"Stayed with 10 friends with average age of 60. Photos of house interior on Vrbo are generally accurate - those on the website for Wheathill show different furniture and soft furnishings. Overall1930s shabby chic vibe is very nice and as expected. Good location in rural residential area10 mins walk to nearest shop and a pub. Neighbours are very close by and pay close attention to people coming and going. Rooms were clean and beds had clean white bedding. Mattresses were very comfortable. There...

Leonardo Hotel Southampton

10/10 Excellent

"Nice place"

The Elizabeth House Hotel

8/10 Good

"The staff were wonderful and very helpful. We had 2 breakfasts which had a lot of variety and the food was good. We ate dinner one night, the pot pie was excellent and my husband’s ham and eggs were very good. As far as the room, we booked a superior room located on the second floor. We had to move all of our big luggage via the stairs as there’s no elevators. The staff asked if we needed help and we declined it. The room had carpet with some major stains. There were no mirrors on the walls for me to finish my hair or make up. There is a lack of shelving in the bathroom to sit out toiletries, but we managed for a 2 night stay. With a few minor enhancements, I would have rated this hotel higher"

DoubleTree by Hilton Southampton

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were extremely helpful and the restaurant served an awesome fish and chips. Our server (Viro?) was exceptional."
