We stayed for 4 nights at the end of May 2012 & I cannot fault the Birchwood. Heather & Ken made us feel very at home, the room was spotlessly clean & the breakfast really set us up for the day. Its location is between the sea front & Albert Road, close to all the action but far away enough... More

We stayed at this B&B for a week and a half and stayed in 3 different rooms (3, 4 and 6). All rooms were spacious, very tastefully decorated and spotlessly clean and with everything you could need. The en-suite bathrooms were well thought out and again very clean. The beds were all extremely comfortable and it was very quiet at... More

Stayed here for a long weekend in April 2012. Room spacious and beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. En suite on the small side but more than adequate. This is the first floor front with the large bay window. Breakfasts are excellent and full choice with nothing seeming to be too much trouble. Heather and Ken are excellent hosts, not in... More

We visited this B & B for a couple of nights in March 2012, whilst visiting the area on holiday. The owners were very hospitable and the breakfasts were very tasty. The rooms are beautifully decorated. It was reasonably priced and is strongly recommended.

When we knew hubby would be working in Portsmouth we selected this B & B based on trip advisor reviews and its central location. From the warm welcome we received on our arrival to the moment we left 4 days later we both felt completely at home. We were allocated room 5 at the top of the house which faces... More

We have returned to the Birchwood a further 2 or even 3 times since our first reviewed visit on here so felt it was justifiable in providing a further review. As always the stay is made delightful by the two hosts Ken and Heather, the last visit was on the occasion of our Anniversary and they kindly provided a small... More

My wife and I and our two sons aged 23 and 19 stayed here for 2 nights as part of an 8 week holiday through Europe, UK and Ireland. In choosing this hotel we were looking for somewhere reasonably priced for all 4 of us, with free wifi access, breakfast and car parking and ideally within walking distance of Gunwharf... More

We would like to say that once again Ken and Heather made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble . We had the same rooms as last time and were very comfortable and spotless. Breakfast was excellent and Heather and Ken helped us find our way around the town and even lent us a map! Will definately... More

I would like to say what a fantastic Guest House Heather and Ken run. I was in a single room, with shower, t.v. tea and coffee facilities, plenty of room if you are on your own, spotlessly clean and tidy, and the Full English breakfast in the morning set you up for the day. If you are on a tight... More
