"Powder Keg Cottage was way beyond our expectations. Jane was very welcoming and helpful, the house was lovely and clean and the welcome pack was a really nice touch. In all our time renting holiday homes around the country and abroad, we would say that Powder Keg would definitely feature in our top three. We would recommend the Jolly Roger pub to any future visitors, wonderful service and excellent food. Thank you once again for your professional support and assistance and wishing you a happy and prosperous New Year."

"We just wanted to thank you for the swift return of our deposit after our recent stay at Powder Keg Cottage, and to let you know how very much we enjoyed it. Although we were only there for two days, we really felt as if we'd had a lovely break. The place was charming and the view was amazing. Please pass on our thanks to Jane, the owner, as it was so lovely and clean and welcoming. We really hope to be able to come back one day and spend a little longer there."

"The cottage was really good and what can you say about it's location other than fantastic. Meal in Jolly Roger bar that evening, as good as you said. Went a second time and used the restaurant, best meals we have had in ages. Walked everywhere, even down to Southsea Castle and beyond. Did all the sights and generally had a great time.
Many thanks for all your help when booking and advice on eating places locally."

“We would like to use this opportunity to express our gratitude to Jane for allowing us to stay in her lovely home for a week. It was indeed a home away from home with a heavenly and serene view. The whole arrangement by Harrington Homes was excellent and we received very much value for money. The kids kept busy playing the games and watching the classic collection of DVDs. The music system was completely unexpected and I was delighted to have brought my IPOD along. We hope to use Harringtons again when we are next on the South Coast."
Dr Ogunremi (August 2009)
“I would like to say on behalf of my family how much we enjoyed our stay at Powder Keg. Jane made us feel very welcome. The cottage was absolutely spotless, more like a show home than a rented cottage. Everything stated for the cottage details were accurate - even down to being able to feed the swan at the bottom of the patio! We had a wonderful time and really didn't want to leave on Saturday."
Ann Sneath (June 2009)
The cottage was ideal! There was so much to see from the cottage that I didn't have to keep driving to different places. The Jolly Roger was ideal thank you so much for recommending it. Also thank you so much for organising the private chef for Sunday lunch. Can I just reiterate how very grateful we are to you for all the help and organising that you have done to make my Mom & Dads holiday so memorable, thank you so very much.
Ann Moore (May 2009)
"We had a lovely stay at Powder Keg Cottage, it certainly lived up to our expectations. The setting is wonderful and we were mesmerised by the various nautical comings and goings and the birdlife in front of the cottage."
Catherine Johns (April 2009)
"Powder Keg Cottage proved ideal for what we required. The welcome was warm and very helpful, ensuring that we had everything that we needed on arrival. The view over the harbour is magnificent. The house is very well decorated and furnished. The up to date TV, sound equipment, SatNav and Broadband were nice extras."
Barry Wilkinson (January 2009)
"We have just arrived back home and are already missing the views across the harbour. We never closed the curtains once during our stay for fear of missing something. Thanks for all the arrangements, it was a fantastic cottage."
Tony Weatherburn (November 2008)
"Had a really great weekend, the house was fab, will book again in future."
Antonia Evans (November 2008)
"The holiday was lovely, the welcome hamper with the tea/coffee/wine & chocolates we weren't expecting and a lovely box of chocolates was very nice. Powder Keg Cottage was spotless and the views were wonderful. The Jolly Roger pub became a friend, the place was lovely and we enjoyed the food in there too. We hope to be back next year."
Gaynor Gaughan (August 2008)
"Powder Keg Cottage was great ! We wasted many an hour watching the world sail past. The cottage was extremely well equipped – and the sat nav kept the children occupied. It would have been lovely to have been able to stay longer."
Kevin Smith (August 2008)
