Compass Cottage , Emsworth - a cottage that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

We loved staying at this lovely little cottage. Whether it be looking out onto the water watching the swans go by, or warming toes on the open fire... The cottage is tastefully decorated and furniture of of good quality. We especially appreciated the super comfortable bed. It is very well equipped containing all that we needed, if we had to note anything a dishwasher and a hoover would enhance cleanliness. The property is well maintained everything was in good working order. Overall cleanliness was very good. I would say that the main point would be the utensils, pans and cutlery were not very clean... perhaps having a dishwasher would solve this. There was some dust under beds and in corners, ...I would have cleaned but there was no hoover and we did not find a dustpan until the end of our stay. The bedroom windows were in need of a little extra cleaning... the downfall of having such an inviting view!!! We really appreciated the personalised brochure left by Carol and Carlos. It was a lovely touch to leave biscuits and milk. We would appreciated having an extra roll of toilet paper and little more washing up liquid. The whole property is extremely cosy and welcoming and we were very comfortable during our stay... thank you for hosting us and we hope that you will welcome us back next time we come.

We enjoyed our stay at the above cottage very much and Emsworth is a delightful village. The Kings Arms was a very good pub

Great little property, well located and great condition.

Everything we needed….and location central and very scenic

We had a very enjoyable short break at Compass Cottage. The standout in the property was the quality of the beds - we slept extremely well in the very comfy mattresses! The cottage also benefits from excellent double glazing which almost removes the traffic noise from Main Road. Overall the property was comfy and cosy and we enjoyed staying in as much as we did going out and exploring the surrounding area. Would highly recommend.

A comfortable little cottage, well layed out for the size of property. Agents polite and very helpfull. I would have liked a bigger a better mirror for the perpous of shaving. Looking forward to returning to Compass cottage. Geoff and Joan Rogers

Really cosy cottage - comfy beds - kitchen well equipped. But steep staircase might be a hazzle.....

Great little cottage for local exploring. Well equipped and a good distance to local walks and shops. Parking very restricted, as per owners notes, and a red van parked outside the front window for the duration of my stay, blocking the view of the millpond. Shower restrictive for anyone over 5’6. Otherwise a pleasant stay.

Clean, comfortable cottage in an excellent location. We used the trains to go on many trips rather than move the car. The mill pond path was quite narrow in places but we managed to park quite close to the cottage. The kitchen was the best equipped in any we stayed (apart from a dishwasher) and the downstairs loo took some time to get used to. Overall the cottage was very warm and there was ample hot water - perfect for a winter break.

A colleague stayed here for three weeks whilst on a work project based in Emsworth, He thoroughly enjoyed his stay due to fab location, water view, walking distance to work venue and Emsworth town as well as numerous walks by the water. He hopes to be back.

As my brother lives in the area we knew the location so no problem finding it. The cottage was cosy with a lovely bright kitchen and dining area and pretty well furnished bedrooms. Stairs are steep but no surprise in a cottage and we managed very well. Downstairs bathroom does take getting used to but was fine. Surrounding area is brilliant, the village has everything and more within a 10 minute stroll and we enjoyed days out in Portsmouth Harbour, more there than you can see in a day to be honest and also Chichester. We used the train to get to both places so no worries about parking. We did take a car ride to Bosham which is very pretty and worth a visit. If you just want to stay in Emsworth there are lots of walks and interesting little shops to browse or just sit and relax looking at the water. Definitely recommend.

The weather was very hot and airless. The cottage would benefit from a fan in each bedroom. And the fact that the stairs are very steep and the bathroom is downstairs perhaps needs to be more prominently explained. Otherwise, the cottage is well appointed and in a great location.
