Guest house holiday rentals in The Solent

We had a lovely short break and it was just what we wanted. The accommodation is well equipped with a lovely view of a garden and horses in a field. There are lots of really nice touches like breakfast ingredients and homemade jams available to use. Would definitely stay again if we were in the area

Anthony was such a welcoming and generous host. The Cartbarn is a delightful - very well designed, immaculate and in the most beautiful and tranquil setting. Having a delicious, cooked-to-order breakfast delivered to the door each morning by Anthony was the icing on the cake!

Another lovely stay at this peaceful, clean and cosy place! Marcus and Susan are great hosts, very friendly. The place is nicely decorated and thoughtfully furnished with interesting reading, comfortable furniture and a full kitchen.

Hayley is a great host if you need any help or information where to get breakfast or the shop just ask . Great place to stay and relax , sunbathe, read .

A lovely place to stay, immaculatly clean, well maintained. plenty of space and a good outside space too. hosts very friendly and helpful. will be returning. thank you

My wife and I spent a few days at Liz and David's AirBnb. Lovely secluded place, good pubs nearby reached by walks through the forest. Breakfast provided; great shower. Easy to get everywhere in the New Forest. We would definitely stay again!!

This was a great place to stay. Jade was a wonderful host. The bed was comfortable and the shower had great water pressure. Jade was very accommodating and was quick to respond to requests. If I am ever in Southampton again I would definitely stay here.

A lovely little cottage to stay in for some peace and quiet. The perfect distance from Winchester where you can appreciate both the City and the countryside. The walks around the town were gorgeous and the house had everything we needed. It was so clean and was beautifully decorated. Could not recommend enough. So good for the price!!!

Our stay at The Limes was short, but absolutely perfect for what we needed! The accommodation looked exactly like the photos, very clean and everything was provided for us. Ros is a lovely host who was great with communication prior to our stay to make sure everything was great prior to arrival. Would definitely stay again!

We had a wonderful stay in Emily's air BnB in Bosham .It was furnished to a very high standard ,spotless and very pretty with fresh flowers .The location was beautiful and quiet yet walking distance to two great pubs and harbour walks .Highly recommended .We will go again .

We had a lovely stay at deer lodge, Stephanie went above and beyond for my mums 60th. I’d highly recommend end!! A short drive away from Selsey & west wittering beach. One of our highlights was visiting the beautiful bracklesham tea rooms. Thank you so much we had the best time xx

Always very quick to respond to online messages. Parking permit organised for us immediately. Cabin had everything we needed. Bed is slightly tricky to manoeuvre but that is made clear in the listing. Great location. Peaceful and quiet but close to town. Extra touches in kitchen much appreciated (milk, butter etc) Julia thought of everything!

The Cabin was in a fanatic location to explore the new forest and the communication from Tom and Lucy prior to arrival was excellent. On arrival the space was spotlessly clean and all amenities required were to a high standard. The homemade bread and beer in the fridge was a lovely touch. On arrival there was a personal note from Tom and Lucy with local recommendations and the local pubs delivered fantastic food. Communication throughout the stay and on checkout was excellent and gave us confidence on how to leave and check out. The brewery is clearly a nice place to have on your doorstep for a quiet beer when required. Overall a great stay and we will be retuning at some point.

Beautiful, clean and such lovely decor. I always love a host that goes above and beyond and Emma does that and more. Easy check in and lots of lovely extras in the home to make the stay nicer (bread,coffee etc) thanks so much !!

Great communication from Andy & Katie prior to arrival and during our stay to check everything was ok. Thank you for the welcome pack. We had a lovely quiet and relaxing few days at The Retreat. The accommodation was excellent for the 2 of us and our dog. It was very clean and good amenities. The Trusty Cutter pub served excellent food. Great location to explore the New Forest and for dog walks. Would recommend staying here.

Garden cottage was perfect for a quiet getaway, the host was really helpful and communicative and the room itself was fully stocked with everything you could possibly need and really thoughtfully done. Property was a bit difficult to find even though the instructions were great I still managed to drive past twice but thats very much because I’m useless 😂 Only downside was the tv reception was a bit intermittent but we enjoyed the terrace area with a drink and only wanted tv for some background noise in the evening. Would love to return and explore more of the area next time

We had such a memorable experience staying here — just myself and my three boys aged 7, 12, and 13. From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel completely at home. Marley was incredibly friendly with a great sense of humour that had us all laughing and relaxed. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and ideal for a family. You can tell a lot of thought and care goes into making sure guests feel welcome. The boys didn’t even miss their devices — they were too busy learning and soaking up the experience. Some of our highlights were watching the red kites feed, spotting deer, and seeing badgers feeding — all made even more special by Marley and Fred, who patiently and enthusiastically educated us along the way. The boys gained so much from it, and it was a joy to see them so engaged and curious. We loved it so much we even tried to stay an extra night! Truly a warm, welcoming, and unforgettable place to stay with kids — we’ll treasure the memories

We had a lovely stay at Salvis Hideout. Easy to find and a great welcome from Sam. It was just what we needed. Big bedrooms and TVs. Plenty of parking for two cars. We recommend and would return.

We loved this beautiful, well designed and peaceful annex. The sunny garden was a delight, with nectar laden flowers and a stunning wild flower patch that attracted bees and other pollinators, butterflies and birds. The outside table and chairs were in the sun for hours so we could eat breakfast outside and sit well into the evening. The bed is very comfortable and kitchen had everything we needed. Using our netflix and BBC iPlayer logins, straightforward. A much appreciated addition was the provision of hair conditioner ( which we’ve found no longer provided in many places). We were touring on our bikes and able to store them safely in the owner’s garage. The stunning beach is a 15-20 minutes walk. Bus stops to Chichester, at the end of the road. We had such a lovely 4 nights here, we’ll come again.

We absolutely loved our stay. The garden room was exactly as Susie had described. It was so peaceful and quiet, and it really was a very short walk to the local shops and to the beach. We would definitely visit again. Susie was very friendly and helpful. Thank you Susie and Andrew

A stunning home from home. Gorgeous countryside all around and a lovely enclosed private garden. The barn is beautifully decorated, with really personal touches. Breakfast and essentials provided. Comfortable and just a total delight. Anna was helpful, responsive and courteous at all times. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Our stay was fabulous! We had the best time and the lodge was stunning. Everything we asked for. Mark and Maria were wonderful hosts and very accommodating. We would be definitely staying here again.

This 2 day trip surpassed our expectations! Beautiful accommodation in the most wonderful location. We loved the area and the walks around it. Sarah and Shawn were fantastic hosts, really friendly and gave us top tips. Walk to the local pub was a brisk 30 minute walk away across the picturesque new forest. I am already planning to come back and have recommended to my friends for their short break.

Practically perfect in every way A delightful stay - The Cabin is brilliantly designed - great care has obviously gone into making it a comfortable place with every amenity that one would need It’s less than a minute to the beach and the hosts - Mika and Sarah are very responsive and communicative, ideal hosts Loved the place and we’ll definitely be back (ps - title of the review is accurate but also a deliberate reference to Mary Poppins, the film which Sarah referred to in our first conversation as we arrived 😁)
