Family-friendly holiday rentals in Fareham

Me and my family stayed here for my mums birthday for the weekend. It was absolutely the most perfect place to be. Beautiful, spacious and modern house. With 3 bathrooms & robes for all of us. A very generous ampunt of cookery, pots, pans, glasses for us to use, which made it easier to cook in the kitchen. Also had salt, pepper, tea and a few bits of food for us to use. We travel a lot, and this is more than any other airbnb host has given us. The Jacuzzi was the highlight of our trip, so relaxing and easy to use. The rooms were neat and the beds and beddings were so soft and comfortable, I had a great sleep here. The house had a good heating system, an easy to use oven and cooker. The location was perfect. In a quite street, but a few mins from busy areas, shopping markets, the mall, the beach, and good restaurants. The host George was also very responsive. I have so much more great things I can say about this place. I highly recommend anyone to come and experience it for yourselves.

A fantastic get away location. We enjoyed this house as a group of 5 friends. Peaceful and quiet surrounded by countryside. Andy gave us some advice about walks and we decided to head to Chichester harbour. From there we walked up the harbour to Apuldram where there is a great pub, the Crown and Anchor, with excellent food. The house itself is well equipped, bathrooms were nice and kitchen had everything we needed. Last but not least - the hot tub! We enjoyed this every evening of our stay.

Good spot, good location close to the beach. Lots of rooms to host and ample room

Wonderful hosts, kind, flexible, excellent communication and over and above to help with ferry and arrange excellent sauna as well as hot tub. Sauna so beautifully designed with the most incredible view. Will definitely be back asap. The hot tub and garden was lovely too. Cosy fire in the cottage and all mod cons needed. Very happy with our stay can’t wait to return.

The perfect couple of days to unplug and have time in nature. It was exactly as described and shown. Super cosy, clean, private and was everything we were looking for. We will definitely be back again. Thank you

What a wonderful place to stay. The peace I sought was found, the relaxation that was so much needed was there and very much welcomed. Days spent walking in the New Forest were finished with a chilled glass of wine in the hot tub that was tended daily by a really lovely chap. The lodge was spacious, clean and comfortable with the basics of equipment there for your use, which is helpful. The whole experience is one I shall repeat and have already begun to tell others to check it out too

Mark and Maria’s place was an absolute dream to stay in. We booked it very last minute on the day due to our previous booking cancellation. They were very responsive and understanding about what happened to our previous booking. The place is very good for families. It is spacious and clean and a peaceful area. There is a close Sainsbury’s and KFC so quite convenient for quick food shopping. The best part of the place is the amazing hot tub. It’s very good for winter and for friends to chill with. We are very thankful for Mark and Maria as the angels who rescued our almost disastrous minibreak. Thanks and definitely highly recommended.

We had a great stay over new years. We were two small families and found the space to be ideal. We ate at the local pub twice during our stay which served good quality food. It was a nice break

Anne-Marie was a brilliant, accommodating and communicative host. We had a lovely stay in her very clean, functional and cosy annex cottage. She was great at making sure we were comfortable and on hand for any questions. A super host. Thank you !

We enjoyed a very beautiful and peaceful few nights in this wonderful location. The cottage itself was amazing both in the finishes and the historic charm. We walked around the ground and checked out all of the horses, alongside feeding the very friendly birds - my 4 year old daughter really liked it. During the evenings we had a roaring fire in the living room, and greatly enjoyed cooking with the Aga. Hilary is a great communicator and very responsive, I would absolutely recommend this place and we look forward to returning

This home is simply idyllic - the photos don’t do it justice. The most perfect spot with ponies and donkeys outside your window. The house is so well appointed with two of everything you’d need. And really lovely touches like games, cookbooks, grocery cupboard and a guitar. The bedrooms are divine - uber comfy beds and bedding. The bathrooms are luxurious. We hired a weekend in January for a special family birthday and all generations fully enjoyed the house. We were appreciative that this is a eco house. Paul is a brilliant host - super responsive and helpful. The only issue was having to leave - but we’ll definitely be back.

