Bailey Cottage Reviews

We had a great week at Bailey Cottage. The cottage is ideal for anyone travelling by train straight off the train and into the house! Despite the close proximity the station had no impact of noise or disturbance on our enjoyment. The big hot tub was beautifully warm and well used and enjoyed. The cottage has lots of living space and easily accommodates 8 people. Thanks for a great week
Unfortunately there were several issues of poor maintenance which spoilt our stay. We were concerned over safety issues regarding the electrics and the living areas needed a deep clean. We were given the wrong key number for entry which took a while to rectify.
We had an amazing stay at Bailey Cottage celebrating my Dads 70th Birthday. The cottage is beautiful and has everything you could ask for and more. Its a great location a stones throw from the station and we enjoyed days out at Lymington and Portsmouth Harbour by train. The Jolly Sailor nearby serves amazing food. The owner was very helpful. Will definitely stay again.
We had a fantastic break at Bailey Cottage. The cottage was everything we wanted plus more. The hot tub and games were great and not just for the children. James was very friendly and helpful. Great location with the railway station so close and lots of pubs within walking distance. We hope to stay again next year.
We had a fantastic stay at Bailey Cottage. The location is peaceful, close to Hamble and the country park. The host James was really friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The cottage is a great size and we enjoyed the hot tub and games room.
Andrew
Bailey Cottage was a lovely base to explore, The New Forest, Portsmouth, Lymington and Winchester. The house was very well equipped. It was also clean comfortable and warm. The owner was very helpful in ensuring we settled in without any issues. He recommended The Jolly Sailor pub which served wonderful food and everyone was very friendly. Our dog enjoyed walking around The River Hamble Country Park, which was about 1k away from the property. The house also has an EV charger which we used regularly. There was an app to download and set up an account which I found easy to implement. We highly recommend the property and would definitely stay there again if in the area.
Fantastic house, everything you could need is there, great if you fancy leaving ... Fantastic house, everything you could need is there, great if you fancy leaving the car and using the train, lovely garden, house is amazing, stylish, practical, comfortable
Jackie
We had a great stay in Bailey Cottage. The games table and hot tub were a great hit with all the family. The spacious kitchen and dining area let us eat together in comfort. Some lovely touches that made the stay extra special.
James the host was easily contacted and was happy to accommodate requests. The cottage was clean and in a brilliant position right by the station for trains to Southampton or Portsmouth. Various places to eat within a mile with a Tesco Extra not too far away. Well worth a consideration.
Lesley
Very comfortable and very well located opposite the station so with a large party people had choices of travel ie car or train.
Beautiful property. James was very responsive and super friendly. Highly recommend a stay at Bailey Cottage.
James was an amazing host, couldn't do enough to help! Bailey Cottage is gorgeous, we all had a wonderful time. We'll definitely be back!
Cassie
We had a great week in the cottage. Lots of space for 8 of us. We spent a large amount of time in the house having family meals and a bbq one afternoon. The owner was only a call away if needed only a quick question one day that I had. I would recommend the house for shortlong stays. Train station right outside the house you didnt hear to go off to other towns etc if you wanted to. The only very minor thing I would say is a covered area to bbq would have helped, as we had heavy rain on the day!
Aleisha
Lovely cottage and gardens. The property was great for our group at different ages and stages and the contact with the owner before and during was helpful and a nice touch to have.
We loved Bailey Cottage. We stayed for three nights in April. Our kids spent hours playing pool and enjoying the hot tub. We also walked to the local pub and had 15 taken off our bill because we were guests at the cottage. The house is beautiful and very clean. We would highly recommend Bailey Cottage.
Claire
We had a great stay. Hot tub was lovely and hot. Great location and easy walk to local pub. Very homely feel to the place. Well stocked with games and equipment and lovely welcome pack. Would recommend
Vanessa
Great communication from the owner before our stay & very prompt to respond to a query during our stay. Beautiful location we enjoyed lunch in the Jolly Sailor, 5 mins walk, & walks along the river. The cottage was a fantastic size for 6 of us, great facilities & welcome hamper, & we loved the hot tub. We will definitely be back
Very pleasant break. Cottage very comfortable and well equipped. Location ideal.
