Dairy House - a house that sleeps 16 guests in 7 bedrooms

A superb 7 bedroomed detached property sleeping up to 16 guests within superior quality king size ‘zip and link' double beds (which can separate to create 2 singles if requested), plus additional single beds, made up with crisp white cotton linen and fresh white towels. Two of the bedrooms also have fold out bed chairs and another 2 bedrooms have futon style bed cubes, plus the lounge has 3 sofa beds to accommodate up to 20 guests, if required. (Additional guests over the party size of 16 are charged at £25 per head per week/part week).

The 5 high spec bathrooms all have quality fitted showers and the main 1st floor bathroom is also fitted with a large corner bath, with all towelling provided.

The kitchen comes fitted with all essential mod cons and is fully equipped for self catering with a large range style gas cooker, washing machine, dishwasher, an American style fridge freezer, etc and there is even a second fridge freezer if required.

The lounge also seats 20 on three sofas and pouffes, with binoculars in front of the large picture window to view the goings on in the harbour and across to Portsdown Hill beyond with the 3 sofas converting to bed settees if required.

The dining room is next to the kitchen and is home to a splendid large oak 16 seater dining table with 16 dining chairs, plus a smaller overspill table and 4 chairs to allow dining for 20 with French doors leading out onto the patio.

The conservatory is off the dining and games room and is east facing with small bistro tables and chairs and occasional wicker armchairs where it is lovely to escape with your morning tea and toast and enjoy the first of the morning sun.

In addition the property boasts a super fun games room with a pool table/table tennis table, a 50″ TV and Wii, plus plenty of games to keep young and old amused with more French doors leading out onto the patio.

Finally there are the gardens, the front laid mainly to a drive for up to 5 vehicles and the rear being accessed from French doors from the dining room, games room and conservatory with a raised flagstone patio, plus an all weather artificial lawn area and a large hard standing. You can also hire in a Hot Tub, if desired (Conditions apply-please contact us for further details).

The Dairy House only accepts 'family groups' consisting of both adults and children during April - September and over New Year Period. However if you are an all adult group during April - September we can recommend our other properties which do not have the same level of constraints.

All bedding and towelling is provided, with a mid term maid cleaning service available on request. Additional linen is available at £25 per set to include 1 medium bath towel. Child cots, highchairs and stairgates are also available at no extra cost. (Guests are requested to bring their own child's bedding please)

* Please note the following before booking :-

If your group consists of all adults (and no children) please contact us before booking as previously mentioned some dates within the year are not available for adult only bookings

All our properties are located within residential areas so we do have neighbours whom we need to consider. If you feel you could comfortably monitor noise levels (in particular out in the gardens and outside areas into the evenings) then we would love to have you stay and have had countless group gatherings who have had a great time with us at our properties. If however you feel that it would not be possible to monitor noise levels, then you may wish to consider something more rural, without neighbours.

​In addition to the rental cost we ask our guests for a security deposit, pre-authorised against your credit card. This is in case there is any damage to the property during your stay. The money is simply reserved and then released afterwards if there is no damage.

Our advertised prices are calculated on the number of people requested and may go up or down if amended.
