Absolutely Fabulous So tastefully themed with a touch of 007 everywhere. Quirky remote control lighting in every room. Comfortable beds. We will definitely return here again. There was milk and a bottle of prosecco in fridge on our arrival. Such a lovely thoughtful touch. The owner was lovely and helpful. There's instructions inside to help you with local restaurants etc recommended.

The house was spotless and beds were very comfortable. It's on a busy road, but the views is lovely. A very central location and there is a bus stop just outside the house. Thank you for sharing this lovely home with us and we would love to come again.

    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!
