Completing the ground floor accommodation is a light and airy lounge with Smart TV, comfortable seating, and glass doors onto to the wonderful, adjacent sunroom. In here, you’ll discover a delightful place to unwind, with a chess table and distant views over the garden to the river. A staircase leads from the hallway to the first floor, where there is one double bedroom, two twin bedrooms and two king-size, all boasting TVs. A further family bathroom with stylish décor can also be found on this floor.

Heading outside to the expansive grounds, there is a large patio immediately to the rear with a hot tub, built-in charcoal BBQ and furniture. A lawn leads from here to the bordering woodland, which you can walk through to reach the private riverbank and marshland.

House was huge! Plenty of space for everyone to hangout and either be together or, have their own time. There was nothing that wasn't provided. Outside was even bigger! Hot tub was lovely & invigorating :-) Definitely recommend this place.

A lovely big house with plenty of space for 10 people. Beautiful location on the river where everyone enjoyed paddling boarding. The games room and hot tub were a real hit with all the family. Lovely big gardens although the climbing frame looked liked it needed some TLC! We were blessed with glorious weather and spent lots of time in the garden. Read more Whiteley shopping complex which is 5 mins by car was a bonus. Overall we had a brilliant time and would definitely return. Hide

Hamble Reach is in a fantastic location with lovely grounds; there is a stunning Weeping Willow tree which is magnificent. With easy, private access to the tidal river is ideal for paddle boards and canoes. There is more than enough room for ten people without being on top of one another.

A great spacious property which allowed 6 adults, 2 children and a baby to have privacy when needed. The property needs decorating in places which makes it look tired.

Not as described or as shown in the photos. Messy and dirty and no positive response from caretaker, who did not rectify the issues. Sewerage was emptied while we were there very disappointing. It was a special occasion and did not justify the cost of the property. Tried to engage with Holiday cottages and still no follow up - would not recommend.

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.

Excellent location and lovely house; however faulty toilet throughout the week meant that three bathroom property didnt live up to expectations or price tag, and families had to share a bathroom. No attempt to fix the toilet throughout the week, therefore should not have been advertised as three separate bathrooms.
