A wonderful property

A wonderful property, well appointed and well thought out design. Well equiped kitchen and instruction manuals available for the appliances. Well thought out guest information booklet with everything you needed to know about the property. Underfloor heating welcome especially as it was cold, frosty and snowy during the stay. Pity that the property is situated beside a busy road which detracted from the wonderful property and outlook at the rear, but there is nothing the owners can do about this.

Amazing weekend away!

Mums weekend away has been a tradition for quite a few years for my 3 friends and I but it was our first time at the Cart House. From the welcome message and a lovely goodie basket that awaited us on arrival we were impressed with every aspect of our stay - well perhaps not the stormy weather but that just made us enjoy the coziness of the Cart House even more. The kitchen is well equipped (including cocktail shaker!), sofas were super comfy ( as were the beds) and the underfloor heating means you can leave your slippers home! We are already looking forward to coming back!

Lovely Week

Spent a lovely week at The Cart House and really enjoyed it. The house is lovely, there is everything there that you would need for a stay and it's in a great location with some lovely pubs and restaurants in the surrounding area. Winchester and Portsmouth area only 20 mins away. Would definately go back again or recommend to someone wanting a comfortable stay in the Winchester/Portsmouth area.

Great stay!

The Cart House was just right for us. Really clean, comfortable and well maintained. We hugely appreciated the hamper with its local produce and communication with the owners was first class. Thanks for a great stay.

Lovely stay, beautiful accommodation

A lovely place to stay. Everything we needed was available, including lots of little extras that you don’t always see. You could tell lots of care had been taken when creating it as a holiday let. Plenty of local food and drink options, and a local shop only a couple of minutes away. The owners were very helpful. Check in and out was easy. Would recommend, and will definitely book again.

Perfect little break

What a great stay, full of character! Hosts have thought of everything, the little details make all the difference; books for children, decaf teabags to name just a couple! Beautiful location, easy to get to many local attractions and peaceful enough just to relax in! Will definitely be returning!!

Exquisite property with magnificent attention to detail

We have stayed in many holiday rentals within the UK and overseas - this accommodation outshines them all. Such a comfortable and relaxing place to stay with provision for everything you would need for everyday living. The proprietors were only a phone call away should you need their help with anything. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a holiday rental in this area.

Amazing place

I stayed here with my 4 month old baby, parents and in-laws for the 2024 New Year. I booked very last minute with the owners and they were so accommodating. They were very helpful with recommendations for restaurants etc for New Years Eve. The property was great, big enough for us all, very clean and comfortable and a perfect location. Couldn’t recommend this place more, just perfect

Fantastic stay

We had an amazing stay. The cart house is faultless - spacious yet cosy, spotlessly clean, and there is a real ‘wow’ factor as soon as you walk through the door. Excellent communication throughout our stay. The welcome basket was such a thoughtful addition. The highchair and cot provided were perfect for our one year old. Great location for marwell zoo/paultons park, plus a vast selection of board games/books/dvds for the rainy days too! We would definitely stay again in the future!

The excellent Cart Hous

We stayed at the Cart House from the 19th until the 25th April and it surpassed our expectations which were high to start with! From the well and thoughtfully stocked welcome basket to the cleanliness and excellent touches throughout it was perfect for our requirements. The owners were on hand if required and very quick to respond to a question we had. All in all we wouldn’t hesitate to highly recommend the Cart House , it was simply excellent.

A bittersweet trip

I booked this fabulous property so that II could introduce my sister to her Great Niece and Nephew for probably the first and last time - she has pancreatic cancer. I coupled this with a trip to mark zoo and Peppa Pig World. The property is stunning and met our expectations and went well beyond. Their four star gold award is very well deserved. I’d recommend it in an instant

Family holiday 3 generations

Our 9 year olds loved the snug and bedroom. They felt the upstairs was their own. Beautiful very well equipped house and welcome pack was great. Excellent location and good parking. Relaxing views and everything easily accessible- sea , zoo, historic Docks at Portsmouth. Ground floor bedrooms and facilities perfect. Kitchen very well laid out. Information pack brilliant. Hosts great.

A perfect holiday stay

Very well appointed property, spacious, modern. There is "Hey Google" to answer questions instead of leaflets! A much appreciated hamper on arrival. Shops fairly near. Pleasant walks in area, and a car ride to many gardens, National Trust properties, historic houses etc. Would suit any age group except perhaps toddlers (ditch at side of garden, children's mezzanine bedroom up narrow stairs) I would visit there again.(and, I, aged 75 , had the mezzanine bedroom- it had its own loo!)

Review of The Cart House

The property was very clean and looked very new, everything had been thought of for a perfect stay. The WiFi was really good and very useful for 2 young children to keep them happy and occupied. The upstairs snug for the kids was brilliant and a lovely selection of DVD's and Games to keep them entertained. Each bedroom had a floor fan which was useful for a couple of hot nights. The owners were really friendly and checked in on us via text to check that everything was ok which was really nice. We were greeted with a fresh loaf, eggs and milk which was really nice to be able to feed the kids after a long journey and to have a nice cup of tea with a great selection of drinks provided.

Faultless Accommodation

Beautiful house, stunning. The owners have thought of everything. Comfy beds, warm and cosy with the underfloor heating. We went for a Christmas weekend and the house was decorated perfectly. The tree lights were on a timer so we didn’t even have to worry about switching them on and off. One small thing and it’s more of a suggestion than a criticism. Only one of the galleries/landing areas is a bedroom. The other side is a lounge. This space was totally unused so seemed a bit of a wasted space. If it had also been a bedroom like the other gallery, we would 100% have used it. We have two snorers in our party, one slight snorer and the other who could sleep on a washing line and snore for England. Boy is it bad! We would have separated them if there was a bed or sofa bed in the other gallery.
