George House The South Coast

A seaside sensation for a memorable meetup

Oh we do like to be beside the seaside, don’t we? George House, a handsome Edwardian town house for up to 12 guests, is just two minutes’ walk from the seafront at Southsea in Hampshire. If you like a house with personality, George House is for you with its lush floral and bold geometric wallpaper, rich colours, and funky design details like the silver octopus candle holder and woodland fox wall light.

Make cooking a pleasure in the fully equipped kitchen, unwind in the restful sitting room, or set up a pool tournament in the games room. In the evening, gather in the cinema room - complete with 105-inch screen - for movies, PS4 games or the big match. Alternatively, sit out on the decked terrace for cocktails and a barbecue or head out to a nearby restaurant. Bedtime brings six individualistic double bedrooms with glamorous ensuite bathrooms or in-room freestanding baths.

There are endless things to do when you stay at George House; don flip flops and sun hats for a day on the beach, mooch around local delis and artisan bakeries, or head to nearby attractions, such as Portsmouth Historic Docks, Marwell Zoo and the Forest of Bere.

What we think

We are particularly excited to launch this wonderful boutique townhouse in Southsea! There's plenty to do in the house itself with its games room, complete with Juke Box and a cinema room. But it's also just two minutes' stroll from the seafront, and perfectly located for enjoying the sights and sounds of Southsea and Portsmouth. Book soon, this is going to be a popular house!

During this time, we ask that any music is kept to a level that can only be heard inside the house, and that clients don’t use the hot tub.
