Neighbours
All our properties are located within residential areas so we do have neighbours whom we need to consider. If you feel you could comfortably monitor noise levels (in particular out in the gardens and outside areas into the evenings) then we would love to have you stay and have had countless guests who have had a great time with us at our properties. If however you feel that it would not be possible to monitor noise levels, then we would have to recommend you consider something more rural, without neighbours.

I had the pleasure of staying at The Cabin whilst on business in Portsmouth
The hosts were such lovely welcoming people who couldn't do enough to make my stay comfortable and enjoyable. The Cabin itself is fitted to a very high standard with everything you need whilst away from home is provided. It's a lovely neighbourhood and you will have a restful and peaceful stay. I would definitely stay here again and want to thank Chris and Anna for making my short stay a 5 star experience. The Cabin is simply fantastic.

The Cabin is so cosy and we really felt like we were on holiday.
We had an amazing stay here. We were greeted by our host Chris, who was really friendly and helpful. The cabin is truly gorgeous and spacious, the decking is a lovely sun trap, we had everything we needed already there for us, including a welcome chocolate cake! The hot tub was ready and waiting so we could get straight in (which we totally did and then opened the pink fizz to mark the start of our girlie holiday.) The beach is just down the road and there are plenty of restaurants that deliver to the property. We didn’t venture out as I was recuperating with long Covid but we had an amazing, relaxing time just being in the cabin. There is also lots to do if you do want to venture out so we will definitely do that when we return for another stay! Chris was just a text away if we needed anything and was always willing to help. We totally recommend this place and can’t wait to stay again Thank you so much for having us

Lovely Little Cabin
Lovely little cabin in owners back garden (separated by fence). Self contained with everything we needed, including a fantastic games table to keep my 13 year old happy. Friendly and helpful owners.

Our stay in The Cabin was a 5/5

Peaceful, private and a suntrap
We wanted to give it nil point, so that it won't be fully booked next occasion! Fantastic place to stay. A little piece of paradise. Peaceful, private and a suntrap. A little retreat. The hosts, Anne and Chris are very helpful and friendly. We couldn't have asked for better. Anne is a therapist, so we indulged in facials, and hot stone massages. WOW. All organic vegan products too!! The living space is bright and airy, well appointed kitchen. Extremely clean. We had great fun playing pool and air hockey in the evening. There's also a smart TV, which we never bothered turning on. And a lovely evening was spent around the firepit, and indulging in breakfast and evening meals alfresco. Thank you very much Anne and Chris for your kind hospitality. We will be back.

Terrific accommodation
We had a fantastic stay at The Cabin; Chris and Anna are wonderful hosts, it was lovely to meet them. Chris was extremely helpful, especially when offering unprompted suggestions for alternative activities when our plans were affected by extreme weather on the Saturday. The Cabin itself is terrific accommodation, everything was clean, well equipped and presented very well indeed. The Cabin sits in its own private area and the decking/garden are perfect for relaxing in the day or evening. We enjoyed the pool table for Dad and son competition! The additional facilities in the outbuilding proved very useful when needing to dry out our waterproofs (portable heater) but I noted there were other useful facilities at our disposal too should we have needed them. The Cabin is located well for exploring the area to the East and West and of course the Isle of Wight.
