Hamble Reach Reviews

Anthony

Lovely big house ideal for family gatherings. Garden is straight onto the river (down a slope) which may mean your dog (or child) can access the water unsupervised. There is also free range wildlife which dogs may chase. Good location for access to motorway, shops and restaurants but lovely and quiet.

Roger

Well equipped house which is very spacious. Great kitchen and games room.

Keith

We had a fabulous week at Hamble Reach. The house is very spacious and well equipped. The location is stunning (fabulous sunsets over the river), the boys had some serious fun in the Games Room while we all thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub. There are loads of great walks and pubs within a short drive and of course you have the city / shopping just 30Read more mins away. Happy to recommend and we would certainly go back again. Hide

Paul

Great accommodation for a family get together. We all loved the games room. The rooms are all spacious, clean and very comfortable. There is a very well equipped kitchen but Deliveroo is available if you don't feel the need to cook. We all had a wonderful time. Perfect for our dogs too.

Kevin

We were a party of 10 from 4 generations and had a great time. The house is beautiful and comfortable with something for everyone and the area is stunning.

Andrew

We had a fabulous three-generation family weekend at this lovely house for my wifes 70th birthday. Five children aged 4 to 12 and five adults and every single one of us loved it. The space, the facilities and the location were all excellent. We may very well return next year.

Nicholas

A secret rural oasis close to the coast and attractions of Portsmouth and Southampton. Access to unspoilt banks of the Hamble. Well equipped games room and hot tub. All in all a great holiday week for three generations of our family.

Jiten

8 friends had an amazing time. Property was well equipped and the rooms were large and spacious. The games room was brilliant. And the hot tub fantastic. It was nice to walk down to the river behind the property. The local town with restaurants was only a 10 min cab ride which was a bonus. Highly recommend and look forward to staying there again.

Very spacious cottage with good amenities. Nature is on your doorstep but only 30 minute drive from central Southampton. The games room is great and entertaining is easy with all the space available. Hot tub was also a great bonus.

Donna

Fabulous house all the little added extra made the stay just perfect hairdryer, slow cooker etc

Randolph

A very spacious property, ideal for large parties. Steve & Claire where very friendly. They even have kayak you can hire, as you have a water frontage. Excently equipt games room.

Carole

Great home for family gatherings plenty of space, games room a real plus. So nice to have a hot tub as well Location is wonderful

Jackie

We were a group of 5 couples on our annual weekender. The house was amazing and very well appointed, the setting was stunning on the bank of the river, with a beautiful wooded area and loads of wildlife. The deer were especially nice to see. It was within 25 mins walk of local pub, (lovely Sunday roast). We made full use of the hot tub, BBQ and bri lliant games room. There was plenty of space both inside and out in the grounds. Will definitely book again. Thank you it was truly amazing

Linda

Fabulous house situated in large private grounds with views over the river Hamble and surrounded by wildlife such as deer and woodpeckers. The games room was a hit with the children and adults alike, as was the large hot tub. The spacious utility room is ideal for one or more dogs with the tiled/wooden flooring downstairs being perfect for their pa ws. The large master bedroom with its small breakfast size balcony overlooking the river was amazing, as were the large TVs in virtually every room!

David

!SELECTED!We had a fantastic time in this property celebrating my mum's 80th birthday. The house was clean and comfortable. The master bedroom and ensuite were both huge and very impressive. The games room/bar was ideal, especially as the weather was not the best. Beautiful garden in which we had visits from Deer. I would imagine this would be a perfect Summer retreat with its massive patio, BBQ & hot tub, all overlooking the river Hamble. A great time had by us all, we hope to return sometime.!ENDOFSELECTED!

Wow! The photos of this beautiful house do not do it justice. We booked for Christmas week with a large family and upon arrival we were in love. The house had been beautifully decorated for Christmas and was clean and very comfortable. The children loved the games room and the master bedroom was amazing. The grounds were beautiful and we often spot ted deer, with lots of lovely walks and places to explore. We would love to return in the summer and make use of the BBQ and views from the patio.
