Grove Lodge - a house that sleeps 13 guests in 5 bedrooms

Last Minute Availability - Enquire Now!

Grove Lodge is a superb 5 bedroom chalet style detached property situated within the southern coastal town of Gosport, Hampshire, a seaside peninsular with over 24 miles of waterfront access. The house has been refurbished and furnished to a good 4* star standard and is within a 5 minute drive of Stokes Bay beach and a short walk into town where the ferry can take you for a short 4 minute ride to Portsmouth and the wonderful Gunwharf Quays.

Accommodation

Three of the lovely double bedrooms have superior quality king size five foot double beds which can separate to create 2 singles, the fourth a four foot double bed and the fifth a single bed. All beds are made up with crisp white cotton linen and fresh white towels prior to our guests arrival. Each 1st floor bedroom has the option of additional sleeping if required in comfy beds, plus there is a double and single ground floor bedroom for those that do not fancy the stairs. The property can sleep up to 13 guests in the bedrooms, plus the 3 upstairs bedrooms can comfortably accommodate children's cots on request, that can be supplied at no extra cost.

The property boasts three high spec bathrooms with the master bedroom accommodating a generous sized en-suite with a large corner bath and separate shower cubicle. The main communal 1st floor bathroom has a bath and separate shower and the ground floor double bedroom has an en-suite shower room. Plus there is a ground floor cloakroom toilet.

The kitchen is fully equipped for self catering, plus a separate utility room with washing machine and tumble dryer and is situated adjacent to the open plan dining room which is home to a large 12 seater dining table. When not used for dining this table converts to a table tennis or pool table to keep young and old amused for hours.

The lounge is off the main centre hallway accommodating a large corner sofa plus a separate smaller sofa and a smart flat screen TV.

Also off the kitchen is a comfortable sized conservatory, housing a fridge/freezer, with both the conservatory and the kitchen leading onto a lovely enclosed garden with mature shrubs and trees, plus a chalet style wooden summerhouse and a small child's Wendy House. You can also hire in a Hot Tub, if desired. (Conditions apply - please contact us for further details).

Our prices advertised on our website are for up to 13 guests with all linen and towels provided, which are changed weekly with a mid week maid service available on request. Child cots, highchairs and stairgates also available at no extra cost. (If cots are provided guests are asked to please bring their own child's bedding).

Grove Lodge is pet friendly and we warmly welcome up to 3 medium sized well behaved four legged friends at an additional cost of £25 each per dog, per week/part week. (However, to be fair to our neighbours no continuous barkers please).

All our properties are located within residential areas so we do have neighbours whom we need to consider. If you feel you could comfortably monitor noise levels (in particular out in the gardens and outside areas into the evenings) then we would love to have you stay and have had countless group gatherings who have had a great time with us at our properties. If however you feel that it would not be possible to monitor noise levels, then you may wish to consider something more rural, without neighbours.

​In addition to the rental cost we do take a £500 refundable damages deposit, which is fully refundable within 7 working days of your departure, obviously subject to no significant damages or excessive cleaning.

​​Some of our properties have age restrictions, such as where we feel it would not be suitable for younger all adult groups, such as within quiet residential areas where noise may be an issue.

​All bookings are subject to Owners' Discretion

Family get together
8 adults aged from 25 to 63! Chance for annual family get together. Lovely comfy house, plenty of room for us all to be together or sit quietly. Lovely garden with lots of squirrels to watch scurrying around & a nice park opposite too! Lovely stroll to the ferry and short crossing over to Gunwharf for a bit of retail therapy, lunch and boat watching! Nice dining table for evening of board games! Really comfy beds and good showers & baths! Easy to get a take away delivered and clear instructions from owner where nearest services are should they be needed. Everyone agreed it was a great weekend in an ideal spot!

Disappointed
Photos on Vrbo make the rooms look bigger than they are, Freezer was frozen and could not be used, the King size beds are singles pushed together, Garden furniture needs updating, garden chairs had green algae on them,Rubbish bins were 3 quarters full when we arrived. The fridge is not big enough for the amount of people staying in the property, The bbq needs updating had to swap the control knobs round to turn it on, we have stayed in better properties for me I think the property is overpriced. We made the most of our family weekend but unfortunately would not return

Well placed and well laid out
This was ideal for us, a group of recycled teenagers. Well placed for the ferry and the local buses. The house was ideal with a downstairs en suite for those who have a difficulty with stairs.

Great house and location to say visit peppa world but could be cleaner.
Even though a lovely size house we were 7 adults, 4 children & 3 dogs, the house could be cleaner i.e carpets needed a good clean downstairs and upstairs. Also would have been nice to have been left a bucket and fresh mop as what was given didn't do the job and after having baths/showers our feet were bogging. I know some might say cleaning when your on holiday but we treated this like our own home so cleaned up after ourselves. More so as we have 2 one yr olds who love to pick things up from the floor. The 5yr old and 2yr old couldn't use the trampoline as full of bird poo (as positioned under a huge tree). Did clean it but next day exactly the same so again didn't want to risk the children being ill. Maybe owner is not aware of all above as through letting agency.

Excellent property for groups
We had a great time at this property - the space was great, even better than the photos, and the addition of the trampoline and children’s toys in the back garden kept our little ones entertained for hours. The house was clean and well equipped for a big group, and the rooms were spacious enough to add blow up beds / travel cots where needed. We also hired a hot tub for the property while we were there which was very easy to organise with the owner. The location is also great - a 20 min walk with the children to the Gosport ferry across to portsmouth… and lots of shops and cafes in easy walking distance.

Amazing property with friendly owners!
I booked this property to celebrate my birthday with friends, we all had an amazing time! There was plenty of room for everyone, even around the dining table. The property was very clean and had great appliances, the only thing that was missing is a dishwasher. The location was perfect for our group, it's close to loads of shops and the ferry to Portsmouth is in walking distance. The owner of the property was excellent, very attentive and friendly. Overall it was a fantastic holiday at a great location, we will definitely be back in the future!