We spent a few days leading up to the New Year cerebrating my husband’s illy birthday and used Chichester as a location all of the family could get to easily as the train station is a few minutes walk away. From the very start Amanda & Dominic were amazing hosts and gave us great instructions on how to get in to the property and answered all of my pre-visit questions very quickly. We loved our stay in their home that literally wrapped itself around us the moment we entered, we all said we felt so comfortable there and the log fire was just so inviting and cosy. Amanda & Dominic were such lovely people that we had the pleasure of meeting . We would definitely stay again and recommend their home without hesitation.

Spent a wonderful few days celebrating a special birthday. The cottage was wonderful in an exceptional location for walking and recharging the batteries and enjoying a relaxing time away. Would fully recommend the cottage and location for anyone wishing for relaxation and taking time out. The scenery is enchanting and changes throughout the day. Loved everything about the time away. Thank you Lindy x

This was my second visit and met all my expectations. Set in the midst of a beautiful meadow surrounded by fields and woods yet a short distance from Ryde and fab beaches. It is a great location to recharge and reset. The All Seasons yurt is clean and well equipped for the cooler weather with cosy wood burner and a super comfy bed, and plenty of throws. The Kitchen is adequately supplied and Sarah provided a hamper of fresh produce on arrival. Sarah and Sue are warm and approachable. They clearly take a lot of pride in the upkeep of the yurt and surrounding meadow. It was all beautifully maintained. Very dog friendly too. There is plenty of parking and wheelbarrows to take stuff down. The shop is well stocked with extra logs, charcoal, wellies, homemade jams, chutneys, smoked garlic, marshmallows and freshly laid eggs. I cant recommend Fernhill Meadow highly enough, the perfect retreat. I will definitely be back.

What a fantastic oasis of tranquility to visit. Terry and Jenny are excellent hosts and could not do more for you. The huts were all styled beautifully and were spotlessly clean. The attention to detail is fantastic and Jenny has thought of everything. Sitting by the firepit at night, with a glass in hand listening to the owls was priceless. Florence, Hector and the dogs were just an added bonus. We will definitely return.

The apartment is in an unbeatable location, right on Southsea Common and close to restaurants, shops and museums. It's also huge, with big bedrooms and a really spacious open-plan kitchen and lounge area. The view from the lounge is stunning - watching the ships whilst having a cup of tea is a captivating! The only minor down-side was parking is on-street (or a close-by public car park) and it was tricky to find a space. However, it was the weekend before Christmas and the area was busy with parties, so it may be fine normally. Jane was very helpful and responsive - make sure you call her when you arrive so she can activate your parking permit. In summary, a really great place to stay - very highly recommended!

We loved our stay at the Party Barn. Katie was incredibly helpful with local recommendations and letting us use her lovely warm pool (set hours in the late afternoon, but she also gave us lots of flexibility during the day around her swimming lessons). Our kids loved visiting the pigs and sheep. The barn was very comfortable and we felt right at home there immediately. I'm sure we will be back. Thank you Katie!

Absolutely loved staying here! The place was incredibly clean, and the park had lots of things to do. Had an amazing sleep here as the beds were so comfortable, sheets were fresh and clean, and the environment was very quiet. Would stay here again!

Lovely caravan in a beautiful location. So close to the beach. The caravan had everything we needed and was clean and comfortable.

We had a wonderful stay with all our family to celebrate a special birthday - we loved the house, all able to eat together around the table was wonderful, enjoying chatting and drinking in the beautiful lounge and the younger ones loved the hot tub and braver ones the swimming pool. Great position for all the lovely New Forest areas and walks

Just loved our stay at Susies cottage. Really comfortable and welcoming., and the table tennis table and pool table were a definite hit. There are lots of games books and a lovely garden. Cosy fire. Susie is a lovely host..

Just had a wonderful 2 night stay with our 3 young children. It was a cosy and homely base for our exploring, and we thought the added extras of tea/coffee/biscuits were lovely. We hope to return in future :) thank you!

Had a lovely stay with family. Everyone had a great time and enjoyed the property and surrounds. The living area was inviting and convivial with a cosy log fire. The host was very friendly, helpful and responsive, going out of her way to accommodate and make our stay memorable. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic location for walking & exploring. The barn is beautifully presented and stylishly furnished. Very spacious. Loved seeing the Llamas on our morning walk with our dog - on our doorstep. The New Inn pub down the road - Victoria’s tip - awesome, friendly, great food at a sensible price - try the venison or brill filets! Our only regret was that we didn’t stay for longer. Thank you team Shalfleet Farm.