We have just spent a wonderful fun family weekend at Bailey Cottage. The cottage was equipped with everything we needed and the hot tub was just a real bonus as we were blessed with sunshine too. Thank you!
Our group of 6 stayed for 4 days at Bailey Cottage which is beautiful and had all the space we needed. All of the rooms are well appointed with ample facilities. The hot tub was clean and well maintained. Its location was ideal and despite being within the station car park we were not disturbed by the comings and goings of this little local station. The walk around the marina and across on the ferry was perfect for burning off some energy. Will definitely stay again!
Perfect for our late Christmas family reunion, including two babies and a dog! The property was warm , clean , comfortable and very well appointed. The bedrooms were spacious, the decor attractive . It is clear the guests needs have been thoughtfully predicted. The owners communication was outstanding. He phoned me beforehand to give me an update on the property and subsequently checked in to make sure all was okay! Brilliant!
Great place and very comfortable. Lots of nice touches. We had a plumbing issue which was speedily resolved. I would consider upgrading the sofas as they are becoming quite soft now.
We had a fantastic stay at Bailey Cottage. Its a great location being so close to the station, walking distance to plenty of places to eat and 5 mins drive to a huge Tesco. Its well equipped & well maintained. The owner was very helpful. We particularly enjoyed the hot tub & the log burner! Thank you!
We had such a fantastic time. The hosts were extremely informative and helpful and the house was exactly what we wanted. Definitely planning to come back in the future!
We spent a thoroughly lovely weekend at Bailey Cottage. It's a fantastic property with great facilities my arm still aches from playing too much air hockey.... We had been slightly hesitant about the proximity to Bursledon station but in fact, we barely noticed. And it proved very handy as another transport option during our stay! James, the owner, reached out to us before we arrived to make sure we were all set for our stay. Which was very much appreciated. We can 100 recommend Bailey Cottage!
Lindsay
This was an excellent property for a friends reunion. The accommodation was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. It had been very thoughtfully and creatively adapted from an older building. The facilities were excellent and the owner provided all the information we needed prior to our stay. We would recommend Bailey Cottage.
Edmund
Outstanding! ! What a perfect cottage. Went for a weekend with 3 friends as a foothold from which to enjoy the South Downs. Lovely and clean, all the amenities you might need, wonderful little pub a short walk away and couldn't be easier for my friends coming by train. James was super attentive and very responsive. Thank you James! I can't recommend Bailey Cottage enough...
Excellent facilities and location. lots to do nearby for all the family with the dockyard, Isle of wight, Southampton etc . The train station was so close it allowed easy access to lots of places, but there was no problem with noise coming from there. A beautiful holiday home.
It is a wonderful location for socialising and celebrating with friends or family. We really enjoyed our time there
Bailey Cottage is a beautiful house in a good location. We were a 3 generational group of 8 and we found the house to be perfect for our stay. It was clean, well equipped and we made good use of the hot tub and games room. Communication with the owners was excellent and the welcome pack was greatly appreciated. We visited Winchester and Lymington to the West, and Gunwharf Quays, Stokes Bay, Hamble and Bursledon closer to the house. We found everything we needed close by in terms of supermarkets and shops. We ate at the Jolly Sailor and the new waterfront Boat House cafe at Swanwick Marina. We would be happy to recommend Bailey Cottage to anyone looking to stay in this lovely area, and we will definitely look to return next time we come to visit. A really lovely holiday cottage!
Bailey Cottage was ideally placed for discovering the area with access to a railway station just across the road. We werent disturbed by the trains running past because they were so quiet. Great for visiting Portsmouth visitor attractions and Southampton area with no need to drive. The house itself was large enough to provide spacious accommodation for our family. There is a games room with an air hockey, table tennis and pools table all in one. There are console games as well. The kitchen is well equipped with dishwasher, large fridge freezer and electric range. The outdoors were great with a garden and hot tub for relaxing. A lovely hamper with drinks and snacks was provided on our arrival too. The beds were very comfortable. The bathrooms offered plenty of hot water for showers. Overall a great place for a holiday.
