Dolphin House

We h ad a lovely stay in Dolphin house. It was very well situated, convenient for the restaurants,shops and quay side; we had lovely walks straight from the apartment. The parking was tricky; we were there in the week when there was none nearby in the road, but found some nearby. We also found the bed a bit uncomfortable. Overall though, it was good value and we would stay there again, as we loved Emsworth.

Good location plain accommodation

The apartment was clean and comfortable and well located. Accommodations were basic eg we missed a stove and coffee maker. Parking sometimes hard. Lack of fresh air access a problem.

A lovely spot next to the water

We stayed for 2 months as we are having building work done and the flat was just right for us. The flat is very comfortable and well equipped. The location is great and although it is on-street parking, you can usually find a space for a few hours and it's not restricted after 6pm or on Sundays. The flat is a little tired in places and we had some damp - but it has been a horribly wet Jan/Feb so quite understandable. I will be recommending the flat to friends/family.

This flat needs attention to safety

Looked ok from outside but quickly disillusioned as it’s split in two areas and the lounge is very dark and lights ridiculously bright. The windows, front one I couldn’t open, kitchen has been bodged and needs replacing as does the bathroom window.A disappointment

Super for a short break

The flat was well-equipped, comfortable and warm (essential in the cold weather). On the downside, the directions finding and getting into the building were misleading and no-one was on the end of the Henry Adams phone to assist me. Huge thanks to some local residents who helped me - otherwise I might still be sitting on the doorstep now. Once inside, the flat wasn't quite as clean as I would have liked. Initial difficulties overcome, I greatly enjoyed my stay. The flat is well located for shops and cafes in the town, and for some lovely coastal walks. It's also walkable from the station.

The Dolphin house was in a perfect location for our needs. Close to bus and train links, with the town centre just a few steps away. The house was quaint and full of character which I'm glad was kept. However the bed and pillows were not very comfortable. Pillows were lumpyand the mattress too soft. The bed creaked everytime you moved. The duvet was not the right size for the duvet cover. There was also dust on all the glasses and the kitchen equipment and tools needed a good wash before using. There was also a build up of dust and fluff behind the settee and bedroom furniture. It was a shame also that there was no dryer in the house or a combo washer/dryer. The fire alarm kept going off for no reason. A gentleman came to fix it in the middle of the night which we really appreciated. However it went off again so we just took the batteries out. There are two downlights that are not working and I wondered if this could be the problem. Other than that we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Dolphin House. We got to know our neighbours and we couldn't wish for nicer people. Thank you.

Basic accommodation

Good central location but I would not recommend this to others.The sofa is very uncomfortable as the seat slopes backwards.Only 1 set of towels per person was provided for 1 week which was completely insufficient.Overall,the apartment is quite dark and the bedroom window wouldn't open not allowing any air in which was difficult in hot weather. However,it was a good price so if you are not too fussy (like me!),it would be fine.

Despite this being one of six apartments, the property was very quiet and the sleep quality was good. The location is such that you are in a tranquil area but within easy driving range of various attractions ranging from stately homes to military museums to shopping outlets. Local amenities are good and a few minutes drive away are more substantial outlets. The property is ideal for a short or longer break as there is so much to do in the area.
