There was nothing not to like. Just a little more essentials.( kitchen roll , Toilet Rolls , hand wash )

The cottage was lovely and the surrounding was beautiful. A proper traditional cottage.

Not a thing

Our stay at Rose Cottage was everything we expected and more. Directions to the property and instructions for the keys were spot on, Giles popped round in the evening to introduce himself. The cottage was clean, comfortable, cosy and warm, logs were supplied for the fire and Christmas decorations had been put up for us. It was the perfect Christmas get away and we’ll definitely be returning.

A few more amenities would have been appreciated- eg 4 coffee pods for 3 adults staying 4 days were provided. But we had been alerted to basic provisions provided so maybe it was our misunderstanding.

A great location to explore the south coast , quaint cottage as described on line , really clean throughout and reasonably well equipped kitchen. Owners responded to queries during booking process and our stay promptly.

Nothing!

We had a lovely stay in the cosy cottage despite the bad weather. We were warmly welcomed by the host. It was very clean, good beds. Everything you need for a holiday was there. The welcome folder was very handy and plenty to visit nearby. Highly recommended!

Driveway is horrendous, I drive everyday 100 miles daily on average & I have never struggled to park like I did on this drive .. also the view when you leave the driveway back onto road is obstructed so it is a slight hazard (road is fairly busy ) Other than the driveway we had a perfect stay

All good really, a small suggestion would be to add a privacy adhesive to the bathroom window (or else a small courtain) to add some privacy when in the bathroom, which overlooks the garden and golf course. A small detail, really.

The cottage is easy to get to, and a short walk to the village with a couple of good options for eating out. It is tastefully decorated inside with great attention to detail. We stayed in quite a bit, enjoying the large, very well-kept garden and all the games that the hosts kindly leave at guests' disposal (badminton, croquet). Eating out in the gazebo was also a wonderful experience. Thank you very much!

The garden is lovely - an ideal outdoor space to enjoy evenings with friends and/or family. Well maintained with plenty of seating options. The cottage itself is spacious and comfortable.

it was difficult to park on the hard standing/drive this was due to the odd curve of the front railings. I tried both reverse and forwards parking, it was very tight. this could be resolved by removing the angled rail to a straight one, giving some room to swing a vehicle, the entrance was also onto a busy road with a blind spot and again made parking tricky. the internal staircase and ladder type stairs to the attic is difficult if you have any mobility problems. it could be highlighted in the advert for the cottage. although ascetically pleasing the main front bedroom windows are original and had huge gaps. traffic noise was present due to a busy road, wind was coming in, on colder days this would be a problem. most other windows were newer and more efficient. a little note to the owner that the plant on the main bedroom window needs trimming as all night the branches were knocking against the window like someone was continually tapping, it was disturbing, a trim would stop that.

excellent facilities, the garden was so beautiful with lots of extras, games to use outside, a fire pit, BBQ, comfortable seating. the cottage was quirky @ decorated to a high standard. the facilities were excellent & again reflected how much effort the hosts had put in. the location was within a short walk of pubs, a nice cafe & a general shop. a very green area with walking trails so close.

Rose Cottage is a prefect little cottage, in a very pretty village, with a couple of decent pubs, and a very lively tearoom. Very close to Portsmouth, Goodwood and coastal sites. The cottage is over 250 years old and a delight to stay in. We sat and admired the lovely pieces of history that have been preserved in the building by the current owners. The cottage has been updated superbly for modern living, with big comfy beds, excellent bathroom and kitchen facilities, with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Rose Cottage has a vast garden with garden chairs, a fire pit, and a canopied round seating area with heating and lighting installed. A lovely place to sit and relax. Stacey and Giles have put much thought and care into ensuring that every guest can enjoy this wonderful little cottage.

There wasn't anything to not like. Only feedback I would have is to have a dish sponge in the kitchen.

The hosts were absolutely amazing, they way we were looked after I have never experienced before. Big kudos to them! The house itself is lovely, you cannot beat that garden and the view. Will definitely visit again.

Wonderful village location but on the edge of South Downs National Park. Very easy to get to Portsmouth by train or car for its attractions and outlet shopping.

Not really a dislike but the stair ladder up to the loft room would be tricky for people with mobility problems or larger builds. However the kids (aged 15 and 10) saw it as a mini adventure.

Beautiful large garden with views over a golf course. Very clean, stylish and welcoming interiors, with rooms and a bathroom that were bigger than expected for a cottage. Cosy family room with log burner - which was a treat. Very picturesque village with excellent grocery shop and pub. Good location for seeing the sights of Hampshire. Very friendly and helpful owners.

This cottage is stylish, warm, filled with light, art and character. It's comfortable and yet exciting. The garden is gorgeous and obviously loved. Rowlands Castle is a pretty village situated at the edge of South Downs and very close to stunning Chichester Harbour. Very cool location indeed!
