This charming cottage in the centre of Emsworth couldn't be a better spot to holiday close to the water. The hosts have gone to every trouble to finish the property to an incredibly high standard from the wonderfully equipped kitchen to the hotel quality bedding.

The hosts have also provided a washing machine, clothes airer an iron and ironing board. There is a large kitchen island with seating for four where you can sit and enjoy whatever delights you have whipped up in the kitchen or enjoy a takeout from on of the local restaurants or takeaways.

The sitting room is open to the kitchen with plenty of comfortable seating and a large smart TV, the bi-fold doors are the width of the house and open onto the lovely sunny and private south facing garden.

Up to the first floor there is a super king to the rear which can be split into twin beds upon request at the time of booking. To the front there is a king room with an en suite shower room. The family bathroom is also on the first floor with a beautiful free standing bath with shower attachment.

There is one parking space available for guests to use, off road to the rear of the house.

The hosts at Nile Street will accept one well behaved dog.

This really is an exceptional property where any quest would be delighted to stay.
