    — Peter, 08 Dec 2019
  • We have booked Jane's flat the last year and once again this year and we have had a fantastic stay in this lovely flat. Location is perfect. The flat is big enough to welcome a family. The seaview is relaxing and the kids loved watching ferries and ships through the bow-window. A few minutes walking from Southsea, Cascade and Pier. We also walked to Gunwharf quays. Kids friendly apartment. Jo and Jane were also perfect hosts. We'll come back!

    — Isabelle, 29 Oct 2019
  • Fantastic accommodation
    We have just spent a week in this property and I cannot rate it highly enough. It was spotlessly clean, and well maintained. There was everything you needed for your stay. It is in an excellent location well within easy walking distance of shops, museums, beach etc. There is a very good bus service about a minutes walk away which goes down to Historic Portsmouth / Gunwharf Quays. I would definitely stay here again.

    — Lisa A - See the Sea, 25 Aug 2015
