WOW what a lovely small cottage
A home from home this property has everything you need, full kitchen for them home cooked meals leading to a cosy sofa area with TV to snuggle up in. Upstairs is a nicely fitted out bathroom/shower room and a nice double bedroom for a good night’s sleep and outside is a private courtyard to soak up the last of the days sun and chill. The cottage is positioned in a securely gated courtyard behind shops in the small high street with a good range of restaurants and bars and not far from the seafront. Complete Holiday Homes are close by so clean towels and bedding are available on request when needed. I would definitely stay here again if in the area for a weekend or work 10/10.

Whitsun Cottage was ideal and did exactly what it says on the tin.
It is ideal for a couple visiting the area. For me it was perfect and all the facilities were all mod cons which all worked perfectly. A lot of care and thought has gone into the property for its presentation, appearance, features and facilities. All utensils are there, it wanted for nothing, everything seems new and all in good working order. Ken gave a very thorough hand over and provides an excellent meet and greet service, the gated area is all very well lit, safe and neat. Overall the whole experience was perfect for my requirements and I would definitely use Complete Holidays again.

Clever use made of available space. We fully enjoyed the High Street, markets and waterfront. There is plenty to do and see with easy access to Portsmouth. Complete Holiday Homes are friendly and very efficient. Thank you for an enjoyable stay.

Whitsun Cottage was very nice, clean and with everything we needed.
The ferry was lovely to pop over to the docks. I would like to thank you all for making the whole process go so smoothly by answering all our queries (whether pre-arrival or while we were there) in a friendly and timely manner. Dr, Brioua - August 2021
