Serviced Apartments in Portsmouth

4 kilometres of seafront, the Mary Rose and HMS Victory and a castle built by Henry VIII, there’s plenty more where this came from but why not discover the rest for yourselves and rent a serviced apartment or holiday letting here for the ultimate Portsmouth experience.

With such a rich history just waiting to be explored what better place to start your tour of Portsmouth than the castle King Henry VIII built, Southsea Castle. Henry built this castle as part of the city’s fortification system in 1544 and, as it overlooks the water, it is believed that poor Henry would have seen his beautiful ship, the Mary Rose, meet her fate from this fort. Take a tour and enjoy a good dose of Royal history.

From your aparthotel or self-catered apartment in Portsmouth you also have access to Portsmouth Historical Dockyards. Take a stroll through the dockyards for an explosion of history. Here you will discover the remains of Henry VIII’s much loved Mary Rose which sank off Portsmouth in 1545. She was recently recovered and now sits waiting for you to admire her fading beauty.

Lord Nelson’s flagship HMS Victory is also here and you can take a tour of this impressive ship. HMS Warrior, also present on the docks, offers an insight into Victorian Navy life. Walk the decks and get a feel of what life on the ocean would have been like in the 1800s.

The Trafalgar Experience allows you to see and hear what it would have been like at the last battle Nelson fought with  plenty of atmospheric sound effects, lights and wounded soldiers. At Action Stations you can learn about the modern Royal Navy, take command of a warship, fly a chopper, climb one of the tallest climbing towers in Europe and fight battles with the marines. Endless educational fun.

The docks offer numerous museums, plenty of places to grab a bite to eat and some great shopping opportunities with the likes of The Mary Rose Shop, Nauticalia Shop and Antiques Storehouse. A fantastic, history packed day for the whole family.

A superb place for an evening meal that is just a stones throw from your apartment rental or holiday let in Portsmouth is The King Street Tavern. At this typical old English tavern you can enjoy delicious food, excellent service and a really great atmosphere. The Sunday roasts here are just the best.