Nicole
Excellent stay in Bailey Cottage, it suited our needs perfectly. I was concerned about open windows and being close to the station however this did not disturb our family atall. Having the station so close to hand meant the younger ones could be in Portsmouth or Southampton within 20 minutes and have a night out without have to worry about driving. The older members enjoyed the short walk to the lovely Jolly Sailor, the Seahorse cafe at the harbourside, just under the bridge. Across the main road was a fresh fish shop selling an amazing array of fresh fish and shellfish. Having a car, although not essential, meant we could visit beautiful Hamble, we had a lovely dinner at River Rat and liked the look of King and Queen too had we more time. Super huge Tesco also within a 5 minute drive. We were a mixed family group and would definitely recommend this property.
Bailey Cottage is such a wonderful and comfortable home to stay in. We were a party of 6 adults celebrating my mothers 80th birthday, so ages from 20 to 81! It worked so well. The kitchen space is perfect for entertaining, the games room was very well used and so many break out areas for quiet time too. My husband even said that this is first the holiday home that he would want to live in. Really is praise indeed!! Fabulous time!
This property was outstanding! Far exceeded my and our expectations as the booking looked great enough from the photos, yet in reality they did it no justice, Bailey Cottage is stunning! The host was superb, made a phone call to me to help me get started and told me to call or message if there was anything not up to standard or if any problems arose. The house is a great getaway, close to a brilliant pub near the waters edge the Jolly Sailor and on the car park of a train which was incredibly convenient! We went with a party of eight and had a brilliant time, plenty of space to relax, tonnes of amenities and even a little welcome package. This is a brilliant getaway and I would so so recommend it. Amazing!
We had the most perfect stay in Bailey Cottage for my sons wedding weekend. The location was ideal and the house really lived up to our expectations. The host gave us lots of helpful information beforehand, provided a welcome basket on arrival, and the house space, facilities and attention to detail were spot on. The garden and hot tub were much appreciated by the groomsmen before the service, and the grandchildren made full use of the amazing range of toys and games before their wedding duties. We wouldnt hesitate to recommend the house in future.
Absolutely fantastic stay. The cottage was just wonderful and had everything for the little ones that joined us on our family trip. Lovely open space downstairs, excellent fully equipped kitchen, plenty of board games and toys for the children. The beds were really comfy and the lovely welcome hamper that we were greeted with was a great touch. The communication from James in the run up and during was second to done. Excellent host and would really recommend the cottage for family getaways. We took the kids out to Manor Farm and soft play one morning which is only 12 minutes away. The details in the booklet provided were so helpful too. James, thankyou so much for a wonderful stay. Bailey cottage is beautiful and we will definitely be booking again in future! Worth every penny.
A beautiful place. The owner was welcoming and attentive. Good transport and some lovely local amenities.
This is our 2nd visit to Bailey's Cottage. We enjoyed our stay there very much. This is a perfect cottage, all the rooms are very well decorated and furnished with everything you could possibly need. The kitchendininglounge area is so inviting, we didn't even use the other living areas of the house. The gamestoy room is packed with toys and games for all ages and certainly kept my 2 grand children aged 2 and 4 happy for the whole stay. The cottage location is excellent, with the station opposite for easy access to Portsmouth and wonderful river walks 5 minutes away. The Jolly Sally is definitely worth a visit and the 15 discount makes it even more inviting. The welcome pack is exceptionally generous and very much appreciated. The owner James is very helpful and only a text away if needed. We will definitely be returning to Bailey's Cottage in the near future.
Rebecca
We were really looking forward to our stay at Bailey Cottage and it certainly didnt disappoint. Such a wonderful home from home to spend our week. James, a very kind host, made sure we had useful information before we arrived and made sure everything was ok when we were there. Bailey Cottage has everything you need for a very comfortable stay, we really enjoyed the games table table tennis, pool & air hockey as well, such a great idea! It is also in a great position for exploring the area and we really liked the fact we could walk somewhere for a meal. We would definitely recommend the Jolly Sailor! We thoroughly recommend BaileyCottage and are looking forward to a return visit! Thank you James.
Adriana
