What a beautiful B&B. Every inch of this property is immaculately maintained. A previous reviewer called 1708 house more of a Boutique Hotel than a B&B and I agree. Molton Brown products, perfectly clean and quiet rooms, a beautifully presented and delicious breakfast and gracious hosts - who could ask for more? I stayed for two nights. Although the beaches...

We spent a week end at 1708 and had a wonderful time. The house and the cottage was lovely and the decor and attention to detail is unbelievable. The period furniture and the whole atmosphere made you feel so special. The location again was so great that we could walk to the shops and the restaurants. The only short coming... More

We stayed three adults and two small children (1 & 3) in one of the charming cottages. The location was great, with a very short distance to restaurants and shops, and a 30 min slow walk to the beach. Lovely staff and good value for money.

My son booked us in here as a Mothers Day treat for my wife. Have to say we were blown away by this place. Our room (no. 8) was amazing. Beautiful older world furniture and decorations. Greeting was so friendly. Not only do you get breakfast but afternoon tea (with wine) and unlimited access to cold drinks in the fridge... More

My dear friends gave us a weekend away at 1708 House for our wedding gift. We had such a wonderful stay. The Inn is absolutely charming (and spotless), and located in central downtown Southampton, which is great for exploring the nearby shops and stores. I recommend renting a car, so you can drive by the beach and check out other... More

My wife and I spent a wonderful weekend in Southampton at the 1708 House and it could not have been better!!! Due to the fact that it was "off season", we got a great price on a beautiful room, which had a queen bed, private HUGE bathroom, and a jacuzzi tub. The house itself is a gorgeous piece of history,... More
