I worked in Portsmouth for 6 months and having completed detailed research and having tried a number of Guest Houses, I eventually came across Esk Vale and stayed for 4 months. An earlier review on this site of inflexible breakfast almost put me off - but the Guest House was under new ownership with Bev and Dave who made me... More

The double bed wasn't very comfortable, having a very thin mattress on a very hard base. The single bed was okay. There was a strong musty... More

Good location for exploring Southsea and Portsmouth. Big advantage of off street parking. The Sea Angling club over the road is worth a visit especially if you have children. Owner very helpful.

The owners were quick to reply to my many questions via email. After flying into Heathrow, we took a National Express coach to the main Portsmouth station, called the Hard Interchange. I booked...

The rooms and showers were clean and fresh and really good to look forward to after a tiring day of travel. There was the usual flat screen TV and tea... More

Stayed two nights at Esk Vale with a friend, a lovely little guest house, room was clean, towels provided for the en-suite shower, again very clean. Andy and Maria were very welcoming, and made a great full english breakfast. Great value for money!!! Friendly, good location! I'd stay again.
