    Location, easy to check in and out, being able to leave the car in a safe parking space meant we could relax and explore on foot without worrying about parking charges. Fabulous views across the harbour and cathedral from the living room. Well equipped and comfortable, felt more like a home than a holiday rental. We regularly visit Portsmouth to see family and this is the best apartment we have found.

    Travelled to Portsmouth for my graduation & wanted somewhere within walking distance of the venues - the Clocktower apartment ticked that box! We've stayed in many apartments/ holiday homes over the years & this place was head & shoulders above them all. The care & attention is evident throughout the apartment. Clean, tidy, very good facilities, & close to local amenities. We loved the apartment & will be looking to book again in the not too distant future!

    We loved everything about the villa. The location was exceptional - looking out over Ventnor and the sea was brilliant each day. The garden area meant we spent lots of time outside. Inside was also lovely, very comfortable, practical and with bags of character. Wow, we just loved it and had an amazing time there. It was near to so many things, Ventnor shops and restaurants, beach, park, Steeplehill Cove and Botanical Gardens and the coastal path. Our dogs appreciated the venue too and looked sad to leave.
